This means that the sims are actually able to meet their own descendants in the new sub-neighborhood of Oasis Landing, which can end up being an example of either a dystopian or utopian future. Obviously, the main feature of this expansion is the ability to visit the future with your sims and see what the world looks like further down the line. The final Sims 3 expansion is titled Into the Future, and as you may have guessed, it features a bunch of high-tech time travel shenanigans. Needless to say, University Life is bound to be a great addition to the game, especially for players who like playing with single sims or small groups of sims. And speaking of social networking, University Life also replaces the old Sims 3 phones with smartphones, which, of course, come with some new features. Naturally, there are also new skills that sims can acquire: Street Art, Science and Social Networking.
They can also join one social group, Nerds, Jocks or Rebels, potentially unlocking some extra perks that can come in handy both at the university and in their future careers. While staying at university, sims can live in dormitories, rented houses/apartments, or they can join a sorority/fraternity. There are six majors to pick from: Business, Communications, Science and Medicine, Fine Arts, Physical Education and Technology. It allows you to enroll in the Sims University, a brand new sub-neighborhood where your sims will live while working on their degree. Up next, we have a college-themed expansion. What’s more, sims can also become vampires and access many of the perks of undeath that are usually associated with mainstream vampires.Īll in all, if you like playing around with bachelor sims, Late Night should definitely be a high-priority expansion for you! The expansion also allows sims to become celebrities, gaining certain perks by increasing their celebrity status, that is, becoming more famous. The first three are merely new instruments that musically inclined sims can learn to play, while mixology allows sims to work as bartenders and mix a variety of exotic drinks. On top of that, four new skills are introduced: piano, bass, drums and mixology. Film is a new career in this expansion, while music and sports careers are updated and expanded. Nonetheless, it is quite an expansive neighborhood, and it manages to achieve a sense of scale that is lacking in most Sims 3 towns.Ĭonsidering the focus is placed on an urban environment, the expansion is all about the careers and activities you’d usually associate with it: film, music, nightlife and so on. Taking the focus away from suburban neighborhoods, Late Night introduces a sprawling metropolis called Bridgeport - well, as “sprawling” as the game’s engine can support, which is to say not very.
