"LOS ANGELES – The creators of "The Sims" are opening up gender customization options for the first time in the long-running history of the popular life simulation video game.

"The Sims" publisher Electronic Arts and developer Maxis said a free update available Thursday for "The Sims 4" will remove gender boundaries and allow players to create virtual townsfolk — or Sims, as they're known — with any type of physique, walk style or voice they choose."
