Re: Can't make a bundle with sims packs

Hey @Alicerose001,

Just to clarify, were you just having trouble adding Cottage Living to a bundle? Or are you not able to build a bundle at all?

The newest pack isn't immediately available to bundle, so if this is only Cottage Living giving you trouble that's still pretty normal at this point. 

While we don't have a specific date it does usually take a few weeks or so for a new pack to be available to bundle. If this is just Cottage Living giving you trouble you'll want to just check back a bit later to see when that's added to the bundle section.

  • Thank you for that. Yes I have been trying to make the bundle with Cottage Living. Is it going to be available for bundle before September, there is an offer that if purchased before a certain time you can access extra content and I was hoping not to miss out on that.

    Unfortunately we don't have a specific date available for when that will be available to bundle, sorry.

    It's generally within the range of a few weeks or so, which would put it around late August. If that stays the same hopefully you'll be able to get that before September hits, though I can't say for sure.
  • Hello. It's September 2nd, and I still can't make a bundle out of Cottage Living. It says "You're quite the collector! Because you own so much content for The Sims 4 already, we can't create a totally new bundle for you at this time. Please check out our individual packs to grab something new."

  • @sofiaNei Same here. I believe that perhaps that's another push for people to buy it at full price to get that content. I'm going to check back tomorrow and hope that it's available to bundle, but I'm not holding my breath ☹️

    Hey there!

    That message would just indicate there isn't a separate unowned pack in each section available to create a full bundle at this point.

    We don't typically have specific dates available ahead of time for when the newest packs will be available for bundles, so it would just be a matter of continuing to check back from time to time I'm afraid. 

  • @EA_Mako Thanks for the reply. I have a few stuff packs available to buy, but I have all other expansions and game packs purchased except Dream Home and Cottage so I expected this to be the case. It's a shame there is no clarification on the side of EA to enforce some clarity on when this might be available, but I also appreciate that as much money from each pack within the first month or so is important to the business.

    Thanks for helping the community with these questions, and I hope you wont have to answer many of mine again in the future!

  • I wanted to bundle Cottage Living + Dream Home Decorator+ Nifty Knitting Stuff Pack

    Do you think I am stupid enough to try and create a bundle when I don't have the available packs?

    But everybody talked about a few weeks and September the 2nd... Well?

  • @EA_Mako Im unable to bundle the high school years pack. I understand the pack isn't available for bundling right away but it's already October 9th. It's been 2 months since it released,all threads I've read about this says it takes a few weeks. I have at least one pack that I still need to get from each category so I'm not understanding why I can't bundle yet.
  • @MossyH16 Same here but now it’s March 4th, I’m really hoping that it will be able after growing together but I doubt it 😔
