"Сайт wikia.com опубликовал объемную информацию, из перевода которой мы узнали, что The Sims 3 выходит на Западе уже в конце 2008 года," - сообщает Уоррен Дженсон, - "а самое главное, что oпубликованнoе видео с YouTube (?!) действительно официальное". Конкретно не назывались никакие сайты, кроме YouTube, на которых было опубликовано это видео, но то, что это именно оно, было понятно из его описания, в котором говорится о сверкающем на солнце песке и новых текстурах, которые мы и могли наблюдать ранее.

Также подтверждено, что выход The Sims 3 на платформах PC, Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Wii состоится в других странах в 2009 году. Точные месяцы не озвучены.

Сайт wikia.com обещал в самое ближайшее время дополнить новую и свежую информацию.
После релиза игры на Западе в конце этого года, нам вполне станут доступны скриншоты, новое видео, описания и статьи. Все это обязательно опубликуем и будем держать посетителей сайта в курсе.

The Sims 3 is a confirmed next-generation simulation game. This was confirmed on November 2, 2006, by EA chief financial officer Warren Jenson.

"Yes, there's a Sims 3 in development and it's likely to be a fiscal '09 title". ~ Warren Jenson on The Sims 3

The Sims 3 (working title) was announced in November of 2006 and will be released in the end of 2008 in the USA and in 2009 in other regions.

It is Speculated of the game being in a city, but it is not known if the game will turn out that way. It should also be noted that the term 'city' is a vague one, which could infer anything from a contiguous, real-time neighbourhood that can act as a city to decide things, to an actual urban area reminiscent of The Sims Urbz.

In July 2007 AI researcher Richard Evans [1] , who is part of the TS3 team, gave a talk at the annual AIIDE (Artificial Intelligence and Interactive Digital Entertainment) conference in California, notes from which can be read here.

During a fansite preview for The Sims 2: Free Time, it was shown that many EA games would be added to the sims world. Around that same time, a video was released onto YouTube showing a sim in The Sims 2 playing what is presumed to be (possibly a beta version) The Sims 3. In that, it shows something towards a continuous, panning neighborhood, diagonal placings for objects, better lighting systems, and the ability to change shoes in the CAS. The preview only lasts about one minute, and has poor resolution, but it has made many people suspicious as to whether Maxis/EA will announce The Sims 3 with the release of the (most likely last) expansion pack (i.e. Free Time).

It is also rumored of the game have a Open World (similar to Burnout Paradise).

The game is being developed by Criterion Software.

Acording to the official website, as of 6th March 2008, there will be more news regarding the title released on March 19th, 2008.
