REDWOOD CITY, CA. — February 21, 2007 — Today Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) unveiled SimCity™ Societies Destinations*, the first city pack in the popular SimCity Societies line-up of games.

SimCity Societies Destinations enhances the SimCity Societies experience by providing all the tools you need to create an entire city or town based on attractions and amenities that visitors enjoy.
