The Sims Team has released the official description + Key Features for The Sims 4 Cottage Living Expansion Pack – hitting the stores July 22nd, 2021!
Delight in the quaint charm of The Sims™ 4 Cottage Living Expansion Pack* with animal friends, garden-to-table meals, and a close-knit community. At home, cook with the family using the freshest ingredients. Explore the forest to befriend woodland creatures or forage for food, or head to town to meet the locals. Whether Sims are hugging a cow, making friends (or enemies) with their chickens, or growing the biggest vegetables around, the countryside is abundant with new experiences and ways to connect with the world around them.
Raise or Befriend Animals
The cottage cow provides fresh (flavored!) milk for everyone while chickens lay eggs in the coop. Gather llama wool for crafts, but beware of mischievous foxes – the pesky critters love eggs! In the forest, keep an eye out for wildlife like rabbits and birds to earn their trust for occasional gifts and help in the garden.
Live Off the Land
Make cooking and gardening fun for the whole family. New recipes and Lot Challenges require fresh ingredients for each meal. Whether Sims grow their own produce, visit the village market, or forage in the wild, fresh is best! Up for a challenge? Try growing oversized crops to enter into the competition at the Finchwick Fair.
Embrace Village Life
Henford-on-Bagley is a cozy village where everyone knows everyone. So pack a picnic basket and cross-stitch hoop, and head down to The Gnome’s Arms pub to kick back with the locals after a long day. Earn unique gifts and learn about the town’s lore from neighbors, or participate in the Finchwick Fair to show off your most prized cow or chicken.

I would’ve loved horses, but still a great pack. I instantly pre ordered.

Yea I’m not sure how they’ll include horses. I could’ve sworn there was some sort of coding for horses a few years ago (or a rumor). Granted, they could bring them in with fairies if they do a world similar to this. Maybe they’re saving it for an actual farm pack and aren’t going to release them until cars (tractors) are released is my only assumption. Unless they’re released in a stuff or kit pack.
Why wasn’t this a game pack? Its like there is no difference anymore…

There is no way EA would’ve given a GP the budget of an EP. Wait for it to go on sale to get a price similar to a GP.
This is lowkey going to be the best expansion pack.
