Default Different Ikea Cover
I checked the local game online shop who imports EA Games here. I found out that it will be released 27th of June which is early because we usually get them 20 - 30 days after the release in EU. But that's not the point. The cover is different and doesn't mention Ikea at all. This is very strange.

Was this on the online game shop or did you find this online somewhere else? Because that looks more like a fake cover ...

EDIT: Also, the objects and clothes look too realistic (hehe, if only Maxis could really make it like that) to be in the game. I never saw those objects on the official website where it lists the objects.

That looks weird and very photoshopped.

Also... *head scritch* Why are there clothes there? Ikea doesn't sell clothes... and I wouldn't expect there to be any in the Ikea SP except maybe some aprons recoloured so you could have Ikea employees if you wanted to run an Ikea store...

And yeah, very photoshopped... those aren't in-game pics of anything... they're taken right from Ikea's pics of their items...

I don't understand honestly. The website is very reliable, nothing with piracy at all. They are the official distributor of Sim Games.

Can we have the link to the website? I too think it's photoshopped...

Checked the tops and outfits available in CAS, and there isn't anything new. So that's odd.

The website has changed the ikea cover. They have the normal one now. I still don't understand why they put the fake one in the first place.
