Though that change was made after nine years, it's not a big leap to imagine The Sims 5 starting out free to download and relying on EA's consistent schedule of DLC for revenue. The Sims 4 base game has been free since last year.

Neither of those details are too surprising. 46 After a long two years of development, TwistedMexi has officially announced his Sims 4 Create-a-World Mod This mod will allow you to edit and change different parts of your world to make for better gameplay and unique environments.
