While work on The Sims 5 has long since begun, The Sims 4 will not be forgotten by Maxis. A fresh expansion pack has been announced today that focuses on families.
The latest add-on for The Sims 4 is called Growing Together and will be released by Electronic Arts and Maxis on March 16th for PC and consoles. In it, you can explore a new city and experience family relationships in a new way through different dynamics and interactions. According to the creators, you can help shape how your Sim matures from the new infant stage of life to adulthood as well as reaching new family milestones.
The new setting is the quaint seaside town of San Sequioa and is also home to the new social compatibility feature. This is designed to open up new avenues for you to connect and build more meaningful relationships. You may witness your infant suddenly adopt a new behavior or reach a developmental milestone. There are new options for things to do or explore and fresh, special family moments.
In a nutshell, the main innovations of the package are indicated as follows:
- A New City: Players will get to know San Sequoia, the seaside city of The Sims 4.
- Deep gameplay through the new infant life stage
- More family interactions and dynamics
- New milestones that affect a Sim’s development
Away from the paid add-on content, all base game players will receive a free update on March 14th that will make the infants available to all. This new phase of life in the game will be examined in more detail in the run-up to the release of the DLC pack in a detailed presentation. This is open for March 3rd from 8:00 p.m Twitch and YouTube planned. By the way, you get it now in a detailed blog entry further details offered.
The expansion pack had already been leaked online shortly before the official announcement and picks up on themes from the zest for life expansion that was already available for The Sims 3 and was extremely popular there.
