Sims are now welcome in Windenburg, the new world available in the second expansion to The Sims 4 entitled “Get Together.” Windenburg, the new Club feature, new skills, and a wealth of new objects are all a part of the expansion. After a slight delay, “Get Together” is finally available to play, and players can dive in right now by creating or joining Clubs, having a party just about anywhere, or gathering around a bonfire.
The Sims 4 developers decided to accompany the launch of “Get Together” with a new trailer where Sims sing about the new world and what players can expect from the expansion. The focus of the video seems to be on the new world of Windenburg with an emphasis on how Sims can interact with each other, thanks to the expansion. As The Sims 4 official Twitter account notes, the expansion is available now in North America. It is expected to release globally throughout the week.
Although the video shows plenty of Sims singing in English, rest assured that the characters will still speak Simlish in the game. The video highlights many of the details players are familiar with in “Get Together” including dancing, group activities, night life, and more. For instance, Sims are seen skinny dipping at a new pool venue lot, and some are seen raising the new DJ skill at the local club. Players can preview some of the new clothes, accessories, and building options in the trailer as well, but a full preview of all the items and objects in the expansion can be found on the official game website.
The expansion adds the European-inspired neighborhoods of Windenburg with a number of Tudor Modern home perfect for any Sim. “Get Together” also includes walls, floors, and other objects perfect for players to create their own Windenburg homes. A plethora of new clothes, hairstyles, furniture, and much more are also added to The Sims 4 with “Get Together.”
New gameplay is also a paramount part of the expansion. Players can join or create Clubs in “Get Together” that lets them set rules for their group of gardeners, video game enthusiasts, or any other type of Club they can imagine. While in a Club, a Sim will try to adhere to the Club’s encouraged behavior rather than their own traits giving them a chance to be someone a little different. Not to mention, completing activities while in a Club will reward Club Points that can be spent on Club Perks. For example, players earn enough points to buy vibes; emotions that atomically initiate when joining up with Club members.
Expansion content is not the only new and shiny stuff to play with in The Sims 4 this month. The holiday update that preceded the expansion’s release also added a few new objects to the free “Holiday Celebration Pack.” As the Inquisitr reported, a new lighted tree, snowflake decals, decorative presents, and more were added to the pack. Players that previously downloaded the “Holiday Celebration Pack” will see the new items automatically. Players that have yet to download it can do so via Origin to obtain all of its contents for free.
“Get Together” joins “Get to Work” as the second expansion to The Sims 4. The base game is required to play the expansion, of course. New players intrigued by the whimsy of Windenburg can pick up the base game on sale right now, though. The Sims 4is just $35.99 via Originright now, while the expansion is $39.99. Many of The Sims 4stuff, game, and expansion packs do go on sale from time to time.
