Maxis has, as promised, delivered some news about some of the content coming to The Sims 4 in the very near future. We’ve been expecting the June-August roadmap to be detailed this week, and that’s exactly what’s been revealed.
It all starts next week, when the next major expansion will be revealed. The Enchanted by Nature Expansion Pack is set to be unveiled on Thursday, June 12. But there’s more coming throughout the summer, too.
As detailed on the official website, the June 12 reveal of Enchanted by Nature will only deliver the initial trailer; EA likes to make announcements of announcements a lot with The Sims. A deeper look at gameplay will arrive two weeks later, on June 26.
Enchanted by Nature will be available in The Sims 4 on July 10, so that’s another wait of two more weeks. The game is also hosting the Nature’s Calling event to celebrate the impending launch of the new expansion.
Nature’s Calling kicks off June 24, two days before the proper reveal of the expansion. This is a limited-time event that EA says will let you “hone your Sim’s handiness skill to discover a long-hidden secret of nature.” There’s actually a dedicated page to Nature’s Calling with more information on what you can expect, and how the event works.
On July 1, The Sims 4 will receive its next update. You can expect some nature-inspired skins and customisation options in that one. Later in the summer – on August 19, to be exact – a fresh batch of customisation options will arrive alongside another base game update.
The Sims 4’s most recent expansion was Businesses & Hobbies, a pack that introduced hobby classes, small businesses, and a new pottery skill. With each new expansion, cross-pack interactivity once again becomes a major talking point amongst the game’s community, so it’ll be interesting to see whether Nature’s Calling moves things forward in that area.
If you’re still playing Businesses & Hobbies, we’ve got a number of cheats to help you out, should you need them.
