Sim3 Generation Expansion Pack Coming in May

Posted on April 14, 2011

Electronic Arts has announced that The Sims 3 Generations expansion pack is in development and will hit stores worldwide this spring. Amazon.com has a May 31, 2011 date on its product listing.

The expansion pack will offer many new ways for players to express their Sims. Players will also be able to capture and keep track of their Sims' life moments with in-game cameras. These captured moments can be uploaded on TheSims3.com and Facebook.

Players start off in childhood, where they can take dance classes, misbehave with an imaginary friend or goof around in themed tree houses. Players may then move on to embrace the drama of the teen years by pulling elaborate pranks such as exploding toilets, color dye in the shower or ding dong ditch, become prom king or queen, or forget the school dance and throw a party at their parents' house. As adult Sims, players can attend or plan bachelor and bachelorette parties, throw lavish weddings, and go through a mid-life crisis.

Scott Evans, General Manager of The Sims Studio at EA, says, "The Sims 3 Generations includes new gameplay experiences and content that our community has been requesting for years including bunk beds, expansive weddings, midlife crises and more. Imagine booby trapping a friend's toilet or turning your imaginary friend into a real person, throwing bachelor or bachelorette parties, all to spend your elder Sims years reminiscing about the past."
