These new Sims 3 Supernatural screen shots are fairy cute
The Sims are joining the freak show this fall, and today EA is serving us up a few fresh snaps. With these screen shots comes a closer look at two of the new types of Sims added with the Supernatural expansion: the fairy and the zombie. Fairy Sims will start off as human like creatures with a small pair of wings, evolving into the traditional, tiny fairy over time through special interactions. They will also have special auras that boost their skills and the skills of those around them, and a slew of customization options, from the length of their wings to the pointiness of their ears, will be available in Create-A-Sim. Zombie Sims, meanwhile, will not be available in Create-A-Sim. They're created either the old fashioned way -- through the infected bite of another zombie -- or with the use of special potions. The Sims 3 Supernatural expansion debuts on PC and Mac on September 4, with a Limited Edition including Pea Shooters and other Plants vs. Zombies decor and features available with your pre-order.
