Electronic Arts made a stunning announcement today as the base game of The Sims 4 will be free for all this October. This will essentially mark a new era for the game as anyone who wishes to play it can jump into it immediately and start creating their own characters and homes like you normally would, with further updates to the game coming in content packs, which is what they've technically been doing for a while now. This will go into effect on October 18th, and will coincide with the Behind The Sims Summit happening that same day. Those who have purchased the base game by October 17 will receive the Desert Luxe Kit as a gift, which provides a modern oasis with luxurious indoor and outdoor furniture, for you to enjoy the look and feel of the Southwestern desert.
