WithThe Simsbeing one of the most well-recognized and successful franchises in gaming, it’s no surprise that EA would want to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Being able to remain popular and relevant for a quarter of a century is something that most other games can only wish to do, and such a milestone means fans are also in store for some amazing things as a show of appreciation. The biggest way the franchise has thanked its supporters is by releasingThe SimsandThe Sims 2legacy collections, which are basically optimized versions of both titles for modern operating systems and hardware. And while those are great releases to help commemorate the 25th anniversary, EA could also make one more thing happen that could cap off the celebration in the best way possible.
As it’s clear thatThe Simsis something fans continue to hold in high regard and enjoy, it must do something to ensure that it never loses them. The 25th-anniversary celebration is one of the good ways of doing that, providing players with new updates, DLC, and more. While it seems it’s already over, it doesn’t have to be. As a final way to honor the franchise’s huge milestone, EA can choose to release or at least revealProject Rene. It is a game fans are highly anticipating, and using it via any means to endThe Sims' 25th anniversary could end up being a worthwhile move.

Why Project Rene Would Be a Great Way to End the Sims’ 25th Anniversary
Since there are onlyhints of plans forProject Reneand no confirmation of its official release, it would be an interesting move to use it as a way to finishThe Sims' 25th anniversary. If EA decides to push through with doing so, then it could lead to certain benefits, such as:
Project Reneis the next step toward the evolution of The Sims franchise, and both it and its predecessors have something to gain by using one another. Making it a part of the 25th-anniversary celebration will certainly lead to interesting results, but whether it happens is ultimately up to EA.
How the Sims’ 25th Anniversary Can Be Made More Special With Project Rene and Another Potential Project
While there’s nothing else seemingly planned forThe Sims' 25th anniversary, there are still many months left until the year ends. That means there’s still time to work onProject Reneand use it as a way to end and commemorate one of the franchise’s biggest milestones, but perhaps it shouldn’t be the only effort that should be made. Considering that the recent collection gave players the best of what the originalSimsandSims 2had to offer, it would be a wasted opportunity not to giveThe Sims 3the same compilation treatment.
It could work well withProject Reneas an anniversary celebration ender, especially since one can show the innovations that led to helping the franchise obtain a bright future and the other shows the results of what it was all leading up to. Also, withThe Sims3 still holding up and being enjoyed despite its age, especially with its more open-world gameplay with little to no restrictions, it has earned the right to receive its own legacy collection and a second chance at the spotlight.
The Simsfranchise has certainly shown its worth by celebrating its 25 years of life with its fans by giving them more reasons to enjoy its best works, and it’s possibly not done doing so.Expectations ofProject Renebeing the grand way to honor the milestone are there, but even if it doesn’t happen, people have already given games and content that can help satisfy them for the rest of the year.
