EA has issued an apology following their failure to address the predatory behavior of one of their Sims’ Game Changers. Multiple teenage boys complained that the person in question, Dylan Simz, made sexual advances towards them online. When the concerns were originally brought to the sims community managers, appropriate action was not taken. EA has since acknowledged what happened and has apologized.
