Sims 4 to Get Monthly Content Updates For the Rest of 2014

EA has revealed plans to release some new content for The Sims 4 for free between now and the end of 2014.

Among the various bug fixes that are commonly found with game’s patches, a post on the Sims Blog details what players can expect in the game’s upcoming monthly updates.

October:

“• October brings the spoooooky addition of Ghosts to The Sims 4. Your dead Sims can now rejoin the world of the living, where they maintain all the attributes they had a as a Sim, but with special new behaviors based on how they died. Invite them to join your Sims’ household and they can be playable characters; if you dare, you might even find a way to bring your ghosts back to life.

• Did you feel that disturbance in The Force? It was probably our new Star Wars Costume Set. Outfit your Sims in Luke Skywalker’s X-wing pilot suit, Leia’s white robes and awesome cinnamon buns, Darth Vader’s suit and, yes, even Yoda. I mean, who out there hasn’t dressed as Yoda for Halloween, right? Now you can in The Sims 4, too!

• Community requests like new eye colors are in there, too. I have personally just given all my Sims purple eyes. Because I can. We’ve also fixed a few minor bugs as well.”

November:

In November, get your Sim-suits ready (too much pun? Sorry!) because pools will make their triumphant debut in The Sims 4.

December:

December is Put-Your-Sims-To-Work Month, as we introduce new Career paths and rewards.

Recently, it was stated that The Sims 4’s success will determine whether the franchise will receive a fifth installment.
