Updated: The Sims 4 confirmed the new game pack will be unveiled on Opening Night.
The Sims Team will be doing the official reveal of their 9th upcoming Game Pack for The Sims 4 TODAY (August 27th) starting at 11AM PT / 8PM CEST / 7PM BT. The reveal will be shown during Gamescom's Opening Night Live livestream where many other video game publishers will also reveal their upcoming games for various platforms. Live mode is one of the three main modes in The Sims series, the others being buy mode and build mode.It is the default mode when the player loads an occupied lot. As the name suggests, it is the only mode in which the simulation runs and plays, where Sims live their lives and can be controlled, and where time can pass.
Simmers have been getting increasingly frustrated with the REDACTED lack of news from The Sims 4 team in recent weeks. An icon which many believe to be the icon for the next Sims 4 game pack was accidentally leaked three weeks ago.
That leak has sent us down a spiral of speculation that has involved some weird and wonderful theories.
But not a peep from The Sims 4 team. Well, actually several peeps but we don't speak peep so we have been winging it with the translations.
One thing we do know is that Electronic Arts will be at gamescom this week. And that might mean we could get something from The Sims 4 team then.
We might also get a little sneak peek of what to expect on Wednesday before gamescom – but we are not going to get our hopes up.
gamescom: When is it and how to watch
The event will take place from 27-30 August 2020 with 27 August being the big opening night. The opening night will feature a show that is two-hours long with a 30-minute pre-show beforehand.
While gamescom isn't somewhere The Sims have had big reveals before, but it would not be completely unusual. Some even joke that this might be the ‘major first' the team was referring to (please don't).
In fact, gamescom Opening Night Live is being billed as the thing to watch ahead of the weekend. It will feature new game announcements, world premieres and trailer/gameplay reveals, according to the official gamescom website.
The headline show will feature 38 games from 18 different publishers, 'primarily focused on updates from announced titles',
Gamescom Opening Night Live is scheduled to begin at 20:00 South Africa time on 27 August 2020 (that's 11:00 PT / 14:00 ET /19:00 BST in other timezones).

If Simmers get no joy on the first night, there is also a Future Games Show scheduled for 28 August in an hour later time slot. This show will, according to the programme, feature 'announcements, updates, reveals and more'.
You can follow the events at gamescom on their official YouTube channel.
There are always times when playing The Sims 4 when you need a certain item but can't access it because its behind a wall. Thankfully, there are ways to unlock all items in the game to really create a home you love.
There are actually three categories or locked items in The Sims 4. The first, is a bunch of items that your sims may use at random times (i.e., plates, cups, seeds, etc).
The second, is a bunch of items that are around the worlds (i.e., decorative cars, fences, boats, statues, plants). The third, is a bunch of items that are locked unless you finish a certain part of the game (i.e., career reward items).
Buy Debug Items
These hidden objects are more household based than the live edit cheat is, with things like pots and pans, seeds and plants and so much more. There are hundreds of items to be unlocked using these cheats.
To be able to use the buy debug cheat you first need to enable cheats by opening up the cheat box by hitting ctrl + shift + c and then typing in testingcheats true and hitting enter.
Then you want to type in bb.showhiddenobjects and hit enter. Now when you enter build mode you can search debug in the search bar and find all of the hidden objects in the game to add to your home.
It is important to note that if you decorate with things like plates or pots and pans, people may clean them up while tidying the house.
Live Edit Items
Sims Life Games online, free
Around the time that The Sims 4: Island Living was released we got a new items cheat that allows you to find a ton of the items that are located around the world. These are the live edit items and are things like trees, boats, fences, and other weird things you sometimes see off in the distance.
To use this cheat you first need to enable cheats by hitting ctrl + shift + c on your keyboard and typing in testingcheats true to the cheat box and then hitting enter to enable cheats.
Then, you'll type in bb.showliveeditobjects and hit enter.
When you enter build mode you can search the word debug and a ton of these items will appear for you to scour through.
Gameplay Unlocks Items
There are a ton of items in the game that are locked behind a wall but you can still see them in the build catalog. These items are unlockable through completing tasks like getting to a certain level of a career, or by using the gameplay unlocks cheat.
The Sims Free Online Game
To use this cheat you need to first have the cheats enabled by hitting ctrl + shift + c on your keyboard and typing testingcheats true into the cheat box and hitting enter.
Then you'll want to use one of the longest and weirdest cheats in the game which is bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement and hitting enter. Then, when you go into the build mode catalog you'll be able to see all of the different things that are purchasable for your home.
