The Sims Label has announced the first details for the all-new SimAnimals. The all-new franchise establishes a whole new category of wild animal games. Made exclusively for the Nintendo Wii and the Nintendo DS, SimAnimals will be available worldwide in January 2009.

“SimAnimals offers an immersive and tactile experience using the Wii remote and the Nintendo DS stylus that allows you to easily and intuitively become part of the wood’s expressive, quirky and sometimes surprising narrative. Classic story-telling about wild animals comes to life in SimAnimals.”

In SimAnimals you are challenged to engage, touch, move and try to control more than 60 animals as you journey deeper and deeper into the forest. You control an on-screen animated hand that allows you to reach out and touch, pick up and move everything in the game from foxes and bears to trees and flowers. Have fun developing relationships with wild animals and their families, and experience the humor and drama of surviving in the wilderness.
