[QUOTE="Admin, post: 64803, member: 1"] Today, Maxis dropped a ton of The Sims-related information spanning the games, the upcoming film, content creators, and more. While some fans may have been scouring the updates for news on next-gen Sims release Project Rene, there wasn't much to go on...except that there will be another invite-only playtest of the game coming this fall. Per Maxis, Project Rene will hold a "small, invite-only playtest" in the fall, "giving an early look at a multiplayer experience that explores joining friends and other players at a shared location." Interested individuals can [URL='https://go.ea.com/TSLblogsignup']sign up to participate in the playtest here[/URL].
