Summer Vacation Continues in The Sims FreePlay: Get Out of Town!

The second installment of The Sims FreePlay’s Summer Vacation Series has arrived, bringing fresh events, creative builds, and plenty of seasonal mischief. Following the first sun-soaked update, this new chapter invites players to hit the road and explore beyond SimTown.

Exploring New Horizons

After making a splash with the first summer release, the newest update, titled ‘Get Out of Town!’, expands the seasonal theme with travel, outdoor adventures, and more content-rich events. 

From setting up camp in the great outdoors to transforming a sprawling coastal property, the summer escapades continue to heat up. One of the standout additions is the Peninsula of Poseidon, a massive lot designed to resemble a charming seaside retreat, complete with bell towers, flower-filled arbours, and vibrant mopeds. 

But players should be cautious—rumors at the summer camp suggest that local birds have developed a fondness for “borrowing” binoculars. Best to keep them close. 

Freezer Bunny Hunt: “Sun’s Out, Buns Out!”

A new community event is stirring excitement across SimTown. Reports indicate that three types of Freezer Bunnies have escaped from their chilly storage spaces and are now causing adorable chaos throughout the city. 

Spotted in parks, public spaces, and even event venues, each bunny sports a unique summer flair: a sunlounger stowaway, a marshmallow muncher, and a binocular-wielding birdwatcher. 

Here’s how the event works: 

  • The hunt begins once the update is downloaded. 
  • Players who log in daily will receive a new clue and a small in-game reward via inbox. 
  • Clues lead to hidden Freezer Bunnies scattered across SimTown, some of which may appear in locations that unlock later in the game. 
  • This is a community event, meaning if one player finds a bunny and it’s reported, it counts for everyone.
  • The event will unfold in three waves, each lasting six days.
  • If all bunnies are found during a wave, a collective reward is unlocked for the entire player base. 
  • Updates and sightings will be shared on the game’s official social media channels, where players can also contribute screenshots and tips. 

 

Sim Your Summer: Social Media Competition

A themed contest will also be taking place across The Sims FreePlay’s social media platforms. The 10 best entries will receive 500 Social Points (SP).

Details of the competition are scheduled to be revealed on Saturday, July 26. Interested players are encouraged to follow the game’s official accounts on Discord, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram to stay informed.

 

Upcoming Events in the Summer Vacation Series

Here’s a rundown of the new limited-time events included in the update: 

SimChase 89: Camping Is In Tents!

The campsite is heating up with competition. Outdoor survivalist and self-proclaimed celebrity Teddy Thrylls returns to lay claim to the best birdwatching spot. Will Sims be able to outpace him? 

Craft Challenge: Peninsula of Poseidon

A mysterious postcard leads to a once-in-a-lifetime renovation opportunity—a massive seaside property with endless charm, waiting to be restored. Players can earn items inspired by Mediterranean aesthetics in this event. 

Influence Island Season 69: Lord of the Bugs

Chaos erupts at summer camp as a group of rebellious preteens, led by Jack Eagle, oust their camp leader. It’s up to players to restore order—if they can get past the food fight first. 

Influence Island Season 68: Driving with Daisies

An entrepreneurial Sim dreams up a mobile flower shop, but rival Florence Vann has the same idea—and her eyes on the same delivery van. The community must decide who wins this floral face-off.

SimChase 90: The Grand Havarest Room

Venus de Flusho is back and once again lost in the lavatory—this time, a grand and luxurious one. Players will need to act quickly to claim the opulent restroom before she takes permanent residence.

Woodworking Hobby Event: Nailed It!

Master craftsman Carpenter Kostas visits SimTown to host summer woodworking workshops. Participants can earn unique rustic furniture pieces to decorate their Sims’ homes.

Influence Island 37: Cabana Bar

The popular Cabana Bar event returns, offering another chance to earn stylish tropical furnishings and create a resort-style bar for Sims to unwind—or stir up a little drama.

Craft Challenge: Holidays & Helipads

This event lets players unlock luxury holiday home items, including a helipad and helicopter. It’s the ultimate summer flex.
