The Sims Is Celebrating Its 25th Birthday with 25 Free New Gifts!

The Sims is turning 25, and Electronic Arts is pulling out all the stops to celebrate this iconic franchise, which has evolved from a SimCity spin-off into a beloved storytelling game. Whether you're a seasoned player or just jumped in recently, there's no denying the impact The Sims has had on our gaming lives.

What's The Sims Planning for Its 25th Birthday?

Get ready for a month-long party because The Sims is rolling out 25 days of free gifts! From now until the end of February 2025, log in daily to claim your unique gift, as each one is available for just one day. It's EA's way of saying thanks for 25 years of loyalty and fun.

But the celebrations don't stop there. EA is going big across the entire Sims franchise with updates, rereleases, special events, and fresh content. Whether you're into building, storytelling, or just chilling with your Sims, there's something for everyone.

The Sims Mobile is getting in on the action too, offering two free gifts for anyone who logs in during its birthday week, kicking off on March 4th. And if you're a music fan, you're in for a treat—Electronic Arts has teamed up with Spotify to curate the ultimate Sims playlist, featuring all the iconic hits that have graced the game over the years.

It's a Blast from the Past!

Step back into the 2000s with The Sims FreePlay, which is diving deep into nostalgia with content that screams early 2000s—from chunky flip phones to frosted tips and velour tracksuits.

Get ready for two new live events: The One with the Coffee Shop and Reality Island, both of which will transport you back in time. Plus, the Social Town update introduces new homes, a helicopter, and a museum filled with FreePlay's rich history for you to explore.

So, don't miss out on the festivities! Head over to the Google Play Store to see what's happening in The Sims Mobile and FreePlay.
