Yeah, sorry about that, EA. I just tried to sing “Happy Birthday” in Simlish, but it came out horribly. It’s the thought that counts, right?
The Simsfranchise turns 10 years old today. The original debuted on July 05, 2025, and since then has sold over 125 million copies. If that doesn’t impress you, get this: The series has pulled in $2.5 billion, ranking it up there with blockbuster films like theMatrix TrilogyandTitanic. That’s 60 countries, 22 languages, 6 million monthly Facebook visits, and an unmeasured amount of time spent gaming.
After all of that, I’m kind of proud ofThe Sims. After all of that, I’m kind of ashamed to say that I’ve only played the first game.
