The upcoming Expansion Pack for The Sims 4 is named “High School”
It’s official: Our #1 Fan since Day 1 – Nick, has just got the survey:
It’s official. We are getting The Sims 4 High School Expansion Pack. I am so confused, but so so happy and curious.
EA has just done the biggest leak this year.
The name of the Expansion Pack seems to have leaked on an official EA Survey.
Demi from The Sims Society posted an official survey from EA that she’s got asking about user experience with The Sims 4. The survey talks about which of the Packs has the players played.
The list for The Sims 4 Expansion Packs mentions all of the Packs released this year, including High School. Which hasn’t even been announced yet.
I think the Sims has just leaked their own game in a sims survey they sent out!! I got the email to do the survey, within it, it asks for he game packs you’ve got – werewolves was on that list. Now for EP’s it’s got HIGHSCHOOL At the top!? ARE WE FINALLY GETTING SOMETHING FOR TEENS!? Picture of survey email and survey!!!
The story is still in development. Stay tuned for more information!
Feels a bit crappy them separating it from Discover University if that’s the case. Obv I do want more for my teens, and that could include school gameplay, but I’m not sure I’d want an entire school focused pack, and if I did I’d want it to also be for the younger kids too.
If this would be real (which it’s NOT), it would totally make sense for it to be separate from Discover University.
I actually hope this was a typo and not an actual leak for a future EP as I don’t know how you could give us an EP worth of stuff with high schools(I could see a GP at best) as I honestly don’t want a full EP giving us the americanized version of high school
Edit: If you look carefully, high school is at the top while the rest are in order. there is also the case of Eco Lifestyle being worded as Eco Living. I think this is a fake leak
You’re right it doesn’t sound super real, at least for a final title. You’d think it’d be like Get to School or smth
I just searched for this because I came accross this in the survey. Seems like where the list starts is randomised because High School was in the middle for me. Also they did write Eco Living but it is definitely the official survey. I can’t say that this means the expansion pack is coming for sure but I can confirm the screenshot is real.
I think what they could do just stuff for being a teen in general. I think we just need a lot more for teens because they’re basically just smaller adults
So a BG update and a gamepack to add in teen activities that pairs well with DU & Parenthood? It really doesn’t scream EP scope and it really won’t help the complaint of sims 4 being more america simulator if its is an EP with Prom, Bands & other stereotypes of highschools in Hollywood films & shows
If it has Bands I’m all in for it!
I’d honestly prefer if bands was its own pack, would be a way to update music making as a whole and the theme of the items could easily be a mixture of grunge, glam rock(giving more face make up options and lovely poofy “straight” hair, think bands like KISS), Jazz and other musical themes that have uniquely theme known to it in items
A “Bands/Music” game pack! Oooooooh I would buy that!
The order depends on the language actually.
this is an AMERICAN game, and the sims have been very inclusive to all cultures. so get over it!
it took us decades to get good cultural rep that isn’t touristic stereotypes. Sims 4 still lacks proper Jewish representation in the items(the hannukah candle really isn’t much in the grand scheme of things) and the team have only really remembered Asian Lunar new year, forgetting the Jewish Calendar where the new year starts in September or the various other cultures that have holidays.
Reminder that it took the sims team 6 years to give us proper skin tones and of the 2 packs themed around Turtle Island(native name for america, so I’m talking native groups that welcome yt civilization), 1 still has a minor tourism feeling to it(JA’s World is a vacation world unless you use mods). The Sims is meant to be a life sim, not a white american sim. Maybe do your research and realize why BIPOC folk have said its not super inclusive instead of getting super defensive and pretend the place the game is made has any real pull here esp when the sims has been a franchise for 22 years at this point.
Nah, the list order in the survey can be different, see the second source linked at the top. It’s also not the first time they messed up a pack’s name in official material. Most EPs are already GPs with basically bigger words (minus GTW), and that’s pretty much it, so…
I would hope it would include home school.
( at least after the past 2 years ) and boarding school…
Thinking of what Sims 3 had to offer for teens in the Generations EP.
I thought this was a joke itinually..
Time will tell…..
I kinda hope this isn’t true because high school is very narrow for an EP, like what about other teen gameplay, what about elementary school? And as a non-American I can see myself not relating to it. The fact that there’s no option for customisable school uniform in the game yet (and I’m not counting the weak but appreciated attempt made in snowy escape) says a lot, and restrictions like not allowing kitchens in university dorms really got on my nerves because that isn’t the case in my country at all. Like just give us the option at least. But maybe that’s just me and I’m happy for the Americans that a High School pack will probably make happy 🙂
Maybe they would be focusing on other aspects of “High School”. So for example, high school life includes more than the classes portion we have in university, there’s also extracurricular activities (sports, band, cheerleading, etc), prom, homecoming, graduation. And they could also bring a twist with private vs public school, maybe make more of a distinction between the two like it used to be for previous sims games. But overall I think it would be a good opportunity to give teens their own unique activities to focus on, which is something they are lacking, and by naming it “High School” it could very well encompass multiple activities for sims of high-school age… or at least I hope lol
This is fake, if you look it mentions Eco Living (not Eco Lifestyle) Also anybody would be a fool to believe in this.
I mean it would be foolish to believe this source but there was a survey asking if people wanted high-school and it was very popular so I wouldn’t write off a pack on high-school but this I’d probably wouldn’t believe .
The page isn’t secure either
I did not see the Pixelade collateral damage coming XD
I for one would like a pack like this. This could have a lot fo fun possiblities, for example teens usually learn to drive while in High School so maybe we would finally get vehicles, another fun thing Prom there is so many possibilities that could come with this pack. Also do not believe this is fake this site did not say anything about this possibly being fake other wise they would have stated that!
The Sims 4: None of these sounds very exciting!
it should be better known as 3/4 of Generations
it should be better known as 3/4 of Generations
oh god, seriously?
I would have liked a school pack. But not exactly one that focused soley on Highschool. I feel like one for Preschool, Elementary and Highschool would have warranted an Expansion. But Soley on High school? This has to be a gamepack. That being said, if this is to truly give teens more of a customization and fleshed out story, I’d defiantly give it a chance. But personally, I would prefer a school pack that allowed us to make custom schools for all of the younger age groups.
If it’s real , it’s cool! But if it is fake, then meh!
There was this survey back in 2020 that suggested malls, heists, and high schools were one of the potential themes. Not surprised they focused on that since the community seems to focus on more content for kids/teens.
For those that don’t remember this the official description of that survey: “American High Schools. Cafeteria cliques, racy relationships and SAT struggles, the halls are alive with the sound of drama”
There is a survey, but highschool wasn’t listed. Neither are any of the newest packs.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/98PK2YF
Because they updated the survey. So many sources were able to confirm that on the community even!
If the whole EP is focused on High Schools then maybe they redesigned teens to look less like adults. It would be actually cool.
Or what if they will give us an opportunity to customize a school for every neighborhood? Like school uniform, some after school activities etc. Similar to how we are now able to customize Neighborhood Stories, holiday traditions in Seasons or events in Weddings GP.
But anyways I’m thrilled to get something new for teens!
I’m thinking ‘highschool’ is probably just a working title as they haven’t (yet) announced any EP’s this year.
Can anyone tell us how we get this survey? How can we know if it’s real if we can’t find the survey confirming it’s true?
I’ve always hoped that they would bring team sports to kids or teens. The description on the Athlete career talks about playing since childhood. Even if it were a rabbit hole like Drama it would be an improvement. But I am not holding out hope that this “leak” is real – too many inconsistencies.
I’m still skeptical because high school is not enough for an expansion pack. If it was part of a family pack I could see it.
its fake and its not even a good fake. just highschools for a whole expansion? give us the generations.
