On the heels of Vintage Glamor Stuff, EA has announced the next two DLCs for The Sims 4. While we don’t have the official titles, it’s been confirmed a Vampire Game Pack will release this winter, followed by a Bowling Stuff Pack this spring. Yes, bowling. Check out the teaser video below:
The icon for the vampire pack is retractable teeth, but it’s still not clear if the GP4 will only focus on vampires, or the general supernatural world like The Sims 3 did. The clip showed a graveyard and a bat, which could mean zombies too. The new walk-style animation leaked last month was more of a zombie / possessed dead man walk than that of a vampire.
The second DLC is most definitely bowling-themed. In a perfect world, I’d really hope this becomes a skill, since that was somewhat of a missed opportunity for basketball, which relies on the athleticism skill. However, the animations and tricks that come with the basketball activity -- once your Sim levels up in athletics -- are awesome. But considering it’s just a stuff pack, I doubt a whole new skill would be introduced, especially for something like bowling.
Nonetheless, I’m sure it will be a great group activity with some cool interactions and objects. Fans of the franchise have seen bowling before in The Sims 3: University Life and The Sims 2: Nightlife. While it’s not the most game-changing activity, it’s certainly worthy of a stuff pack.
