It appears that The Sims 4: High School expansion might be nearing its official announcement, as it’s been indirectly confirmed with a new image. If proven true, the pack will be the next major content update for the game after the Werewolves expansion which was released earlier this week.
The Werewolves Game Pack was officially revealed at the beginning of June, promising expansive werewolf lore for players to discover. Besides turning in-game characters into supernatural werewolves, the pack has also introduced a new world named Moonwood Mill. Included in the DLC are new gameplay mechanics, allowing players to participate in lycanthrope-specific activities and join wolf packs. Now that the werewolf pack has seen its full release, the next pack might already be on the way.
The anticipated The Sims 4: High School expansion, which was previously leaked in a poll held by EA, has received confirmation from The Henford Hen on Twitter. According to the user, they’ve been notified by a subscriber who spotted the aforementioned expansion on the CDKeys.com website. As of the time of writing, the DLC’s listing is still live, claiming that the pack will allegedly release on July 27. Despite there already being a specific price, The Sims 4: High School is not currently available for pre-order. No information on what’s included in the DLC is provided either. Currently, the pack contains a generic The Sims 4 description that lists activities from the base game. However, the promotional artwork looks somewhat believable, although it slightly differs from official The Sims 4 DLC covers and might be fan-made.
Even if the High School pack turns out to be fake, there’s still enough content for players this summer. Alongside the Werewolves Game Pack, a small update was released, reintroducing one of the best forms of death to The Sims 4. While gazing at the stars via a newly added telescope item, characters can now see an approaching meteorite capable of stomping them into the ground. Ghosts of Sims slain by these interstellar objects will even bear their cause of death eternally inside their own chests.
While The Sims 4: High School listing raises more questions than answers, the fact that it’s publicly available at a popular retailer suggests that the placeholder information might be replaced with official details. It’s rather doubtful that an online store could’ve added a completely fake expansion to its library. This also isn't the first time that the High School expansion was leaked, which adds weight to the recent speculation. However, as with every unconfirmed rumor, there’s a possibility that all leaks are misleading. Either way, the pack’s alleged release date is just a month away, which means a confirmation - or a refutation - is coming soon.
