The new Sims 4 Stuff Pack will be released on 26 January 2021 and by the looks of it, this will pack a punch. Oh the puns. Below is the official Community Blog Post released by The Sims to announce the new DLC – the first for 2021. You can also check out the official trailer for The Sims 4: Paranormal Stuff over here.
Beware, Simmers, for something new is appearing before your very eyes: The Sims? 4 Paranormal Stuff Pack*, available on January 26, 2021!
Welcome to your Sim’s new home! Sure, the listing said ?haunted,? but everyone knows that’s just a myth. Why should you believe it? At night, though? well. The lights flicker overhead, casting shadows at your Sim’s feet. In another room, a door slams shut, even though no one else is home. And what was that sound? Where’s it coming from? This is getting weird. Okay, so it turns out there are some rumours that turn out to be true. These spooky spectres moved in first, and they don’t let anyone forget it.
Mysterious runes and clay hands appear randomly while crawling vines sprout in the yard. The sacred candle your Sim lit for safety blows out with barely a wisp of smoke. And no one knows where that horrifying doll came from. As the house gets weirder and weirder, goosebumps rise and scared Sims scatter in a panic-induced terror.
Luckily, your Sim doesn?t have to deal with this alone! There’s one helpful friend who’s happy to help: Claude Ren? Duplantier Guidry (the Ghost). This somewhat flirty apparition offers the secrets to serenity. Under his tutelage, learn how to appease the specters ruining a good night’s sleep.
Some spectres are playful, other mischievous, and a few are downright ornery. If they leave accursed objects behind, try to tidy up and remove them. Offer gifts or attempt communicating with the spectres to try and please them. If they?re satisfied, Sims might get a present in return as the spectre fades away. Otherwise, it’s time to turn to the s?ance table.
S?ances serve as a way to communicate with the world beyond. Perform a s?ance to sense the mood of specters, commune with the dead, or complete a ghastly ritual. Plus, Sims can summon Guidry for extra help or summon Bonehilda the skeletal maid for a spot of cleaning! Doing so builds a Sim’s Medium skill. (Do be careful not to go ghost yourself, though.)
Once a Sim overcomes their fear, restores balance to the home, and masters the paranormal, Guidry the Ghost presents a coveted Paranormal Investigator license. Basically, your Sim can become a ghost hunter. No, ghost tracker. Ghost? buster? You ain?t afraid of no ghost, right? Pick up gigs as a freelance Paranormal Investigator to help other Sims experiencing haunting phenomena and make a few Simoleons while you?re at it!
Get The Sims 4 Paranormal Stuff Pack on January 26, 2021, on Origin (for Mac and PC), Steam, Xbox One, and PlayStation?4 to start your spooktacular adventure!
