Following the record-setting launch of The Sims 2, the development team at the celebrated Maxis studio today launched The Urbz : Sims in the City , the newest entry into the award-winning franchise for the PlayStation 2, the Xbox, the Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance, with a DS version also being prepared, a screenshot of which you can view by following the Screens tab above.
In the three console versions of the game, take your sims from the suburbs and place them in the heart of the big city. The Urbz: Sims in the City has a completely new urban look, attitude and feel that The Sims franchise has never before explored. It's all about reputation: which gets you access to the coolest people and hottest places; then use your new-found influence to style the city in your own image. Explore nine unique districts and renovate multiple apartments as you work to become the biggest player in the city.
Take a job working for The Black Eyed Peas in the Cozmo Street district while listening to nine exclusive tracks recorded specifically in Simlish by the record-breaking band – a first in videogame history.
In the Game Boy Advance version, players explore the city of Minniopolis, searching for a way to save the town from the vindictive Daddy Big Bucks. Players complete up to eight mini-games and mingle with over 30 characters, all the while maintaining their reputation.
The game will also ship on the Nintendo DS as a launch title for the new handheld.
