Sims 2 Ikea Home Stuff Coming in June

Even though The Sims 3 are under development, Maxis still has time to create additional stuff for the money-maker called The Sims 2. And that's OK, as long as people are buying it, I guess. So, this time, Electronic Arts has launched a new content pack for its game, called The Sims 2 IKEA Home Stuff. Probably the name is pretty self-explanatory, but let us talk about the content pack a little: it will bring a lot of items from IKEA especially designed for your bedroom, living room or office. The pack is expected to ship to retailers everywhere on the 23rd of June in North America and the 27th of June in Europe.

"The Sims is thrilled to collaborate with IKEA for more customization of your Sims’ homes, adding fun and inspirational design options for the bedroom, living room and home office," said Rod Humble, Head of The Sims Studio. "This new content will certainly contribute to the players’ ability to make their Sims’ dream home. The Sims 2 IKEA Home Stuff will expand creative opportunities and that is what The Sims is all about. Home is central to the experience of your Sims and with IKEA additions, it’s sure to be the most inviting place in the neighborhood."

This means that everything from sofas, beds, tables, TV units and shelving to IKEA wall art, mirrors, lighting options and vases will be available for you to arrange exactly as you see fit in your own little Sims universe – both for the well-being of your characters and the well-being of Electronic Arts. And having in mind that the company says that fans from all over the world have asked for the introduction of IKEA products, we will believe them and be forever grateful.

The Sims 2 IKEA Home Stuff will be available for $19.99 in North America and €14.99 in Europe.
