With The Sims celebrating an epic 25 years – that’s just about older than the PlayStation 2 and the very first Harry Potter film – you might have heard about the equally epic 25-hour livestream happening on the official YouTube channel right now. Part of the festivities include special announcements, of course, with the MySims: Cozy Bundle now available for pre-order.
For the uninitiated, MySims: Cozy Bundle is a virtual bundle of joy that will let you experience the magic of MySims and MySims Kingdom as retro re-releases. So, if you’ve always had a thing for restoring run-down towns to their former glory and helping fantasy kingdoms thrive, this might just be your cup of tea.
What’s in the MySims: Cozy Bundle?
MySims, in particular, will have you wielding your Essences to help rebuild Mayor Rosalyn’s charming little town. As you attract more residents to make their home here, you can befriend them and set off on fun adventures while prettifying your humble abode.
As for MySims Kingdom, King Roland will need all the help you can give. You, as the Wandolier, will have to scour the islands to restore the happiness that was lost, all while befriending colourful characters along the way.
It’s basically all about building houses and building memories with your soon-to-be BFFs. And, as you might expect from the franchise, you’ll get to unlock a wide variety of cosmetics to personalise your Sims to your liking.
Now, MySims: Cozy Bundle already launched on the Nintendo Switch last year. But for fans of the IP on PC, now’s your chance to join in on all the fun. You can currently pre-order on the official website to play via Steam and the Epic Games Store ahead of the official launch in March.
That said, why not have a look at the livestream to hype yourself up while you wait? There’s plenty of time to catch up – did I mention it’s running for 25 hours?
