Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens for the delivery of clues on the way! CTOnews.com Sept. 13, EA released a blog today revealing some key details about the Sims 5: the code name Project Rene; ontology is free and unsubscribed, but will sell content and combination packages; provide single-player and multiplayer games; support mobile devices; and will co-exist with the Sims 4.

Lyndsay Pearson, creative vice president of the Sims series, said: "We intend to make Project Rene free to download, which means that when it is ready and fully open to our players, people will be able to join and play Project Rene as soon as possible without having to subscribe to or buy core games and energy mechanisms."

"We want to make it easy for you to invite friends to join us, which means opening the invitation to everyone."

She added: "We are developing the game in different ways and moving forward with everyone, which means there will be many different stages of development, which may include everything from closed invitations and small-scale public testing to large-scale early experiences."

"Yes, when Project Rene is ready, it will be available for free download."

She also said that Project Rene will not be as comprehensive as the Sims 4, which has been expanded several times with new content since its release in 2014.

"We want to focus on creating a colorful and cohesive gaming experience from the start, so it certainly won't have what you already have in the Sims 4, but we will add new experiences and content to Project Rene over time."

"in addition to regular updates to the core games, we will also sell content packages, but we want to change the mix a little bit," she explained. So, let me give you an example. In the Sims 4, the only way to experience the desired weather is to buy the season. Now, in "Project Rene", we may provide everyone with a basic weather experience for free. Then you can also buy a bag and focus on winter sports, such as ice dancing or snowman building competitions. "

"it means that in the future, we can also use wind, rain or clouds as other theme packages. it is too early to know where we will draw boundaries, but it is important for us to reduce those game barriers and provide everyone with the broadest shared system, because it feels like the most solid foundation."

She added: "Project Rene and the Sims 4 will continue to coexist. We plan to support both, and we will continue to bring more exciting content to the Sims 4 for the foreseeable future."

According to previous reports from CTOnews.com, in April this year, EA announced that the Sims 4 "covers more than 7000 players worldwide." EA CEO Andrew Wilson said last week that the company plans to significantly increase its focus on a small number of large online games in the coming years.

The publisher will invest "disproportionately" in "large online gaming communities" such as EA Sports FC, Apex Legends and the Sims, which Wilson sees potential for "exponential growth".
