We welcome new updates as Project Rene expands. The Sims has not had a true multiplayer mode since The Sims Online launched in 2002. While details of this multiplayer mode, and whether it will extend to regular Sims gameplay beyond room customisation, are not confirmed, these details are extremely exciting. ‘ Project Rene is a place for you to explore life with The Sims and also share a wide variety of experiences with trusted friends, if you want, when you want.’ ‘Players can design an apartment together, opening up new ways to play, tell stories, and build dream creations,’ EA and Maxis confirmed.

In a blog post, it was also confirmed that there will be a ‘social play’ aspect to the experience: There will also be free rotation and movement of objects, allowing for unique placements, and more creative setups. Rene will allow players to control patterns, colours, materials, parts, shapes, and sizes of furniture, unlike in past Sims games. According to developers, the playtests focussed largely on furniture customisation.
