The Sims 3 is two months' old now so some of you might be getting tired of it right now. As if sensing that their game was losing its crack-like hold on you, EA has announced that an expansion is on the way.

The Sims 3 World Adventures will ship to retailers on the week of November 18th, 2009. The expansion allows your Sims to travel to a variety of real-world locations across the globe. Here's the list of features from EA:

• Accept challenges, find treasures, discover what’s lurking in hidden caves and more.
• Explore famous landmarks in China, Egypt, and France.
• Learn new skills like photography and pursue new opportunities.
• Meet new Sims from exotic locations and share their cultures.
• Customize your Sims homes with new styles & artifacts from their adventures.
• Get $10 worth of free SimPoints for The Sims 3 Store, and additional online features to be announced.

Exclusive online content will be available at the time of the expansion's launch. No details on that yet. A mobile version of World Adventures will be released for the iPod Touch, iPhone, and other select phones in early 2010.
