Sims 4 High School DLC Shows Off Proms & Classes In Release Date Trailer

A new Expansion Pack for The Sims 4 entitled High School Years has been officially announced, and will center around new teen activities and more depth for the adolescent life stage. Although not officially spoken of by EA until now, many players have long suspected the game's next Expansion would center around high school ever since a Sims 4 leak occurred earlier this month. The news of the new release has excited many fans, as it will be the first full Expansion Pack — the game's most comprehensive form of DLC — released for the game in nearly a year.

In almost every way, in-game teens look and act just as adult Sims do, save for the fact they must attend school.

EA has dropped hints over the past week about the High School Years Expansion Pack, dropping academia-related imagery into the latest roadmap for the game and posting a teaser video of Sims 4 creators discussing their teen years.
