It only takes five minutes of leakedThe Sims 5footage for us to know we’ll be cancelling real life plans left, right, and centre so we can be with our glorious creations. Social lives? Never heard of them.
I’ll admit, I’ve not got a thriving social life anyway – I’m too busy playing through yet another run ofBaldur’s Gate 3(don’t shame me), as well as starting up a new life inStardew Valleysince update 1.6. Basically, my schedule is packed.
Yet, I already know thatThe Sims5is going to take over my life when it launches. Although the video in question –as seen viaDSO Gaming – is short in length, the music, the setup, it all has us immediately wanting to book a day off work and jump back into playing God.

Speaking ofThe Sims, we’re still in love with living our cottagecore dreams
TheEAgame is still some time away from launching, and so the footage you see should be appreciated as early stages of development only. Nevertheless, what we see gives us hope thatThe Sims 5will take the best bits of bothThe Sims 3and4to give us a superior experience.

As we already know, the new game will be free to play, meaning that DLC and extensions will likely lurk behind paywalls. Still, it’s a small price to pay when you can make and break lives with a couple of clicks of your mouse.
For now, we have no launch date forThe Sims 5, otherwise known as Project Rene. However, we’ll be sure to keep you updated as we learn more.
