Earlier today, EA held a small event in New York City which showcased some of their upcoming games. Splitting their games into two sections (Naughty = Left 4 Dead 2 & adult games, Nice = Spore Hero and family games) The Sims 3 expansions made an appearance. Touch Arcade managed to report back from the event, sharing the new details!
An update currently aimed at mid-November for Sims 3 is going to add a handful of downloadable content (DLC) packs to customize your Sim and their house. These DLC packs are segregated in to “live it” and “wear it” packs for furniture and clothing. Each bundle of content will include a few different hairstyles and outfits or pieces of furniture. The first three themes that are being rolled out are the “Castle,” “University,” and “Vampires and Werewolves”.
The castle “wear it” pack will allow you to equip your sim in a suit of armor, and the vampires and werewolves live it pack will add things like coffins to your house. They weren’t willing to discuss pricing, but acknowledged that they needed to provide a good value as you can buy an entire iPhone game for 99¢, the current lowest price point allowable by Apple for in-game purchases.
Here’s hoping it’ll be priced right!
