Maxis producer: If Sims 4 isn't successful, there's no Sims 5

4.7
EA isn't thinking about the next Sims game at all, but the future of the series hinges on The Sims 4 performing well, Maxis producer Grant Rodiek said on the official Sims forum.

"We're not working on Sims 5," Rodiek said. "We're not thinking about Sims 5. If Sims 4 isn't successful, there won't be a Sims 5." This isn't an absolute credo, however – when another fan asked for clarification on that statement, Rodiek said, "It's not all or nothing, per se, but something has to pay for 5."

The Sims 4 topped the UK charts last week. We've been playing it as an MTV's Real World simulator, with members of the Joystiq staff living together, cooking for each other, working and building rocket ships.

UnD3aD_Stealth its just the same as other ones in my opinion


They're not. You've got to play em all to see the differences.


I've played most of them, they're different but in the end it's the same bland old game.

Yoke I have seen the game die in popularity over the years. Game gets repetitive IMO


It's pretty much the same thing everytime they release it. Sometimes they add different expansion DLC's

I thought when Youtubers posted this over the weekend they were replaying this since it looks so similar to Sims 3.
