PC game digital distribution company Metaboli is to release EA's The Sims 3 three hours ahead of the official release.
The offer means fans of the hugely popular Will Wright series who purchase the title through the Gameplanet download-to-own service can be among the first to receive the game. Metaboli will make The Sims 3 available at 9pm on June 4th, and has open a dedicated website to handle demand.
The Metaboli release will also give customers a number of special extras, including £12 worth of SimPoints for use in the Sims 3 Store, an exclusive poster and a unique cover.
“The Sims 3 has been the subject of numerous pre-orders on our platforms and this is undoubtedly one of the most attractive packages we’ve ever offered” said Jérôme Gayet, vice president of marketing and product of Metaboli.
