EA will seemingly make The Sims 5, or Project Rene as it's currently officially known, a free to play game that allows user generated content in a monetisation model similar to Fortnite's.

The candidate will "own pricing of all content in this free-to-enter game, ensuring we have an optimal pricing and content architecture [and] provide guidance to content teams on in-game content needs to meet player demand.

Not much different than Sims 4’s abundance of DLCs, then.

Not much different than Sims 4’s abundance of DLCs, then.

Plus the Sims 4 base game is already free. So basically more of the same?

As a series the Sims has allowed many small, independent creators to express themselves and make money off their creations; I hope this continues with the Sims 5.
