THE SIMS TO DELIVER CAN’T-MISS DIGITAL MUSIC EXPERIENCES
IN-GAME AND ON TIKTOK
The Sims has partnered with nearly 500 artists since 2004
to record their songs in the iconic language of Simlish for
millions of Sims players around the world. Sims Sessions marks the
first time Simlish songs will debut in-game and in an entirely new
festival format. During Sims Sessions, players can explore the
event with options to create their best festival fashions, camp out
and shop exclusive digital merchandise featuring Bebe Rexha, Glass
Animals and Joy Oladokun.
Players can also join The Sims, Bebe Rexha and some of TikTok’s
most talented musical personalities for a virtual #SimlishSessions
karaoke challenge on TikTok. The community will showcase their
Simlish skills, sharing side-by-side duets with Bebe Rexha and
featuring their own twists on her latest single Sabotage for a
chance to be re-posted by the pop star.
“I’ve always been a fan of how The Sims empowers players to
express their creativity with others in the game,” said Bebe Rexha.
“Sims Sessions will be a fun experience for fans from around the
world to enjoy music and hang with friends in a way that only The
Sims can offer. I’m so excited to return to the game and also can’t
wait to see the fans posting their Simlish videos of
‘Sabotage!’”
THE SIMS PARTNERS WITH MUSICAL ARTISTS TO PERFORM IN-GAME
LIKE NEVER BEFORE
Dave Bayley will perform the Billboard-charting single Heat
Waves from his electronic/pop band Glass Animals’ record catalogue.
Multi-faceted performer Joy Oladokun will sing her powerful ballad
Breathe Again before Bebe Rexha takes to the stage and her piano
with a Simlish version of Sabotage from her second studio album
Better Mistakes. Upon conclusion of the show, players can put on a
performance of their own with fellow Sims on the festival
stage.
“Sims Sessions is the next evolution of music in The Sims,” said
Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive and President of Music at EA.
“Nowhere else can players hear and experience these exclusive
performances by Bebe, Dave and Joy. With the self-expression
destination that is Sims Sessions, EA will once again re-set the
bar for gaming, music and global culture.”
