While The Sims 4 is still alive and kicking as EA's latest Sims game release, and one of PS Plus's free February games, talks are happening regarding future content relating to The Sims franchise. Specifically, EA CEO Andrew Wilson spoke of the possibility that The Sims series may get multiplayer in the future.

According to EA's conference call regarding the third quarter of the fiscal year 2020, Wilson spoke about the possibility of Sims multiplayer. Wilson was asked whether an online iteration the franchise would get released again at some point, which triggered the reply.

Wilson responded that "What The Sims has done is really focus on fulfilling the motivations and inspiration, escape, creation, self-improvement and not necessarily focus as much as on social interaction and competition." He added to this, saying that The Sims could get a multiplayer version or feature in the future. Specifically, he said so, given the communal aspects "that were actually present in The Sims Online many many years ago that they will start to become a part of The Sims experience in the years to come."

Basically, Wilson says that EA recognizes the importance of self-expression and single-player creativity in The Sims. However, there is already a community element to The Sims. Players share experiences but are also competitive about it at times. Players are willing to compare styles of creating families and households while debating their methods of doing so.

So far, nothing regarding the next Sims iteration has been officially announced by EA yet. Much has been teased about it, though, including that it is in the works. Further, the conference call with Wilson grants some idea of what is being factored into the development of the next Sims game.
