With seven top-selling expansion packs released over the past four years to support the original The Sims product, it won't surprise anyone that the game's sequel, The Sims 2, is about to get its own library of expansion packs. The first "in a line" of add-ons for the recently released sequel was announced over the weekend.
The Sims 2 University is due from EA's Maxis Studios sometime in March 2005. As the name suggests, University lets gamers enroll their sims in college, where they can attend classes, settle into a dorm room, party like it's 1999 (if they choose), and generally live out the life of an everyday virtual college student.
Sinjin Bain, an executive producer at Maxis, readied the industry for additional add-ons: "This title is also the first in a line of expansion packs that will address our players' desires, further develop The Sims 2 franchise, and continually expand the world of The Sims."
The franchise has already driven sales of more than 41 million units.
