Hey everyone I just realized that the Sims 4 will release its tenth EP this year. The final EP for Sims 3 was EP 11.
which EP do you think will be the final for Sims 4? I only did four choices because I wanted to keep it realistic haha.
depends what they do - I waited until Sims 4 had toddlers as I wouldn't consider buying it until they had sorted that out plus the editable sims (as I saw on YouTube vids) were pretty bad in the early days, so I waited until 2017 to buy Sims 4 so it may take me that long to buy sims 5
I think they have at least one year left. Average about 2 per year so... yeah that's 12. I wouldn't be surprised though if it went longer and was more than 13.
I'm going with more than 13, we have been getting 2 EPs a year for the last 3 years
EP1 Get to Work Mar 31, 2015
EP2 Get Together Dec 8, 2015
EP3 City Living Nov 1, 2016
EP4 Cats and Dogs Nov 10, 2017
EP5 Seasons Jun 22, 2018
EP6 Get Famous Nov 16, 2018
EP7 Island Living Jun 21, 2019
EP8 Discover University Nov 15, 2019
EP9 Eco Lifestyle Jun 5, 2020
EP10 Unannounced EP 2020
So, one more this year
2 next year (in 2021)
I think TS5 will be announced next year for release in 2022
2 the following year (in 2022)
I'm thinking 13ish. I also kind of expect TS5 (if there is going to be a TS5) to be something different from what they've been doing, like a multiplayer version or Switch version. I hope it will be like TS4 only with updated engines and things. I'm not in a big rush to repurchase the entire game again though.

Right, especially with all of the money we spent on packs
Probably more still will come, I know everyone is waiting for ts5 but to be honest I won't be buying that until I see some positive comments about it on the forum. I won't play an online game unless it has an option and given how watered down the ts4 has become and how it lacks family game play, supernaturals and a host of other things. (Mainly you can't cuddle on the bed, but go to Battu and you can meet a sim with a gun! (Guns in a game with a teen rating, they dont' belong in the Sims, sorry.) I miss the togetherness of family sims, such as adults playing actual games with kids. I'm not going on, Sims 2 and 3 nailed all of these things, Sims 4 is a just a hook up game for ya sims. I've had enough.
I remain hopeful TS4 will end next year and TS5 be announced (early) but they will probably have time to churn out two tiny EPs with maybe a tiny world. And the huge patch coming in Dec. will probably appease a lot of people and help the falling prices caused by half done packs like SW. Does no one ever notice but me they do a huge patch to get a new player and it's usually pc so they can pat themselves on the back, and then everyone thinks it was about the players when really it was all about money when players start dropping off like flies.

ETA: although it isn’t exactly clear what year it will be announced in. It’s a PS issue dating from May this year. The Sims 5 has a 12+ months expected release date according to the magazine, so I don’t think we’ll see it until 2022.
Around 16-18 will be the last one and it will be the last EP before The Sims cancellation.
I don't believe they'll be cancelled, I just think the series is going to go downhill and downhill AND that's when they'll give us things the community wants like hotels, cars, better babies, better gameplay and whatnot.

ooh really? where did you see that? i'm kinda outta the loop lol.
@Nate_Whiplash1
ahh ok thanks
After that, EA's shareholders are going to start wonder why Maxis doesn't have anything for the new consoles.

Unreliable.
I trust Playstation when they say that TS5 is TBA. They dont just pull stuff from a hat. They're aware of upcoming games and i believe them.

I don’t believe for one second that there will be a cancellation. Perhaps a delay due to unforeseen circumstances, but I can’t see them cancel TS5...
