The Sims Hosts Live Broadcast Featuring Exclusive Reveals, Producer Q&As and a Live Gameplay Demo
Today, The Sims hosted a live broadcast where viewers tuned in to hear exciting news and get an in-depth look at the franchise’s newest video games releasing this year. Included in the show was a live gameplay demo of the newest expansion pack from The Sims 3 – Island Paradise, as well as the reveal of the next stuff pack, The Sims 3 Movie Stuff and the all-new world from The Sims 3 Store, Dragon Valley. Additionally the audience was able to interact with members of The Sims development team through Q&A sessions, comment boards, polls and giveaways.
The Sims 3 Island Paradise kicked-off the show with a deep dive demo featuring resort management, a brand new feature appearing for the first time in The Sims 3 PC gaming franchise. Players will now be able to build, own and manage their own resort, while making a little money on the side. In order to run a successful resort, players will need to impress their guests while maintaining their bottom line. In addition to owning and managing resorts, The Sims 3 Island Paradise also gives players the ability to take the helm of a houseboat and live on the water, dive beneath the waves and explore the underwater world, take to the beach and jet set to new islands and more. The Sims 3 Island Paradise is currently available for pre-order. Players who pre-order will receive the Limited Edition version of the game that includes the Island Survival Pack – a new set of content that offers players all the necessities needed for their Sims to scrape an existence on a deserted island. The Sims 3 Island Paradise drops anchor June 27 in Australia and June 28 in New Zealand, 2013. Learn more at http://thesims.com/the-sims-3-island-paradise.
