Game Packs in The Sims 4 will have LOTS of new features, new gameplay, new clothing, new objects — for the same price as a TS3 Stuff Pack.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
To compare, TS3/TS2 Stuff Packs just had objects and clothing with zero new gameplay. How cool is that? I'm so excited.

Remember a few weeks ago when I said I'm working on my favorite Sims feature ever? That feature is the bear costume.

@kellym1016 @Lifesimmer TS3 Stuff Packs were $20 USD. TS4 Game Packs are $20 USD. HUGE shift in value.

I have taken easily 100+ screenshots with the bear. It is the funniest, weirdest thing we've done in so long. I just love it.

@DanaScullyMulde No. They sit in between in size. Stuff Pack (smallest), Game Pack (middle), Expansion Pack (biggest). Goldilocks style.

@Cinderellimouse They let us try out smaller, weirder, or more focused ideas that aren't big enough for expansions. I'm SO EXCITED.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
Folks are asking: Game packs fit in between Stuff and Expansion. Like Goldilocks. Stuff Packs < Game Packs < Expansion Packs

Outdoor Retreat (or GP01 as we call it internally) is going to release next month. It isn't far away!
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@Cinderellimouse I really hope Outdoor Retreat is successful. We have so many cool ideas.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@JamiePlayzSims There are a lot of factors. I don't know if they will be physical. We want them to be high value, low cost for you guys.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@thesimsita I work on the Gallery, Stuff Packs, and Game Packs.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@adventfear @Cinderellimouse Think of Game Packs as smaller Expansion Packs. We make content as needed where it fits and is fun.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@Simmer_BN I can't comment on our rate of release. It is something we discuss and change all the time.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@tehbenz There will be lots of fun stuff for you guys in the future.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@TurkkiToni Today, we're talking about Outdoor Retreat. We have years worth of content planned. Don't make assumptions!
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@Simmer_BN We determine this on a case by case basis, as with all content. We won't always have Traits, or Skills, or worlds, etc. for all.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@lib28x $20 USD
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@Official7ths @beyondsims It's $20 USD. I don't know what it costs in UK. Our intent is that Game Packs cost what Stuff Packs used to cost.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@Simmer_BN All the secrets.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@TurkkiToni We will typically announce things in 3 month chunks, like we did for Pools/Ghosts/Careers. But, not always.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@idlekaitlyn It's a new type of world. It is not the same as Willow Creek/Oasis Springs.
— Grant Rodiek (@SimGuruGrant) December 19, 2014
@TheSims4RU Ah. Well, I can't comment on international pricing. I have no exposure to that side of things. I just make the games.
