The Sims franchise is venturing into the world of tabletop gaming with its first-ever board game, launching in Fall 2025. This exciting new project is a collaboration with Goliath Games, a leading manufacturer of toys and games.

Goliath Games promises a fresh and engaging way for Sims fans to experience the franchise in a physical format. More details about the game will be unveiled at the New York Toy Fair, running from March 1st to 4th.

As part of its 25th-anniversary celebration, The Sims is expanding beyond digital realms. Since its debut in 2000, The Sims has become a hugely successful video game franchise, boasting numerous titles, expansions, and updates. Despite the last main installment, The Sims 4, being released in 2014, the franchise continues to thrive with ongoing updates and additions.

Jochanan Golad, CEO of Goliath Games, expressed his excitement about this partnership, emphasizing Goliath's expertise in creating immersive physical games. He assured fans the board game will offer a unique Sims experience while remaining faithful to the core gameplay.

Lyndsay Pearson, Vice President of Creative Franchise for The Sims, highlighted the importance of this milestone in the franchise's 25th year. She commended Goliath Games' ability to create a fun and engaging board game experience. The Sims Board Game will have a global release at major retailers, with further details released closer to launch.

At the New York Toy Fair, Goliath Games will share more about the game's design and mechanics. While specifics are still under wraps, both companies aim to capture key elements of The Sims' life simulation—character creation, relationships, and personal growth—in the board game format. This innovative addition to the franchise will excite both Sims fans and board game enthusiasts.
