Presumably, the next Sims game won't be called either 'Project Rene' or 'The Sims 5' and will have a totally different name that communicates the way that Maxis has been referring to it as the 'next generation' of Sims and a 'creative platform.' Does The Sims 5 have a release date?Įlectronic Arts has not given a release date or year for the next Sims game yet. Usually these are used internally to talk about a game before it's been announced, but occasionally developers will use these titles publicly too. As Maxis explained, Project Rene is essentially the codename for the next Sims game.
So is Project Rene the name of The Sims 5?įor now, yes, but likely not forever.
