That's not what they said. They said they have 'lots of exciting things to show you'. It hasn't even been confirmed by Maxis that a new pack is coming in June or July, or whether it will be an expansion pack.

That doesn't mean they won't announce the next pack (I'm hoping they do), but let's not get ahead of ourselves. It's still speculation. They might be showing the new swatches, for all we know.

They called the gamechangers out. They only do that with expansions and there is apparently going to be a trailer shown at the event. All this adds up to an expansion pack being announced. They may even announce the next stuffpack as well.

Even if the ep is releasing in July which I seriously doubt they have to announce it soon.

the closer it gets the more time seems to crawl by
I'm sure its not just for us though the game makers are likely on pens and needles wanting to talk about there work :)

They already announced the swatches. I dont think they will be showing off swatches at EA play :) @invisiblgirl

All they've said is 'exciting things to show you', not that they're announcing anything. We haven't seen the new swatches. I know that sounds a bit picky, but they do choose their words carefully (or end up deleting the tweet) because of SEC regulations.

I'm truly hopeful that we'll get some sort of new pack announcement, and I do think it's possible, but we don't know that's going to happen. I've already seen people stating that they'll be disappointed if they only announce the next expansion.

At this point, I'd buy just about anything - GF had no appeal to me, and Strangerville was fun, but didn't add much to game play. (I don't see much game play value in a tropical pack, either, if that's next, but I'll take the new content.) My Sims need new things to do!

8 days! :smiley:

You will be able to see the stream on the forums, ea.com, EA's Youtube channel or EA's Twitch channel - plenty of options to choose from! ;)
