When will EA release the first 2023 EP?

Oops, I voted May because I was thinking announcement, not release.

My guess is that the two expansion packs will come out June/July and November/December because it seems that's when they've decided they sell best, which makes sense with summer and Christmas.

They did say that the infant update is coming out early 2023, so that'll probably be patched in in January or February right before a random GP, just like the toddler patch and Vampires. There's no reason to think the infant patch has to come out around the same time as a generation expansion, even if that would be nice.

If a new EP was a possibility in January, I think we would have heard something by now. A GP could be released in February then a new EP in June. But it would need to be something truly exciting, with totally new content before I think about purchasing anything. The manner in which the latest packs are being released, plus the content in the updates, reminds me of how Sims3 was slowly phased out the year before Sims4 was released. The development teams seem to be wrapping things up, which is evident by the hinted at January release of freed babies. I expect there to be more of this as time goes on. Which is fine. It's about time they figured out how to untether those poor babies. I'm content with staying in hover mode and just play my game until more bugs are fixed.

I agree. I don't think we'll get the EP in January. They usually promote it for weeks before releasing, so I think February is the earliest we will see the EP.

I now think February and probably the first or second week.

I too think it's going to be in early February as well.

Yeah I do too, I'm hoping we get a roadmap on the 10th (next Tuesday) or the 12th by the latest, then they'll start teasing that new infants update and the newest pack/kits coming between January-March. With the first paid content releasing early Feb.

I was thinking February, but seeing the release windows for past dlc could end up having to wait till March or June.

Gonna go with March. That's 8 months since High School, and knowing upfront we'll most likely get 2 EPS this year, that would set it perfectly for another 8 months to November.

Since we don't have November up there...

Are we talking about expansion or game pack? Because expansions usually come out in June/July or November/December. I think game pack will be earlier though. Perhaps February as usual. Idk.... it's strangely quiet. No hints, updates, roadmaps, news, announcements...

We know it's not January by now. Hoping for February, which I would have never expected. I thought February was GP time?!
