How The Sims' Customization Created One of Gaming’s Most Inclusive Communities

The Sims lets players design characters with different skin tones, body shapes, and styles, ensuring that everyone can create an avatar that truly represents them.

Unlimited Character Creation

Unlike many games, The Sims has long supported same-sex relationships and unique family structures, allowing players to tell stories that reflect their real lives.

Diverse Relationship Choices

With an ever-growing selection of hairstyles, clothes, and accessories, The Sims makes it easy for players to express cultural diversity and personal identity.

Inclusive Fashion and Styles

From city life to island living, expansion packs introduce cultures, traditions, and unique experiences that reflect the real world's diversity and lifestyles.

Representation in Expansion Packs

Players create and share mods, expanding the game’s diversity even further by adding new cultures, disabilities, pronouns, and more to represent all walks of life.

Community-Driven Custom Content

The Sims provides a judgment-free world where players can explore their identities, tell personal stories, and live out their dream lives in a virtual setting.

A Safe Space for Creativity

Every decision in The Sims—from careers to relationships—allows players to shape unique stories, making it one of the most player-driven games ever created.
