EA and Maxis have announced that The Sims 4 will be coming to PS4 and Xbox One worldwide on November 17th. The Sims 4 will bring the same emotional connection our PC players cherish to console players. Fans will enjoy being empowered to create and control people in a vibrant virtual world as they experience life’s unpredictable, entertaining moments along the way.

The console version will include the core experience along with all post-release content released for the previously exclusive PC/Mac version. Those who pre-order the console version of The Sims 4 will receive the Perfect Patio Stuff pack which includes hot tubs and a handful of bonus décor.

There’s also a Deluxe Party Edition available for pre-order which not only includes the aforementioned Perfect Patio Stuff pack but also includes a three-days early access. The Deluxe Party Edition also includes additional content like a Flaming Tiki Bar, outrageous costumes, silly animal hats.

“The addition of a console-version of The Sims 4 has been long-awaited by fans and newcomers alike, and we at Maxis are beyond excited to bring The Sims to new platforms,” said Executive Producer, Lyndsay Pearson. “The game delivers a beautiful The Sims experience on console and comes packed with tons of the fan-favourite content, so players can look forward to the unique gameplay, self-expression, and fun that have come to be tentpoles of The Sims brand. The possibilities to play with life are as endless as the players’ creativity.”
