The Sims 4 will soon get what appears to be micro-content packs called Kits – with three of them seemingly ready to drop.
The February 2021 update for The Sims 4 not only added new content made by CC creators, it also added a load of clues about what we can expect from the game in the near future. The post-patch live stream also revealed that bunk beds will be coming to The Sims 4 base game in an update expected to be released in late March 2021.
In the latest game files for The Sims 4, a new type of pack for the game has appeared, called a “Kit”. Not only are there official descriptions on what these kits are going to be, there appears to be a set of 3 kits that will be released when EA decides to announce this.
The tuning files for the update revealed a reference to “dust” as noted by one modder on Twitter.
Let’s take a look the first details on the new kit packs that will be coming to The Sims 4:
