Class Is In Session With The Sims 4 High School Years Expansion Pack Coming Late July

Electronic Arts and Maxis announced The Sims 4 High School Years Expansion Pack, offering players a chance to carve their own path as they navigate their teenage years. The expansion will be available on the 28th of July.

High school is a time of self-discovery, and in the latest expansion, players can live out their high school dreams as they make the most out of being a teenager, explore their identity, attend high school, and test boundaries through choices and growth, or just kill the swim team by removing the pool ladder. 

“The Sims 4 High School Years takes players on a journey of growth to tell personal stories of self-discovery and the drama of being a teenager,” said George Pigula, Lead Producer of The Sims 4 High School Years. “Sims will learn to juggle school and extracurricular events, form lifelong friends, and experience big moments like prom. They can even develop their own fashion likes & dislikes with the new Trendi app with clothes designed by Depop sellers. High school is an incredibly formative time, and we wanted to give players the chance to create and customize their own, personalized high school experiences before their Sims reach young adulthood.” 

In High School Years, players can craft their own experiences in the new world of Copperdale at school, after school, and on the weekends. Teen Sims will learn and grow, express themselves and transform their lives throughout the roller coaster of puberty.

For the High School Years Expansion Pack, The Sims collaborated with circular fashion marketplace app Depop: where the next generation comes to discover unique items. Fashion has always been a huge part of self-expression in The Sims, and the collaboration expands on the game’s fashion looks, as teen Sims can create their own sense of style and set trends for others to follow.

Sims can purchase clothing items designed by real-world Depop sellers Jeremy Salazar, Sha’an D’Antes, Lapoze McTribouy, Selena Williams, and Bella McFadden in-game at the local thrift store and boba hangout, ThrifTea, hype up their looks and earn Simoleons by selling outfits on the new in-game Trendi apps.

In addition to attending class and joining extracurricular activities at Copperdale High School, Sims can go on a date to remember at Plumbite Pier. Players can also customize their Sim’s prom experience, from promposal to picking the perfect prom outfit and getting ready for the big event, so Teen Sims can dance the night away with friends.

The Sims 4 High School Years Expansion Pack will be available on July 28 for PC and Mac via Steam and Origin, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One.
