Summary
- Reddit user OyeDiego claims to have spotted two MySims games on the EA App.
- One is another bundle, possibly for Agents and SkyHeroes, while the other appears to be a new game entirely.
- It’s supposedly called Beacon Bay, taking its name from The Sims 3 DS, but we have no other details right now.
Reddit user OyeDiego claims to have spotted two MySims games on the EA app that have not been announced yet — Action Bundle and Beacon Bay.
They attached a video clip that shows the two games appearing on their search bar, and neither has an image yet nor any further details. But we can glean some information from their names alone. Action Bundle is likely another collection of re-releases for the Switch akin to the Cozy Bundle, possibly for MySims Agents and SkyHeroes.
Fans speculate that the Action Bundle will be announced during the reported Nintendo Direct in February.
Beacon Bay, however, is a bit of a mystery. It’s a location found only in the DS version of The Sims 3, and its description tells us that “Before Pleasantview, there was Beacon Bay, founded by the Landgraabs to be a quiet, peaceful town.” It could be the first new entry into the series in 15 years, but that’s only speculation.
They Appear To Have PEGI Ratings
According to OyeDiego, each game had “broken pages” on the EA app, which included the title, a PEGI 7 rating, and a placeholder release date of 2099. A rating indicates that they’re due to at least be announced, but that might not be the case here.
Looking on the PEGI website for MySims: Action Bundle or Beacon Hero, or just through the catalogue of MySims games, doesn’t yield any results. It’s likely that the 7 rating is also a placeholder, especially as every other MySims game, including the Cozy Bundle, Agents, and SkyHeroes, are rated PEGI 3.

The Sims 4 is in need of a refresh, but now it’s going to go on forever, growing stale.
While it’s worth taking this with a grain of salt, as it has not been verified yet, MySims: Cozy Bundle was the second-highest charting game in November last year for Nintendo Switch, and is still in the top 30 today. It appears to have been a success for EA, and so new games and bundles aren’t a completely far-fetched idea.
If the new bundle is in fact MySims Agents and SkyHeroes, that leaves only Racing And Party to be ported to current-gen. And with the success of the Cozy Bundle proving that there’s still a market for these spin-offs, a new entry also seems likely. Beacon Bay might just be that.
