EA has announced that The Sims 3 has been delayed until June.

The second sequel in the multi-million selling series will now release worldwide on June 2nd. The game had originally been due to launch on PC in just under three weeks time on February 20th.

“The June launch combined with the break-through game the team is building gives us the perfect runway to create awareness for The Sims 3,” said Russell Arons, Vice President of Marketing for EA. “The Sims 3 will be the original IP summer blockbuster of 2009 as we build off the success of the best-selling PC franchise of all time to create awareness with both loyal Sims fans and new players.”

EA also released a new trailer for the title, which you can check out over on D+PAD TV.
