The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle Expansion Pack is just a few days away until being released for both PC and Xbox One / PS4!
The game has been set to release on June 5th for all platforms worldwide. However, unlike with Game Packs and Stuff Packs, Expansion Packs have a “staggered” release schedule, meaning that the game has 5 different release schedules for different territories – and Eco Lifestyle will be no exception.
Each zone will have the pack released at midnight (or close to midnight). Since these staggered releases can get a little confusing I’ve included a full countdown timer for all 5 different territories down below! When the counter turns to zero in your territory you’ll be able to purchase (or unlock if you’ve already pre-ordered) the game, download and play it!
I’ll also be doing a special 10-hour Launch Party Livestream on Twitch to celebrate the release of The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle in Europe and North America down below! You can also CLICK HERE to join the Twitch Chat!
North & South America (Midnight EDT New York Time, June 5th)
Europe (Midnight CET Paris Time, June 5th)
Russia, Saudi Arabia, Israel & Turkey (Midnight MSK Moscow Time, June 5th)
Japan, Korea & the rest of Far East (Midnight KST Seoul Time, June 5th)
Australia & New Zealand (Midnight AEST Sydney Time, June 5th)
Why isn’t eco living on the ps4 for canada?? What’s going on its 9:00am here
Won’t be available until 1pm. You have to look at the PlayStation store and there should be a time it says it’s released. For the Xbox it’s 1pm.
They do this to us because we’re Consol players. Clearly not very important to them.
Same here in the US smh. It’s available on PC and Trashbox though
I am wondering the same thing!!!
Still not up on the ps store in Canada Ontario! What the heck man?!
12 PM in US and still no expansion on PS4??? What’s going on??
The game isn’t on play store yet and I live in America when will it be on the App Store
Same ugh
It’s still not available on console, but when I say this it is solely PlayStation. Xbox has released it, Pc has released it it’s just Playstaion who has to wait for who knows how long. (Uk
I know, I’m so mad !!
Game isn’t on console. I’m from Texas, USA. 10:12am.
13:24 in US, still no DLC drop
When will it be available on ps4
I pre ordered and installed it, but my game says that nothing has been installed. I have no access to any of eco living and yet it shows I own the pack.
I was really looking forward to playing it before work
Sims 4 eco is available now on PS Store 🙂 Finally !
They did an update for ps4, and I thought it was for eco living but it’s not there. I’m getting really irritated.
I pre ordered yesterday & I’ve literally been sitting around waiting like an idiot so I can play. Whats going on!??
I have xbox and it says it’s installed on when I go to my games but IN GAME it says it’s not installed.
Same i preordered it and it says it isn’t installed on my game and I have to download. what is this bs.
Do we have to wait until 12 pm on the 5th to play it? Its 9am central time and I’ve downloaded the game but it doesnt show up. I have restarted the console multiple time and tripled checked to make sure it was fully installed and it is. Whats going on?
Ps4 user here, stayed up last night and took holiday from work today for this release and still haven’t got it
1.26 Base Game Update atm, still no sign to buy eco in the shop on ps4 (1819, Germany)
Download a VPN (I use Tunnelbear) and set your time to Australia, and you can download it as soon as it releases there instead of waiting a full day.
location* I mean.
Bless You
Why does Origin have a release date of June 4th?? Irritating! Lol
Pre-ordered. Origin says June 4 with no time. I guess technically they’re not wrong – I’m in the US but Central time, which puts release at 11pm on June 4 rather than 12am June 5. Was hoping for earlier in the day though…
11pm for BST. In Ireland and the UK.
It’s really frustrating that it’s not out on ps4 yet. Specially because all/most of the game changers (and the gurus when they did that last live stream) advertised that it would come out on all systems on June 5th. I must’ve restarted my system 5 times before I went on my laptop to investigate the origins site. Just says Available June 5 …it is June 5th
What time for New Jersey saids 12 midnight and I don’t see it ??
Here we go!!!! EEEEEH!
I’m on PS4 an it still is not showing on PSN. Is 12:00AM Here
Aaaand it didn’t release. Ps4 in North America, 1am EST. Not even an icon or anything in the store.
Why can’t ps4 users get it now? Countdown was for pc and counsel????
Is there going to be an update at exactly 11?
Turkey is in european time too so in turkey its 1am release time.
i have playstation 4 so do i find it on playstation store?
plz help
help please 🙂
plz help
I can’t make a bundle 🙁 Do we know when this is fixed???
Is it June 4th or 5th for US? Because when I preordered it it says June 4th but the timer on her says June 5th
That’s what I’m wondering. It’s 6-4-20 12:39 here and my screen says unlocked and release date is today. So, I figured at like 12 it would of unlocked
What is Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle’s release date?
During its official reveal, EA confirmed the Eco Lifestyle expansion pack will be coming on June 4th, 2020 and will unlock at the following times:
11am BST
12pm CEST
6am EDT
3am PDT
The Eco Lifestyle expansion pack can be found in EA’s Origin store and it’ll cost you £34.99 / $39.99 /39.99€.
As written on Rock Paper Shotgun Gaming site. I have no idea if this is correct or outdated info.
I’m from the I’m the Uk and I downloaded protonVPN you get 7 day free trial. Chose the Australian VPN logged in to origin and says I can download it at 3pm. Your welcome.
Would I need to stay in Australia (with the VPN) to play it… or once I’ve downloaded it, I can just turn it off and play in the UK time… I’ve never used a VPN before ?? Thank you 🙂
No, just download the game, launch it, and then you can disable it if you need to. All it does is make your internet connection look like it’s coming from Australia, and as The Sims really only uses the internet for the gallery and whatnot, it won’t hurt to leave it connected for 8 hours.
I prefer Tunnelbear though!
To everyone here like myself who is either British like myself or from the Republic Of Ireland then at 11pm, we will receive the right to download and play the new expansion pack.
Just over 8 hrs to go for you Shamir
Guys the uk gets it June 4th at 11pm
Nope. Australia is ahead of UK so it will be later
Uhm…in the UK it will be the 4th at 11pm.
So yeah…
I didn’t
35 minutes to go for download in Australia
Great but what about uk time ….. we seem to get left out of everything these days ….
The UK is considered part of Europe. You have to do the math on your own. The America’s aren’t all in the same time zone either…
we’re part of europe… so not left out. maybe when we’ve left the union at the end of the year then we’ll have our own slot but until then we are europe.
We’ll still be in europe… just not the Europien Union…
Go to Origin, it will tell you the exact time the pack is released in your area.
Google it. I do that for livestreams to know when to come by (if I remember or have time) because those go by pacific time – unless that’s changed.

how about countries such as Malaysia though 😀
45 minutes for you…..!
Just downloaded mine…..8 minute download…..enjoy guys!
I have a question on origin and my sims 4 game it says it will be released on the 4th as in tmorrow, i am conffused, i did pre order it but it doesnt make sense as ea stated june the 5th
What would help with these times is to specify the GMT offset. Like, Eastern Daylight Time is UTC-4. This means its four hours before London. Meanwhile, Central European Time is UTC+1, which is an hour ahead of London. And AEST is irrelevant as Australia is an urban legend to scare children like the bogeyman or Michael Jackson.
I’m so confused because I pre-ordered it and it tells me on Origin that it should be available on the 4th (today) yet it’s past midnight and I see nothing ready to download in my queue. I’m just so eager to play it I’m getting impatient! haha.
Yeah I saw release date as today, too! Irritated haha
It is june 5th at 11:30am in uk and still not available for ps4???
UK console peasant here, my partner on PC, she has it. I don’t. Simultaneously released my ballpit
Currently 01:28 BST, glaring at my PS4 and wondering where Eco Living has gotten to…
Same here, but I’m looking over at my partner on PC loving it
Why can’t I get eco living on ps4??!!!!! It’s almost 7pm here and nothing… Why????
SIMS 4 ECO LIVING IS AVAILABLE ON PLAYSTATION STORE / PS4 (at least for France)
Can anyone tell me why sims 4 Eco Living not showing up on Ps4
Not impressed told it come out on the 5th. Been checking the store hourly and still nothing disappointing honestly.
Live on the east coast of USA, it’s currently 7:52am and no eco living on PS4 why are we the last to get any expansion packs, it’s so unfair.EA needs to do better
Well I am pissed! Took the day off work for this because of the midnight release claim… It’s now 7:45am and still nothing for PS4… Wtf.
And am in the uk
Packs on ps4 allways come out at 6pm or 7pm most of time i hate it. Waiting all day. But better then waiting 8 weeks or more. But this is the same day as pc here hopeing it come before 6 or 7
I’m a PS4 sims player… and I’m still waiting for the game to pop up in the PS4 shop and it’s not there??? 🙁 Anyone else the same?
Same here smh
Yup, PS4 here too, UK. Stayed up last night and watching my partner play it from 11pm till about 3am. Wake up this morning at 10:30, still nothing for me. Great.
Is it released yet in the uk??
