The Sims 4 Seasons: More Information From EA Play
With EA Play now in full swing many fans have had the opportunity to get hands on with the new Seasons expansion for The Sims 4. We have rounded up all the information into one handy article for you.
Seasons
As originally reported by the Brazilian fan site SimClub, they have shared a couple of screenshots as well as a few bits of information that they gathered from the short time of playing the upcoming Seasons expansion for The Sims 4.
- As soon as we enter CAS and click to play, we can choose the season.
- When we choose the season, for example spring, we do not see the season ready immediately, only in the course of the game is that flowers bloom.
- That is, on the first day of the season, we still see remnants of the previous season… like trees still without leaves.
- The snow, although it has no depth, has texture, so apparently it does not have the same appearance as a field tincture.

Scout Badges
But that’s not all. Xmiramira also shared a couple of images the of the new Scout Badges on her Snapchat (thank you Kai for the screenshots). Also Mod The Sims user Hiabara shared some more details on Mod The Sims.
From what we know, your Sims will earn their Scout badges through completing certain tasks.
Snow
The ever so lovely RoryPlays_ shared a quick little tweet showcasing snow falling in the game and it looks so magical!
It’s snowing at EA Play! Standing here playing #TS4Seasons and it’s AAAMAAAAAAZING!!!
If you’re coming to EA Play, come by @TheSims booth to get HANDS ON Seasons!! pic.twitter.com/LYABmWHDiH

A Quick Overview
As well as what we have already mentioned above fans who have attended EA Play have shared their experiences with the expansion and one user on Reddit who goes by the name of BTEAMNORTH
I am actually really pleased with the way weather turned out. The effects are beautiful.
I love love the calendar too. 😍 I did notice that if you plan an event from your phone, it doesn’t give you the option to plan in the future. (Which is dumb) maybe it’ll be patched? I’m so excited to build. REALLY excited to add The Sims 4 Seasons to my game. 😬😬😬😬
Disappointed that there are virtually no new wall or floor options.. but those GLASS ROOFS. 😍😍😍😍😍
THEY’RE PERFECT.
If anyone has any questions, let me know! I dont think I saw everything, but I enjoyed what I saw!
— Someone asked if I had a Twitter: @BBTeamNorth
Has this got you excited for The Sims 4 Seasons? We can’t wait to be able play the expansion.
The Sims 4 Console: The Gallery Is Coming!
SimGuruDuke has shared on Twitter that The Gallery will be coming to The Sims 4 on Console’s in the next patch! Although it looks as though it is not the full Gallery that PC users have access to currently it is still a great start for console players. Hopefully the full version of the Gallery will be added in the future.
Wanted to share a preview of a new thing coming to console in the next update. Thx to @catloverplayer for the clever idea. Also, tag @SimGuruLegacy if you have suggestions for other content to bring over. pic.twitter.com/tcOKAUmZvI

The Sims 4 Seasons: Guru Q&A Part 4
With the release of the Seasons Game Play Trailer, the Sim Guru’s were back on Twitter to answer some more questions! We’ve compiled a list to make it easier for you to read:
This post contains a whole new batch of information regarding this pack. For more information and tweets check out Part 1 , Part 2 and Part 3 of our SimGuru Q&A tweet compilation!
SimGuruGrant
I think Holidays are VERY cool. one of our pillars for the pack is that Sims anticipate the future, that there is a sense of time passing. The calendar lets you celebrate key moments, tell stories, and create a “year” for your Sims. https://t.co/KyeF7weGMg

I’ll have to semi-dodge this question as we’ll discuss it more in the future.
Wait. That was a full dodge. https://t.co/Iup2QXavMw

Yup, the pre-made holidays can be renamed and traditions can be customized.
— SimGuruNeel (@SimGuruNeel) June 7, 2018
SimGuruHouts
Not impossible, but it’s a huge undertaking to update existing worlds. We had to do it to make seasons work anyway, so we took the opportunity to do some extra little things too.
— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) June 7, 2018
SimGuruMegs
I wouldn’t exactly say it’s like clubs as some of the holiday traditions have unique content that can only happen during the holiday.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
There are changes to the public spaces when the seasons change.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Yes, by default there are some holidays that will happen!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Not by default, but you could make a holiday for each day of summer where everyone has work and school off.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Gift giving is not limited to holidays!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Traditions are far more broad than club activities, which are very specific, so I don’t think it would actually make sense to add more of them. I am having a hard time even thinking of something that could be added in a future pack that would make sense for a new tradition.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
I would imagine Prom to be more similar to an event like the Birthday Party. I think when you get a chance to see how the holidays play, you’ll see that they play differently from events and club gatherings.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Yes, if Father Winter is a tradition for the holiday, he’ll magically appear when the hour strikes!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
You’ll be able to create your own Halloween holiday!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
I’m not sure what you mean, he is a part of the Winterfest holiday which will be on the calendar by default. Or you could create your own holiday where he appears.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
You’ll be able to make a holiday where you can remember those who have passed on.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
Sorry, not explaining this well. We did create specific traditions for things that make sense for holidays. However, I cannot think of anything we could add in a future pack that would require its own tradition instead of being part of a broad tradition.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
I don’t think we said that! I specifically told people that we would never do that!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) June 7, 2018
There is a difference between weather and seasons. All the worlds have seasons, but their weather will be different.
