With The Sims 4: Perfect Patio Stuff , Romantic Garden Stuff, Outdoor Retreat and Movie Hangouts outdoor TV accessories and beanbag chairs, Sims have a host of activities and objects to enjoy outside of the home. However, from the looks of the latest quarterly teaser GIF, it appears The Sims team has more outside ambitions up their sleeve. If rumors prove true, the next Sims DLC will be yet another $10 pack of goodies focusing on backyard activities.

Fans were able to screengrab a product page from EA Origin listing ‘Backyard Stuff’ after ‘Kids Room Stuff.’ While there isn’t a specific release date listed, Sims producers have told fans on Twitter to expect an official announcement sometime within the next three months.
The next stuff pack will be officially announced sometime over the next three months, with plenty of info to share at that time.

As you can see, the icon appears to be a glass of lemonade. There’s also a picnic basket with ketchup and mustard -- Backyard BBQ or Picnic Stuff would be a pretty cool.
SimGuruGraham also revealed this tiny teaser hints at a few things that aren’t related to the upcoming Backyard Stuff Pack. This could also be a tease for an upcoming expansion or game pack focusing on Seasons. It can’t be a coincidence the one Sim has a huge glob of unrubbed sunscreen all over his nose. It’s also fairly suspicious to see a baby Sim’s crib outside and the Grandma Sim thinking about the baby. Possibly an NPC Nanny in an upcoming free update? Every Simmers dream would come true if this is a nod toward toddlers.
.@Howdy_Simmer @TheSimScraper The quarterly teaser touches on upcoming content from the next three months, not just the new stuff pack.

.@alalasims I'll say what I've shared in the past though; don't expect lounge chairs in a SP. They would have to go in a larger pack.

The last two DLC releases -- Kids Room Stuff and Dine Out -- were two of the best Sims 4 additions yet, so as long as Perfect Patio Stuff Part 2 isn’t next up, we’ll be happy.
What do you think the teaser trailer is trying to tell us? How do you think The Sims can make Backyard Stuff stand out from Perfect Patio? Sound off below!
