The Sims 4fans are speculating that a new music expansion might be on the way after two prominent musicians postThe Simscollaboration content on social media. The community has been hoping for a music-themed content expansion for years, with fans begging EA to add the ability for their Sims to form bands and create music. In light of two surprise collabs, the hope for a music expansion has been renewed for many—but nothing is certain yet.
Fans have new hope for a coming music content pack afterT-Pain and KISS both made references toThe Sims 4on their social media accounts. Earlier this week,T-Painannounced on X that theSimsteam “made me an actual fairy…and it is magical.” Classic glam rock band KISS also shouted outThe Sims 4on the officialKISSTikTok account, asking: “How many likes to get a KISS expansion pack?” The two musicians' posts appearing back-to-back has led many fans to speculate that something big is on the way.
Sims 4 Might Be Teasing A Music Expansion
Social Media Posts May Indicate Something Is Afoot
A music expansion forThe Sims 4has been long overdue, and all the recent music-related activity may indicate that EA will finallygive the community what it wants. Earlier this week,EAannounced thatT-Pain would be hosting the “He Was a Fairy in The Sims” livestreamscheduled for today. There’s been no official word on a KISS collaboration, butthe timing of the TikTok is suspiciously close to the T-Pain fairy announcement.
Reddit userHargreeves_placed the two posts side-by-side, noting that “this feels like the lead-up to a music expansion.” Others are hesitantly hopeful, like Redditornezu_bean/Reddit, who writes: “A band pack would be amazing.” They, along with several others, hope thatmusic content will come in the form of a content pack, rather than an expansion, which would add less content but keep it focused on the music element rather than introducing a new location or other additions.
Another Sims Sessions Event Could Be More Likely
EA Unlikely To Release Another Expansion So Soon
Unfortunately, in light of the newEnchanted by Natureexpansionthat EA released just a week ago, it seemsunlikely that the company is teasing another new expansion so soon after.CourierClementineon Reddit notes that the more likely explanation is that EA is probably gearing up for “another Sims Sessions Concert.” The in-game festival was held in July 2021 and features livestreamed Simlish versions of hits by musicians like Glass Animals, Bebe Rexha, and Joy Oladokun.
Ealier this year, content creators receivedThe Simscalendars that also hinted at band content coming in November, as can be seen in an X post fromkimbasprite. Whether EA will finally add a band expansion toThe Sims 4or KISS is just genuinely hoping to be included in a future pack, it’s clear that something big is definitely on the way.
