At E3 2019, EA revealed theIsland Living expansion packforThe Sims 4, adding things like mermaids and magic to the life simulation game. Now it looks like the world ofThe Sims 4is expanding even further, as a new listing on the Xbox Games Store has leaked the existence ofThe Sims 4university expansion, entitled Discover University.
The Sims 4university expansion is expected to be revealed on October 22 at 11am ET. However, the since-removed Xbox Games Store listing has given fans a pretty good idea as to what to expect in terms of new content. According to Reddit user yourneighbortuturu who saw the posting before it was deleted,The Sims 4university expansion will feature three new careers, which will be Engineer, Lawyer, and Teacher. It seems as though players will have the choice between two different universities - Bright Chester and Foxborough Institute. New items will include mini fridges and bikes.

The Sims 4university expansion will have sims living with roommates, joining school organizations like Robotics, Debate, Art, and “a secret society.” It will also include classes like Bio, Art History, Computer Science, and strangely enough, “Villainy.” Sims' grades will be impacted based on whether or not they attend class. But when Sims aren’t busy taking classes, they can spend their time engaging in fun activities like “juice” pong.
We must stress that fans should still take this information aboutThe Sims 4university expansionwith a grain of salt. Even though it’s most likely legitimate, fans should always exercise caution when it comes to game news unless the news is from the developers or publishers themselves.
Luckily, the wait to learn aboutThe Sims 4university expansion won’t be a long one. EA is expected to officially announceThe Sims 4university expansion on October 22 at 11am ET. It’s quite possible thatThe Sims 4university expansion release date will also be announced, and it will likely come sooner rather than later. It’s usually only a matter of a few weeks or a month between the time anexpansion pack forThe Sims 4is announced and when it’s released.
In the meantime, theuniversity expansion forThe Sims 3was one of the last expansions released for that game, so it may be a sign thatThe Sims 4is nearing the end of its life. With next-gen consoles on the horizon, we wouldn’t be surprised to see an announcement forThe Sims 5at some point in the next few years.
The Sims 4is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
