The Sims 4’s upcoming Expansion Pack seems to be nearly finished!
EA Careers website has updated their website with some new job listings, and included in those listings are two new job positions looking for Voice Editors to help ship the upcoming expansion pack for The Sims 4!
The listing is looking for a Voice Editor who will be working in a 2 months term to help finalize voices and audio for the next Expansion Pack.
The Maxis Studio of Electronic Arts is seeking a Voice Editor to join the Audio team and help ship an upcoming expansion pack for The Sims 4.
The ideal candidate should have experience delivering final quality audio either from a brief or starting with placeholder sounds in software. Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to work within technical limitations to deliver quality audio are essential. It’s also important that the candidate understands the role of audio in video games; and can create final content to best effect the player experience.
This isn’t the only scenario where a Voice Editor job listing predicted that a new Expansion Pack is close to being announced. Back in July 2019 we’ve posted about the Voice Editor Job Listing and predicted that an Expansion Pack would be coming our way by the end of 2019. Just a few months after in October 2019 – Discover University was announced!
If we could predict the time when The Sims 4’s 9th Expansion Pack could be announced – it would either be sometime during summer or even late spring – at EA Play 2020.
What do you think the next Expansion Pack is all about? Let us know in the comments!
Spoke with someone in EA – it’s going to be a Reality TV Expansion Pack. Think Sims: Superstar.
We already have sims 4 get famous so doubt it
Guess, I can see that working out. Even though pretty sure Get Famous has already down minor elements from Sims: Superstar, didn’t it?
I would LOVE a farming pack!!! That is my dream pack too. I hope they listen to us and put it out!
I not interested in Farming or anything supernatural or spooky. I want a beautiful world with lots it lots & wonderful new building stuff. More personality traits to make our Sims more interesting, more jobs you can go to with your sim, more everyday places you can visit with your sims, like shops, cinema etc.
YES
No dumb farming! Like no other sims did a whole farm expansion they had point thing if u wanted farm stuff. Make a real supernatural pack! Fairies werewolves unicorns real witches nit dumb spell casters! Maybe even a reaper career! Yasss
So play the f***ing witcher! This is a life simulator, it simulates life. Do you see unicorns running around? If you do, see a doctor
Not trying to be in your business or anything but, why do you have to be so rude. I pretty sure he or she knows it’s a simulator Game. It’s a kid friendly Game don’t be rude about it.. He or She was just curious.
I think farm pack or génération pack i hope it coming
I didnt even know we had anew expansion pack coming out i only knew of the knitting stuff pack omg someone shine some light on this for me i need more info
Honestly not a fan of the farming idea, or the spooky/supernatural, BUT I have been fortunate enough with University, Island Living, and Seasons. I don’t really know what I want it to be. I kind of hope it is something completely different and unexpected.
exactly!! hoping they surprise us!! maybe including with spiral staircases? AHH that would be great
No more supernatural packs!!!!! I would love to see something similar to sims 3 generations, where we have more detailed life events for toddlers, kids, teens, and elders. Things like going to prom, having slumber parties, funerals, bachelor/bachelorette parties, family reunions, etc. that would all make storytelling so much more in-depth.
You mean Parenthood? It’s not bad and the traits you can earn along with the parenting skill add a lot of complexity and detail.
I hope for spooky ! But I do like farming as well.. So either would be perf for me.
We want school pack where we follow sims to school
Teachers/principals & much more
You should get the sam sims things and houses in a new world like in The Regular Sims Complete Collection. Its sad i cant find any sims complete collections or any anwhere. Any Idea where i could find some or digitally buy?
I would love the farming pack, but also something related to the supernatural like werewolf and hybrids!!!
I know it’s not gonna happen but maybe an actual generations expansion pack would be nice….
I’d love something more in depth like generations!!!! They touched on some of it with parenthood so I doubt it’s one like that but it would be cool.
I second this!
Hopefully a Vacation Pack.
Food Pack, Sports Pack, Decoration Pack, Mall Pack, A new Vacation Pack, Waterpark Pack, More Worlds Pack. I mean literally there’s so much more to come out with.
Farming! I want farming and not something spoopy, so to speak.
I wish the would do pack with stuff from the 60s all the way to the 90s life they did with a previous sims game when they did the 70s 80s and 90s pack
I mean they basically already did the 60s with the get famous decor
and that’s it, gotta do more than just the 60s. Hell they gotta do a lot more than thinking about moving onto Sims 5. There’s so many more packs that still haven’t been made yet.
eh retro pack would be epic, especially with wall phones, or anything like that. Plus I just need a freaking Escalator that’s all I cares about really so I can add that to my Mall that I’ve corrected under the name 2 Rainbows Mall
I agree, we definitely need more vacation spots would be so fun to go on more vacations with my sims
I really hope it’s a vacation pack. I hope they create a vacation lot type and give us some new lot traits too! It would be nice to have a hotel type and a vacation home type.
that would be so fun!!!
Honestly I would love to see the ability to make real Apartments, hotels, B&B’s that can actually be used as such. And maybe a bigger hood with destination hoods aside. I mean now that sims 5 has been announced, this might just be the last EP with maybe an SP or GP trailing behind it.
Yeah, those would really be game fixes and they clearly hate those.
This one will probably include cars (DU had 2-wheelers aka bicycles) but for the love of God I hope it’s not a farming pack.
So much YES!!!
Yeah I would like it if resorts became a thing.
Hopefully it’s a Generations or Farming EP.
I think it will be related to running resort/mountain/skiing pack
I agree because remember that one serve they had about motels and winter activities. I hope it’s that kind of theme too.
That survey was about improving *PAST* expansion/game packs. So, those features were considered for Seasons and Island Living expansions.
Yeah but they could use that information to make another expansion pack.
Ok but anyone talking about generations? You have got to admit, Parenthood was a watered down generations. I want prom and bunk beds and old peoples homes and slow dancing and go to school and possibly getting bullied but then you can get your older sibling to fight them! It’d be so much fun and so cute!
They have mods that do that.
Not everyone plays on PC.
I disagree, I don’t think Parenthood is watered down at all!
Not sure what this new EP will be. I wouldn’t mind a farming pack but they need to make the world as big as windenburg and include horses. A pack like that would also be good for those who play with historical sims, historical challenges or legacies. I really hope they do an amusement park stuff pack including roller coasters obviously. I also hope they bring werewolves back. They could probably attach fairies with them as a game pack. But I do hope they do a better job like with vampires and not make things easy like with spellcasters.
I agree to this! Anybody think cows. Pigs and chickens would be cool too?!?!?!
Yeah, all the farm animals! Imagine your little piglets! And cows and chickens and sheep! What if it will let us shear sheep?! That’d be super fun! Then it could mix with knitting! Also, do you think they’d add horses with a farming pack? Maybe if the farm animals only had a few changeable options and then they made horses really in depth. I’d prefer that.
That is a great idea. We could have Alpacas and Llamas and sheep to shear for the knitting.
Yeah, sounds cool! Build your own slaughterhouse too 😉
I am sooo excited to see the pack when it comes out! I can’t wait for it! I believe it will be just as good as every pack you have made!
I would like a Sims 4 Expansion Pack as equivalent to the World Adventures in Sims 3 as they can get, if even possible. The Jungle game pack they came out with pales in comparison and was just did not have enough challenging goals or adventures, digs, tomb exploration and dangers, and no Mummies! If cheats weren’t used, Sims 3 WA had so many different game options and diverse challenges one could try to achieve or obtain, that weren’t always easy. I miss that type of gameplay when the next move is not always obvious or easy to figure out.
Hope that if it is a farm pack that there will be horses and I definitely hope that there will be an update or pack with improved baby’s coming and mayby also more stuff for toddlers.
Dont care anymore they have killed the game
They haven’t Killed the game you ignorant opinionated man!
Farming is good as long as there are in-depth horses like in Sims 3 Pets. The sims horse community was always huge so I think it would be beneficial to them
Actually, I was expecting an EP sooner. But I guess there will be a GP coming soon
A Go to School (with the kids) Pack??!
Omg I would love that!
maybe a vacation pack (like we had in the Sims 2) or something like free time or a generation pack. remember the community vote where they asked if we would like if our Sims can own a second lot, do ice skating or mountain climbing and if we like to have more relationships / group activities.
DIY Pack!!!
Definitely agree with the people going for farming stuff , thers plenty spooky packs out there already ,if it’s not enough download extreme violence mod or angel of death and there might be even more idk , but there’s no mod for farming
I could have swore they said, something completely new that has never been done before. And that it’s basically done already.
i think they said that the next game pack is going to be something completely new. if i remember correctly, that infers the new expansion pack will be similar to a previous one. vacations maybe?
I would love to see an expansion that adds romantic attraction, rather than having to rely on mods for it. Even just adding personality likes and dislikes, similar to TS2. Or even that steps up dates a little bit or varies the rewards
Would be super nice to see farming/ranch expansion. It would be cool since we already have city living. Spooky stuff is not exciting since we already have plenty of Halloween stuff, not everyone is crazy about it. Another cool idea would be hotels or apartments with new aspirations, traits, calendar stuff etc.
We need more transport in the gams too… we have bicycles, jetskis and canoes. We need more
I wish it was cars.
I do not want farming!!!! I could never. I wouldn’t buy it at all but it could be fun to do an into the future pack like the sims 3.
Let it be something I don’t get bored with real fast. More lot space. Again slow dancing for weddings and romantic dates. And good vacation spots. I made my town of Sulani a vacation spot because Granite Falls and the other one I am so done with. I might make Newcrest one least it has empty lot space.
Can console players eventually get the First Pets Stuff pack please!! We need it !!!!!
Trust me. You’re not missing out on much- Its essentially just a bunch of recoloring of objects. I suppose the rats and hamsters were interesting though (shoulda been in pets initially tho)
Improved baby’s is what we need right now baby’s are objects is the game so we need more things to do with them like in the sims 2
Yessss I want them to be more real!
I would love to be able to do things with them especially for my 100 baby challenge I want to do more than feed and change dirty diapers
I would really LOVE TO PLAY MORE if the “ANIMATIONS” and “SMALL LITTLE DETAILS”will be back pleasee why did you removed it it will be more likely if it stayed because it is like true to life the ways how we do itpleasee
TL;DR: your expectations for sims packs are way to high and unrealistic.
Excuse me. Looking through the comments, y’all are expecting some UNREALISTIC things. Please remember that making a pack requires a lot of time, people, and most of all, Money. The sims can’t just churn out packs for you. Some things I saw here were honestly pretty silly
1. There probably won’t be a farm pack. Sorry if this is to harsh but it seems like the sims isn’t going to add it. Despite people wanting it from the beginning of the game, they have not made it, which in my opinion makes it pretty clear what they are saying.
2. No, they are not going to make more ages. No, they aren’t not going to add a pack with people from sims. No, they aren’t going to make werewolves. I’m sorry but your expectations are WAAAY to high! The sims is concentrated on keeping the game alive! They don’t have time to add pre-teens!
Sorry guys. But it’s just not gonna happen! I know that i might not be right, but you have to be more realistic! I’m sorry if you found this rude but someone needs to say it.
It is probably the long awaited farming pack. I doubt they would choose another theme after starting to answer the community’s expectations with university. It is a solid seller after all.
I thought it was crafting? I just voted on…. some knitting stuff
@Rae Lowery, the knitting pack is a Stuff Pack, not an Expansion Pack! Stuff packs are much smaller and have little added gameplay, as they are mostly just stuff. (Examples would be the Move Hangout SP or the Tiny Living SP) Expansion Packs are a lot more extensive and have lots of gameplay elements. (Examples would be the Seasons EP or the Discover University EP). 😉
I’m pretty sure they went as far as they’re going to go with gardening in the Seasons expansion. I loved horses in TS3, but it was the open world that really allowed it. And that would be a ton of animation work this late in the game…
Farming a big no for me. Would not buy. Now something more on the spoopy side I’d love
Please… no more supernatural stuff.
I second that why we need more spooky witchy stuff….like I really don’t care for that we already have like 3 add ons for that type of stuff….ea please move on
I agree. Dont care for vamps witches etc. I would like to c expansion pack like generations but make more realistic. More care due for babies. Baby showers where guests actually bring gifts. If parent not living with child pay child support. Paper route forchild and teens. Teens get pregnant woohoo. Have it to where have to buy things like diapers dish detergent graceries. When someone dies. Have a service get inheritances. Etc. Just make it more real. Wuld add to the difficulty too
@Rhonda, while I love supernatural, I also agree with you that we need more packs like Generations! 🙂
However, I doubt the paper route would be a thing nowadays since a lot of people don’t even read newspapers , or else they read them online.
Also, EA would never make teen woohoo or teen pregnancy a thing in the game as that would raise the age rating. It simply isn’t allowed if they want to keep it the same rating!
Something spoopy?
You mean like realm of magic, vampires and the spooky stuff pack?
I had talked about something like that on the forum page; Realm of Mythical Creatures. I had accidentally put mod instead of expansion pack in the details tho. XD
I wish they would add a few things to CAS, such as body hair (as they had in Sims 3, not only chest hair but leg and arm hair too), and more beard/mustache optjons than the few they have (some of us have different styles than those reflected). Different jewelry would also be nice. Maybe a new craft could be made so jewelry could be made and gifted/sold and actually used. Probably not going to happen, but would be nice.
Oh I hope it’s a farming EP with horses!!!
I’d Prefer a Hotel expansion pack! making New Job opportunities plus being able to build your own Hotel or B&B
Yes! I’m all for managing stuff like resorts, hotels, B&B’s, etc. Dine Out and Get to Work are not enough
I’ve worked in hotels for years! I think this idea could be fun!
I hope it’s a landlord/hotel/or Airbnb expansion. We can can stay at cabins etc in vacation world.. would be really awesome to own our own and rent it out.
& Realm of magic isn’t spoopy, just dope! And honestly the stuff pack is a bit disappointing, there just isn’t a lot of items.
But spooky is not a word so there’s that.
Spoopy
I am a sims 4 player and since the first day I have been faithful and dedicated to his work .. I hope we grant ourselves with all my heart to be able to live sims 4 on a farm and join wolf hoboes to the beloved vampires. thank you
Dang, Anita. Not like you ever mis-spelled a word before. Sheeeeeeeet.
I’ll take Spoopy and or Spooky over farming!
don’t we have enough of that ?????
Long as by spooky you mean werewolves, I’m all for it. (though I’d prefer a werewolf game pack, so they can go as in depth with them as they did with vampires)
Same or if they did a supernatural pack like sims 3
I would love a werewolf pack! It will make awesome story telling 😀
yes!!!
i am sort of on your side but i just accept whatever they give us i dont like saying like “GIVE ME THIS PACK” since it makes me feel like i am pressuring them so i just accept anything and find ways to have fun with them. and we already have gardening so farming i dont see the point of.
Yep im with you there, gotta be something spoopy and for anyone not having heard that word, why are you not watching Scooby Doo?
I need it! Badly! My dream Pack!
It better be farm related with farm animals lol
No don’t thinks so the vote me and the community did was to do With knitting stuff
thats the community voted stuff pack not the ninth expansion
That’s the stuff pack…not the expansion pack!
I think the same. Farming is really anticipated by the community and would be really fun! Although there was some speculation about a music pack which I wouldn’t be too mad about either.
Hi be nice to take them food shopping in supermarket or better a shopping mall with wallpaper shops and pet shops clothes shopping and toy shopping even jewelry and ice parlour even arcades and pub be great addition along with cars and horses also when adopting unneatured pets instead of all being mainly neautured when going on adopt not much option. Lots can add into game be great with extra wallparers and carpet shops or diffrent products from the catalogue and making lands bigger to buy to build on increasing the map and population of residents dont really see no stray dogs either which arnt neautured on the ps4 that is. Look forward to better and more add ons
Well you could al ready make the mall with all those things with get to work and pubs and And arcades can be mad with get together
That’ll be awesome
Can’t wait
No one wants a farming pack if you wanna farm go play farmvill on facebook period.
Plenty of people want a farming pack, I know I’d much prefer it over supernatural stuff (which they’ve already made at least 2 packs for). I’d like to see them add actual farm animals for once. Still sad they didn’t include horses in the Sims 4. Sims 3 Pets was the besttttt.
I know, farming sounds fun but I wouldn’t really want it. I would love to have horses, though!
I’d like a Farming pack. I didn’t want University, and I can’t say I’m impressed with Vampires either. I’d like a range of hobbies and interests though, perhaps we could have more sports? Adapt the worlds to include a few more lots in each of varying sizes, not so bothered about bunk beds, but diagonal stairs, or curved ones, even spirals would be awesome! Please do not try and speak for me, you are most definitely NOT on my wavelength.
I love all the people here who actually think they’re going to listen to us. If it’s farming, it’s going to be three barely furnished houses, a chicken coop that acts like the rodent cages, and maybe a cow. I refuse to get my hopes up.
I believe I have alone seen one comment about a futuristic expansions. But as per the sims recent update as of April, they said that no one has guessed the expansion yet. It’s also a “surprise” and apparently something that has NEVER been done before, so that cancels out a lot of people’s guesses already.
I’m excited, hoping it’s a space themed expansions. Already have the base for it in the sims with aliens and building a rocket ship. Either way I’ve been playing for years and am 100% ready for something new and surprising.
I really hope it’s not farming. If people want simulated farming, then they should play ‘Pure Farming’, or ‘Fantasy Farming’. It’s not like they don’t have a crap ton of simulated farming games. There is already like a 100 things to plant and grow in the Sims 4. Anyone who has the game can play farmer. Just buy a giant lot, build a little farm house, a use the rest of the land to plant and grow. So, why would we need an expansion pack for something that is already doable?
I have to disagree with that.
A Farming expansion is much more than creating a little house on a lot and planting around it.
I don’t know if the Sims 4 will ever have a farming expansion, but if they did (I’d like to) it would allow you to play with other timelines besides the present one or the future, to live on what the “land gives” and disconnect from the technological world.
It would have to have bigger lots, professions connected to the farming world, the possibility to live only of what you produce or to sell it in markets. I wouldn’t say to create animals like the dogs and cats we have now, because I don’t think that there is a need to play with the cows, chickens and pigs.
But it would be awesome for them to exist (like hamsters) and we could feed, clean, care, collect milk, shear, eggs etc.
Not everyone lives in the city or in the suburbs and The Sims are a great game because they allow those who play to create the world the way they want. If we have vampires why not farming?
i agree
I think that farming should be a game pack or stuff pack but not a expansion pack
We don’t need a farming pack I would not buy
The ‘Farming Simulator’ series on Steam does a great job of immersing you in the world of the farmer. A Sims 4 expansion pack will give you some new vegetables, a couple of new animals, maybe some machinery [maybe] and a load of unrelated clothes, household items and the like. Lots have been getting smaller as the game has evolved…for a farming expansion they need at least 64×64 lots, otherwise it’s a waste of time.
I really want a medieval kind of pack with royals and castle and nights and stuff like that. I loved the sims medieval but i want to add that into the sims 4
I would love to have a futuristic pack like in the sims 3
I would love for the Sims 4 Creators to create an expansion pack based on Travelling. Not Jungle Adventure or Outdoor Retreat something much more original like traveling around the world. Paris Spain or Even Rome.
I would love an expansion pack like that with new jobs of becoming a travel agent or a stewardess or even a pilot.
With new aspiration of travelling the world. But also trying the cuisine they got to offer
This sounds amazing! I would definitely buy into this! Another career track could be along the travel blogger lines. Maybe it could expand on the existing worlds, depending on which expansion and game packs you already have. Then a beginner blogger has a few “local” areas to visit. As they get more views/visits, they can start to travel “internationally” into the new worlds that a Travel Expansion Pack would bring. Aspirations could be learning new languages, visiting every museum, trying new cuisines, learning to cook new cuisines, etc. Unlocked items could be cultural from the places that are visited/challenges completed there. An opportunity to study abroad via Discover University, add on something like International Restauranteur, International Law, etc for Careers. Oh the possibilities!
You know what’s REALLY missing in Sims is Mining – we have Mining in Minecraft, Terraria, Roblox – the list goes on! It’s time to send our teens and young adults into the mines!
