Over the weekend, One Direction heartthrob Louis Tomlinson shared a screenshot of himself as a Sim from the upcoming new virtual reality game, 'The Sims 4'.

He encouraged fans to make Sim versions of themselves along with the rest of his bandmates, and tweeted a message to his followers along with a picture of a computer generated likeness of himself (shown left): "Look @TheSims made me!! Go and make one!!"

Last week, meanwhile, game play from the new 'Just Dance 2015' interactive offering was released and it shows a section of choreography that has been set to One Direction's smash hit single, 'Best Song Ever'. 

'The Sims 4' is due to be officially released on September 2 and retails for $69.99 in the USA. 

The boys are currently on the north American leg of their Where We Are tour and are set to perform in Nashville at the LP Field tomorrow night (August 19). They will also visit Houston, St. Louis and Chicago on the jaunt.
