What Sims 4 Packs Are Included with EA Play?

As a passionate Sims gamer and content creator, I get asked this question a lot – what exactly do you get with an EA Play subscription when it comes to The Sims 4? Well, buckle up Simmers, because I‘ve got the complete breakdown for you right here!

The short answer:

• EA Play gets you The Sims 4 base game + the Get to Work Expansion Pack
• EA Play Pro gets you everything in EA Play, plus the Toddler Stuff Pack

But let‘s dig into the details…

Expansion Pack Perks – Get to Work

The Sims 4 Get to Work is the only Expansion Pack included standard with an EA Play subscription. This fan favorite EP opened up active careers for the very first time in franchise history!

Here‘s an overview of what Get to Work brings to the table:

• Interactive Doctor, Detective & Scientist Careers – Your Sims can save lives, solve mysteries, or create crazy inventions! I‘ve lost hours following my wacky scientists down the rabbit hole of experimentation.
• Retail & Bakery Businesses – Open up shop and design everything from menus to uniforms. Customers will come browse your shelves and make purchases! My best tip is to sell your Sim‘s homemade paintings or masterpieces for profit. 💰
• New Skills – Bake delicious confections with the Baking Skill, capture evidence with Photography, or tinker on gadgets using the Invention Skill!
• Aliens & Planets – This EP introduces aliens that can visit your Sims, get them pregnant (!) or even add an alien dimension to your Sim using the satellite Dish. Beam me up, Scotty! 👽

Overall the Get to Work EP adds over 125 new objects and unlocks tons of new interactions for your daily Sim life. You‘ll get hours of entertainment from this pack alone!

Bonus Stuff – Toddler Time!

Exclusively for EA Play Pro members, you also get The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff pack included free with your subscription. I‘ve made tons of Sims 4 toddler CC & mods over the years, so this Toddler Stuff is right up my alley!

Here‘s what the Toddler Stuff Pack includes:

• Adorable toddler-specific furniture like cribs, playpens, potty training chairs, play mats and brightly colored toys
• Themed outfit sets for your mini Sims including destination adventure travel wear and costume dress up clothes
• New hairstyles designed just for toddlers including fun ponytails, braids, and silly mohawks
• Additional decorative kids objects like building blocks, growth charts and cute plushies

So while it‘s not a huge stuff pack, you do get some nice extras for your Sim toddlers with EA Play Pro!

Comparing Subscription Savings

Alright, let‘s break down the actual cost savings you can expect with an EA Play subscription compared to purchasing all this content outright.

Here‘s a comparison table:

With just one month of EA Play Pro at $14.99, you can save almost $90. Not too shabby! 💸

Over the course of a year, savings add up even quicker. So if you‘re looking for a cheap way to access The Sims 4 and extend gameplay, an EA Play subscription really pays for itself.

Recommended Purchases Outside of Subscription

Listen guys, I‘ll be straight with you – The Sims 4 is practically an investment game with how much content there is to buy these days!

While you score some nice perks with EA Play subscriptions, most expansion, game, and stuff packs need to be purchased separately. But I think it‘s worth every penny for the hundreds of hours of entertainment you get!

Here are a few of my top add-on recommendations after 8+ years playing Sims 4:

Expansion Packs

• Seasons
• City Living
• Get Famous

Game Packs

• Parenthood
• Dine Out
• StrangerVille

Stuff Packs

• Laundry Day
• Backyard
• Vintage Glamour

And for the ultimate customization, snag a few Kits like Bust the Dust, Courtyard Oasis, or Blooming Rooms – these mini packs add special thematic touches.

Browse during sales events or watch for bundle deals to get the best bang for your buck. An EA Play discount makes great packs like these more affordable!

The Final Verdict? Simscribe Now! 😄

Hopefully this guide gave you the full insider scoop on exactly what Sims 4 content is included free with EA Play vs EA Play Pro.

As both a dedicated Simmer and frugal fan on a budget, I think the subscription perks you get are 100% worth it – especially if you‘re a newcomer just diving into the wildly addictive world of The Sims 4 for the first time.

Between the base game, Get to Work expansion, and Toddler Stuff add-ons, an EA Play Pro subscription lets you fully test the waters before plunging headfirst into the entire The Sims 4 catalog.

But be warned – with ridiculously customizable Sims to play god over and almost endless storyline possibilities, you might just get hooked enough to become a lifer Simmer like me! 😉 Happy gaming!
