The next part of the well-known life simulation series - The Sims 4 game - won't be available for the huge amount of fans in Russia. While all previous titles were rated as the ones for teens, the upcoming game is supposed to be sold only to those people who are older than 18 years.

This information has come from the official Russian Twitter account of The Sims 4 game. Last week, it was reported that the upcoming project will get an R18+ rating in Russia and the countries of the CIS. The above mentioned restriction is assigned to the law number 436-FZ, which forbids any kind of information harmful to the health and development of children.

Most likely, The Sims 4 game is getting a new rating due to the same-sex relationships that are provided by the developers. This feature was available in the previous instalments of the series too, but only in 2013 Russia prohibited the propaganda of non-traditional sexual relationships.

However, a digital piracy is popular in Russia, and it seems that The Sims 4 game will still find its fans, no matter of their age. And what do you think about the project's rating? Are you waiting for The Sims 4 game's release? Let us know in the comments below.
