The Sims 4 has been a favorite game for many over the past decade, but we can all agree that it’s time for a new Sims game. Luckily for us, there was recently a considerable leak that involves the release of the Sims 5 and some new and exciting features that we’ll have to look forward to. We got a sneak peek into a few things that gave us an idea of when the game would be released, whether or not multiplayer would be involved, what Project Rene is, and even some info on mobile gaming. Keep reading to learn everything we know about leaks, rumors, features, and more about The Sims 5!
The Sims 5 Release Date
Currently, there’s no set release date for The Sims 5. However, we do have an idea of when it may be coming out. Though, there is no solid proof. There’s been a rumor that Electronic Arts and Maxis have collaborated on a game for the last 3 to 4 years, so The Sims 5 might be in the developmental stages at this point. There was even an article posted 3 years ago with Maxis secretly working on The Sims 5, but that’s still only a rumor.
However, The Sims: Project Rene was confirmed to be in easy development, but there’s nothing to say that The Sims: Project Rene is The Sims 5. Will it be someday? Possibly. Can we know for sure? Nope.
Will The Sims 5 Be Similar to The Sims 4?
While it is possible that The Sims 5 could be another Revamped version of The Sims games that we all know and love, there has been a statement regarding the content of The Sims: Project Rene. The new The Sims game is said to be “Fresh and Innovative.” Not much more has been said regarding the content of the upcoming game.
Loads of fans have their own ideas of what they hope the content will be like. Some fans were hoping for a VR experience, while others were hoping for a standalone online game, similar to The Elder Scrolls: Online following Skyrim. However, Electronic Arts explicitly said they were coming at The Sims: Project Rene from an entirely new approach, so anything could be in the works at this point.

The Sims: Project Rene Leaks
There have been a couple of leaks regarding The Sims: Project Rene, but nothing all that interesting. On November 1st, 2022, Tom Henderson revealed that the playtest for The Sims: Project Rene had been hacked and pirated by somebody who had gained access to testing. The hacker revealed a couple of crucial details. First of all, the game is entirely unprotected by encryption, and second, the game is currently running on Unreal Engine. It was also claimed by Sayan Majumder that The Sims: Project Rene and/or The Sims 5 would almost 100% be available on mobile devices.
This is all we can go on until the game is finally released. Hopefully, we will get some solid information soon regarding The Sims: Project Rene and The Sims 5!
