Electronic Arts announced that the hugely popular Sims 2 will add licensed furniture from IKEA to the design palette this June. The pack will add “must-have” items to “key-living spaces,” focusing on the living room, bedroom and home office.
Expect some interestingly-named Swedish imports, including the VÄNNA mirror, LEKSVIK coffee table and a cozy EKTORP sofa – in what Ron Humble, head of the Sims studio, calls
adding fun and inspirational design options for the bedroom, living room and home office… 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!
Bust out some Swedish language guides (it might be interesting to see if these furniture names are real words), and fire up the Sims 2. The Sims 2 IKEA Home Stuff will be available for $19.99 USD in North America.
