Check out the first official teaser for The Sims 4 Expansion Pack 21!
It appears we’re getting the full Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy Expansion Pack reveal very soon! Players who remained in the EA Creator Network have shared a new official teaser website titled letterfromthesims.com, in which new teasers can be discovered for the next EP release. Let’s break it down at everything shown!
A Letter From The Sims
The new Letter from The Sims official teaser website contains a mysterious scroll locked behind a secret passkey. Thanks to a tip from creator @VelvettBYT, you can use the following code to open the scroll: EMBER-2LDP
Here’s what the first public part of the scroll says:
MOST ESTEEMED Velvett
In The Sims, the most meaningful things are often the ones you don’t plan.
They unfold in small moments… A story that takes an unexpected turn, a choice that lingers longer than you thought, a world that slowly becomes something more than you imagined. Through the lives you create and the worlds you shape, you’ve helped make this space playful, personal, and full of possibility.
From the far corners of the land, your influence can be felt. Not as a single act but as part of a story that keeps growing through curiosity, care, and just the right amount of chaos.
As new chapters wait just beyond view, they do so with the same spirit at heart: stories to tell, worlds to explore, and traditions that begin when you least expect them.
So take a moment. Enjoy what’s been built because there’s always more simmering just beneath the surface.
THE LEGACY CONTINUES,
The Sims Team
A Secret Behind The Flame
There’s a secret message that users of this website can uncover by clicking on the “Click to Reveal Secrets” candle at the bottom of the site.
If you wish to pursue power, you must do so carefully. Plot your next move wisely..you never know who’s watching.
All will be revealed on January 15th, 8am PT.
A new icon can also be found at the beginning of the letter:
There’s also a part on the dark version of the Letter from The Sims that mentions “C was here”. Players are hopeful that this is a reference to Princess Cordelia, and that she’ll be involved somehow in this DLC release:
The website also appears to include a teaser icon of three new neighborhoods / kingdoms / monarchies (we’re still waiting for the fully correct term!) coming with this Expansion Pack. Take a look:
The Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy has already been accidentally revealed by the official South Korean Game Rating Classifications page. The rumored release date for this pack was set for February 2026, and with the official announcement coming so soon it shouldn’t be a while until we hear official first information on Royalty & Legacy!
What are your thoughts on the first official teaser for the next Sims 4 Expansion Pack? Let us know your opinion in the comments down below and stay tuned on Sims Community for all things Royalty and Legacy!
What do you see in the three symbols? One looks like pirate/monarchy, another is perhaps classically chivalric, and the other is probably African. But unfortunately, the symbols don’t tell me enough yet.
Seahorse: Probably where Princess Cordelia came from – a coastal kingdom (looks Mediterranean).
Other than that, I don’t know, but I can’t help but feel like the top one could be Selvadoradan too. I also wouldn’t put it past them to add some version of the MySims Kingdom in there (although I’d prefer seeing the Sims Medieval world remade).
I was playing her Legacy, as a young adult, when My Wedding Stories came out. Now She’s an Old Lady with a Boat on top of her Hair!
I may have to edit some things when this comes out. She can be the default Queen! lol
Top one reminds me of a heavily stylized Protea flower, so we’re probably going to get something vaguely South-African inspired? Kinda disappointing, I was hoping I would get to use the Courtyard Oasis kit in the so-called African world.
How about three kingdoms based in three elements? Earth, Sea & Air.
Seahorse & anchor, tree & sword & fleur de lis alike
C was here 😉
The reaser also seams to tease project x
How?
“The legacy continues”, maybe. I thought that too but idek
What website has this again? Because I cant find any Sims website with this?
It’s letterfromthesims.com 🙂
The Letters! My Type Of Carrying on!
As long as I have to keep fighting for reggae station, let me look at three symbols, OK?
The lotus flower symbol will be an African kingdom, as we all know
The laurel sword symbol, I hope it’ll be a European kingdom
And with the symbol of a seahorse and an anchor… I want it to be Caribbean, but some simmers said it’ll be Mediterranean even if we wanna see Princess Cordelia.
What y’all think?
It would be nice if there was something Slavic there…
the whole princess C makes sense “Supposedly” She came from a “Mediterranean world” then “Took refuge”with “Pirates” so I “GUESS” That could be a pretty good reference/Clue and she “loved” music and Art sooooo? Awhile ago we got the pack that had all the Music “references” remember the paintings and the “Saxophone” in a “Display case” so maybe….
Why do you have quotes around everything, lol.
I still don’t know what to expect and how gameplay could look like but i’m interested. Maybe I’ll like it
I like the legacy element of it but I don’t wish for a royalty pack. I want to be able to play with several generations and that part of the family can move out and I can keep track of all of them. I want that younger sims can have funerals for older relativs even if they dont live together. But that might be too much to wish for.
Mohamed bin Salmán bin Abdulaziz Al Saud approves this teaser
True, true
The people down voting this need to unearth their heads. Seriously. Stop supporting EA.
I have a question can we create an event for the Sims like throwing a royal ball or banquet or coronation for a king or a Queen for every legacy in the pack ?
That code is specifically for Velvett. How do we receive our own code?
Honestly, I cant tell if I’m excited or not. I really hope this isn’t a rushed pack. I can tell this has no much potential. I feel like every expansion pack in past couple of years has been super super rushed and half finished. I was really excited about the business and hobbies one and i ran through the game play in 2 or 3 days. I was so disappointed in how easy it was.
My guess is Mediterranean, Arabian, and Scandinavian/Celtic.
