Growing Together official trailer
The trailer for the next DLC release of The Sims 4 has officially gone live. Notably, it offers a glimpse of San Sequoia, a new city perfect for family life, self-discovery, and drama of all kinds.
The Growing Together debut trailer also teases the various ways players can expand their playable families. Raising young children and inviting older family members to move are some notable examples.
The Sims 4 Features Grow Together
From the EA website various pack content offerings are featured, which include new build mode items such as decor and furniture. Meanwhile, players can look forward to receiving additional hairstyles and clothing for Create a Sim.
Pre-ordering or purchasing the Growing Together package by April 27 will also bring additional goodies to users in the form of "outdoor digital content." A toddler slide, a sport-style baby carrier, and a set of swings are among the outdoor-focused bonus items.
Social Dynamics in The Sims 4 Growing Together Expansion Pack
In addition to the new San Sequoia environment, Maxis promises that Growing Together will have a much deeper social dynamic.
Choices and milestones will affect each character. Revealing or changing personality traits serves as another new addition that can handle midlife crises and field requests from family members who want to move.
This dynamic extends to public interactions as well, with the player character potentially having natural chemistry with some Sims while colliding with others instantly. This will be determined by "preferences that determine which Sims they are socially compatible with."
March should prove to be a busy time for the faithful sims, given that Growing Together launches just two days after The Sims 4 Infants update.
