Redwood City, CA (September 13, 2005) - Electronic Arts announced
today that The Sims 2 Nightlife will ship starting today in North America.
From EA:
The Sims 2, sequel to the best-selling PC franchise, The Sims, swept the
world by storm in September 2004 by quickly becoming the fastest selling PC game
of all time with sales over 5M units worldwide to date. Developed by the award
winning EA-Maxis studio, The Sims 2 Nightlife adds over 125 new objects and all
new gameplay elements such as sending your Sims on romantic dates or out on the
town with their friends.
The Sims 2 Nightlife introduces the new Pleasure aspiration which allows Sims to
lead a life filled with fun and exciting moments. Players will be able to turn
their nightlife fantasies into reality while interacting with the new downtown
locals and may even run into exotic new characters such as vampires and fortune
tellers. To create their ultimate after-dark environment, players will find
loads of new objects including a Karaoke machine, poker table, electro-dancesphere
and DJ booth. A first for the franchise, cars are available for Sims to head out
on the town or to their jobs in style. Also new is the dating gameplay and
attraction system which helps Sims scope out the scene for potential love
interests. Whether a Sim is destined to find the love of his life or just out
for a night of fun, it’s sure to be a good time.
“We can’t wait to see the stories the players start to tell about their
experiences in The Sims 2 Nightlife,” said Tim LeTourneau, Sr. Producer. “This
pack gives players everything they need to expand their Sims’ social life and
experience an ultimate night out on the town.”
The Sims 2 Nightlife will ship under the EA brand and is rated “T” for Teen by
the ESRB. The game will ship on September 13 in North America and starting
September 19 in Europe. The Sims 2 is required to play The Sims 2 Nightlife. For
the first time, players will also be able to experience The Sims 2 on
