Project René: Leaked images will have The Sims fans tearing their hair out

Earlier this month, Electronic Arts and Maxis were setting the record straight. No, Project Renee will not be The Sims 5, a sequel that will never truly arrive. The dynamic duo will continue to update The Sims 4, when Project Renee will be a standalone, multiplayer, free-to-play entity. A game awaited by many, new images of which have leaked, and it is unlikely to please fans.

Regularly, The Simsare victims of leaks. Untimely leaks that harm the publisher's good communication, but which at least allow players to get an idea of ​​future new features.

According to the author, this playtest focused on a small part of the game, some features were missing. Nevertheless, this preview allowed players to take another look at this Project René, planned for a more or less near future.A free-to-play that should adopt its codes, and especially its economic model. Monetized elements are visible on the right and left, suggesting microtransactions galore.

It's likely so. On Reddit, many players have commented on these leaks. And the feedback is not good. One user compares it to the Sims Mobile, but not as good, explaining that it was “the same thing, but with fewer features“.You can work in a coffee shop and buy new outfits. It seems like it will be pretty much the exact same setup, but maybe a little different” he continues.

Other comments attack the artistic direction, believing that this visual that would be specific to a mobile game has no place here. But with Project Renee, EA is looking to release a cross-platform title, like Genshin Impact or Honkai Star Rail from miHoYo. A game playable from your PC, your portable or living room game console, or your smartphone, with your saves stored in the clouds. While Project René is still presented as a way to create “ways for fans to meet, connect and share while playing together in a whole new world“, this leak is far from convincing the most skeptical.
