While speaking with Geoff Keighley at VentureBeat's GamesBeat Summit 2021, Chief Studios Officer at EA, Laura Miele, gave a roundabout confirmation. Whenever EA is ready to unveil The Sims 5, there's a lot to be learned from the failures and successes of Sims 4, and its expansions would be a pretty good place to start. It looks like EA has been teasing The Sims 5. After years of ongoing expansions, updates, and game packs, that's all been turned around by developer Maxis, creating a strong foundation for where the future of the franchise could go.
The Sims 4 wasn't always the juggernaut that it's slowly become in fact, at launch it was critically panned for having a severe lack of content and depth, particularly compared to The Sims 3. However, that doesn't mean the highly anticipated life simulation sequel isn't already in early stages of development considering The Sims 4 originally released for PC back in 2014, before being ported to PS4 and Xbox One in 2017. EA's the next fiscal year will continue to focus on the success of live-service games such as Apex: Legends, FIFA, and predecessor, The Sims 4.
The Sims 5 is yet to be announced, and based on the results of EA's latest quarterly earnings call with its investors, it could still be a while off.
