[Resolved] - Bug Pre-Ordered The Sims 4 Growing Together

 I come here to expose a problem with the pre-ordered of The Sims 4 Growing Together which is scheduled for release on March 16. Looking on the EA app to see the time of the expansion is available in Manage / Manage additional content / Downloadable expansions, I realized that the expansion was available for download on April 28, 2023 at 1 p.m.!!!

Am I the only person having this problem? Hoping that this will be fixed before the expansion is released. THANKS !

    Hey all,

    Apologies for the scare, Growing Together releases on March 16th and this visual issue has been flagged to the team for investigation now.

    Update: This should now be resolved for all players.

    I'm also concerned by this. I don't mind waiting until 10am my time to download, but I wish my preorder would show up on my EA account. I don't see anywhere to download the pack when the time comes, and it still says I need to preorder?

  • I installed the expansionpack growing together monday, and its 16 th april today. But when i play sims 4, there is no growing together, when i click on the pack, it just says that i already own it, and that it is installed. What do i do?

    Closing this down.

    Preordering content in the Sims does not grant early access to that content. You will be able to install the content on release.

    I think I have figured it out. At release time (6pm your time or 10am my time), click on the "manage add-ons" option for Sims 4 and it should be there under "downloadable content."
