Sims Board Games Arrive: Goliath Games Partnership Announced

The Sims franchise is venturing into the world of tabletop gaming for the first time ever with an upcoming board game launching in Fall 2025. This exciting new project is a collaboration with Goliath Games, a leading manufacturer of toys and games.

Goliath Games promises a fresh and engaging way for fans to experience The Sims in a physical format. Further details about the game's features and gameplay will be unveiled at the New York Toy Fair, running from March 1st to 4th.

As part of its 25th-anniversary celebration, The Sims is expanding beyond the digital realm. The franchise, launched in 2000, has become a hugely successful video game series with numerous titles, expansions, and ongoing updates. Despite the last main installment, The Sims 4, releasing in 2014, the game remains incredibly popular thanks to consistent updates and additions.

Jochanan Golad, CEO of Goliath Games, expressed his excitement about the partnership, emphasizing his company’s expertise in crafting immersive physical games. He assured fans the board game will offer a unique Sims experience while remaining faithful to the series' core gameplay.

Lyndsay Pearson, Vice President of Creative Franchise for The Sims, highlighted the significance of this milestone in the franchise’s 25th year. She praised Goliath Games' ability to create a fun and engaging board game experience. The Sims Board Game will be available worldwide at major retailers, with more details released closer to its release date.

Goliath Games will offer a deeper look into the game’s design and mechanics at the New York Toy Fair. While specifics are currently under wraps, both companies aim to translate key elements of The Sims' life simulation—character creation, relationships, and personal growth—into the board game experience. Fans of The Sims and board game enthusiasts alike can anticipate this innovative addition to the franchise.
