Description

The Sims 4 High School Years Expansion Pack for PC is the 12th expansion pack for the Sims 4 game, and something of a surprise given that Sims 5 is well under way to release. However, the developers have given fans what might be a last blast for the Sims 4 game, in this high school expansion pack.

About the Game


As well as allowing access to high school where you can get to grips with your inner teen and experience your school days once more, albeit in the personas of your sims, this expansion pack introduces a new area, called Copperdale. You will attend classes in person, get to know your teachers, hang out in the cafeteria and even decorate your locker. Your most treasured moments might happen while loitering around with your friends after school.

As well as this, you can dance the night away at prom and celebrate your graduation ceremony (as long as you keep up with your schoolwork that is!) But high school is a time of self-discovery as well as one of study: dig deep to find the confidence to ask out your crush or dare to skip class just don’t let the principal catch you!

Teen Sims, like their real life counterparts, will explore their own likes and dislikes and have new opportunities to cause mischief. Pranks and sneaking out after dark can have consequences as well as giving you teen cred and extra coolness, so be careful you don’t get caught.

The clothing ranges and interactions and other items are brilliantly nostalgic and clever. Just as with a real high school student, you can choose fashions ranging from kawaii to cottage core to preppy to vaporwave to craft your teens exactly the way you want them. Teen Sims can gain a social media following and become a ‘Simfluencer’ earning money by selling outfits and designs that they come up with in their bedrooms.
As in real life, Sim teens spend a lot of time in their bedrooms which are fully customisable and more interactive than ever before. Your Sim teen can use a laptop, read a book in bed or even have a pillow fight with a friend or sibling!

The town of Copperdale features eleven new lots, including starter homes, the principal’s house and others, as well as a park, library, the high school, of course, complete with auditorium, and a lakeside rental place for those luscious teen summer weekends. There is also a combination boba tea shop and thrift shop, called ThrifTea. By the lake is Plumbsite Pier – a sort of promenade with ice cream vendors and water attractions.

As with other areas in Sims 4, there is a lot that cannot be accessed by the Sims, seemingly just there for show, but there is so much to see and do that you aren’t really going to miss accessing the whole football stadium, for example. At school, you can decorate your locker to suit your taste, gossip in the school cafeteria and get into trouble by playing pranks.

Prom is – as ever – a big deal when you’re in high school, and promposal options make the experience a fun and immersive one, as well as making signs for the event and voting for Prom King and Queen.

The Nitty Gritty


Classes are largely rote, with no real way to bunk out of class – but this isn’t a problem as your Sims gain skills simply by sitting in class so it is no hardship. After lessons, you head off to the things that make school fun: clubs and sports, with plenty on offer, ranging from chess or computer club to cheerleading and football, with much more.

The kids have an app that they prefer – much like Snapchat, TikTok, Kik and the like – and your Social Bunny app allows your Sims to pretty much do what you do on social media: like friends’ posts, post quirky anecdotes and send DMs for both friendship and romance.

Traits, as with all Sims games, are essential, and teens can be one of three new elements: Overachiever, Socially Awkward or a Party Animal all of which can help your Sim teen to find their path through high school

What Cool Things Can My Teen Sim Have?


Along with the expansion pack come a bunch of new things for you to acquire, customise and place – or just play with or on, as desired! These include:
  • Buildings/ Attractions: a haunted house; a Ferris wheel; a photo booth; a tunnel of love

  • Desirable Objects: an American football to carry and look cool and like the jock you wish you’d really been; a buffet table for daily feasts; podium to make speeches and run for class President

  • Fixtures/ Fittings: a water/ drinks fountain; customisable lockers; toilet stalls; vending machines

  • Other: jot notes down on a whiteboard; sneak out of the ‘sneak-out window’ to meet up with your buddies

    • The Sims 4 High School Years Expansion Pack for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

    Best purchase ever!!! I really loved this EP ❤️❤️ Everything is perfect, the lots, the gameplay, and new venues, they are really lovely. I'm enjoying building and playing with my teen sims. 100% suggested!!!
    i was extremely disappointed with this when i installed it into the game. i was in build and buy and placing different beds and they immediately kept disappearing even items from other packs . looking into this it is happening to others downloading from this website. now i cant play with this pack with out it glitching out my whole game .i cant uninstall and re buy so i have no clue what to do
    Love this pack, it comes with so many items that really convey that teen style. Love that there is new things to do like social media and being a streamer. Very satisfied with the pack I selected to buy.
    YES, ON SALE.

    The High School Years expansion pack contains all the bare minimum and base features for a high school expansion. It feels very lacking in gameplay! If we exclude CAS, Build/buy, and the world, the gameplay just doesn't seem enough to be an expansion pack. The pack being named "High School Years" itself is a little silly as high school is probably the least fun element of the pack. It should've been called "Teenage Years" or "Teenhood", idk. EA promotes this pack as a fun and immersive experience however it's incredibly boring and repetitive watching your Sim do the same animations over and over. I get its high school which doesnt mean it should be the most fun experience ever, but you literally can't do anything but attend class with a few pop ups showing up but nothing actually happening, eat lunch, and idk, use the bathroom? Also, the premade high school is so bland and has nothing and you can't even move the high school unless u use a mod. Just not super exciting and again, I recommend it on EA sale or cheaper on here!
    • Amazing Build/buy & cas, really fit theme!
    • More things for teens to do
    • Pier attractions, thrift stores, boba tea, ice cream
    • Boring high school experience
    • Prom & final exams are every single week and it gets annoying
    • Pretty generic world and school system is not in depth

    I used this yesterday and today after seeing a youtuber advertise it and seen others say it was legit so I bought a pack and was amazed! Wish I knew about it sooner I could’ve saved so much money buying sims packs.
    • Really affordable
    • Sometimes to codes are hard to read
    A very cute expansion and despite all of the glitches, is still worth buying because of how much content there actually is
    • Live High School
    • Cool Teen Events
    • Family Gameplay & Realistic Teen activities
    • THE HIGH SCHOOL IS BROKEN AND LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE TRAILER
    • VERY glitchy and buggy
    I play sims4 when I was 7 and 4
    Love this site!! Soo happy I found it I'm on my 2nd purchase and def will continue to grab more games. Amazing prices and super smooth checkout! I love the sims and now I can get all the expansion packs at a better cost for my pockets.
    • Easy to navigate
    • None
    i was really excited to get this game but after playing it, it made all my saves barely playable. it takes so long to switch from sim to sim and they always stand around doing nothing. don't buy this, I haven't even entered the high school yet and it broke my new game
    • good addons
    • puberty
    • lags all your saves
    • sims stand around doing nothing
    we can finally play high school yearsss, i first had the the high school MOD installed and i had alot of trouble with updating the mod, so i could play high school anymore. but now i can finally play it without trouble, and i have so much fun playing it.

    the only thing is when you have a high school years bed in your house, then sometimes it can break your game if you have mods installed. but overall, i love it. =P
    • love the game
    • the beds are ruining mods
    I just bought this game and I feel really frustrated cuz my sims won't do anything I tell them my game is completely broken and very unplayable. EA needs to do better than this. I tell my sims to do their homework an they wont move they just stand there embarrassed of their siblings.
    With all the bugs and not many fixes it feels like this was just a cash grab. I feel like we don't even have game play during classes, not enough activities to go around, not enough clubs not even enough consequences for doing bad things or good things. I want to see my teens INTERACT with teachers, students and parents like real life.
    • Build-Buy
    • CAS
    • Activities
    • Gameplay

    • Consequences
    i bought this the day before it was released and it works perfectly. i got the bonus items (chair and pc) as well!! i’m not really sure why some people didn’t get the bonus items but maybe it’s a glitch.
