You get an extra month to complete four weeks of quests!
In a surprising turn of events, The Sims 4 Nature’s Calling Event has been extended by The Sims Team. For almost an entire month!
The latest Sims 4 Live Event, which was supposed to end today (August 5th) has a new end date. And it’s for The Sims 4’s 11th anniversary on September 2nd!

Thanks to @lunar_britney on X for the discovery!
What could be the reason?
There’s no current information on why the latest Sims 4 Nature’s Calling Event has been extended. However, players believe that there could be a correlation with The Sims 4 Glitch on Console where players couldn’t claim the rewards, or link their EA accounts.
The Sims Forum thread titled “Can’t Claim event rewards/Connect to gallery/No Gallery” has been upvoted by more than a hundred players, with no possible workaround at the moment.

When I go to claim the rewards it says that I must be connected to the internet. I am connected to the internet and I’ve checked the settings and everything else. I should be able to claim them but no matter what I do I get the same pop up. Ive tried claiming them from the menu and live mode. Nothing seems to be working. Im on console (ps4) and have the latest update.

This specific issue has been marked as “Under Investigation” by The Sims Team, with more updates on this glitch hopefully coming soon.

When will show up the option to complete the quests? I only need the re-traidpotion.
What mainly annoys me about these events is that if you miss it for whatever reason (scheduling issues, the gameplay not being interesting to complete the tasks so you procrastinate, etc) there’s no option for the items to be released at the end of the event or end of the year. I understand it’s for the incentive to play that’s it’s locked behind gameplay but I wished it would unlock later. Like if you play during the event you get the items earlier. I do get the modded unlocks though so I’m happy about that.
They are a drag, but if you’re on PC you can also just use the UI Cheats mod and be done with them in 2 minutes, just right clicking the quest boxes as they appear. Absolute godsend 🙂
When can we participate? The main lobby says event extended but it won’t let me select play now???
I’m actually angry about this extension because I was on vacation visiting family overseas until the very end of this event and stayed up until three to finish it but I had work at eight and I’ve been functioning all day on three and a half hours of sleep. Announce this one day earlier and save me so much pain.
i’m tired of these events tbh. the things your sim needs to do for them are super boring and not interesting at all. they don’t make the game more fun or engaging at all. i feel like only a completionist who refuses to use mods would care about these. it’s so easy to just drop the mod that unlocks all the items into your mod folder instead. i don’t want another month reminding me about something i don’t care about.
honestly, these events need a replay option once they’re done. add a submenu on the main menu where we can activate past events as much as we’d like, and complete them for the rewards. think of world of warcraft’s timewalking or how guild wars 2’s living world episodes work. that’d make these events way fairer for console players.
Ever since the extension, I can *see* what the next steps are in the event (like crafting the chairs, etc.) but the options to do the task don’t pop up. With the chairs, I have the woodworking table, beyond the level required for handiness, and the chair reward claimed, but when I click on the woodworking table, I can’t access an option to craft the chairs. I’m assuming this is probably an issue with other tasks as well.
