The Sims has consistently remained one of the top games in the world for the last 20 years, attracting millions of players to build their dream home and family.
Now that The Sims 4 has been out for a few years, attention is now focused on The Sims 5 and when that may be releasing.
According to a "leaker" on 4Chan, the game could be revealed sooner rather than later.
The Sims 5 Could Be Revealed During E3 Weekend
E3 2021 will take place in June 2021, between Saturday, June 12th and Tuesday, June 15th.
During the event, we will see many of the worlds top studios and publishers reveal what games to expect over the coming year and beyond.
It has been said that both EA and Sony won't be participating in E3, but we can still expect to see both companies produce their own events where they will showcase their upcoming titles.
Rumours suggest this could take place on June 14th and according to a 4Chan leaker, this could be when The Sims 5 is released.
Posted on Reddit, a user broke down what the 4Chan leaker claims will be revealed during the event.

Assuming the leaker is correct, The Sims 5 will be revealed with a teaser trailer and developer interview, with the game releasing in Spring 2022, so likely around one year from now.
Of course, with any leaks, we have to take them with a grain of salt.
But with it being so long since the release of The Sims 5, if EA do hold an event during E3 then it is extremely likely that we could see the reveal of The Sims 5.
