Description

Peel back the veil to uncover the secret to richer Sim lives and beyond in The Sims 4 Life & Death Expansion Pack*. Achieve your dreams in life by ticking items off your Bucket List or pursue them as a Ghost with Unfinished Business. There is a ghastly new world to haunt, a career that’ll bring you closer to Grim, Wills to write, Crypts to explore, and even ghostly skills to master. There are no real endings — only transitions — as you move between life, afterlife, and even rebirth.

KEY FEATURES:
  • An Endless Journey — Build your Bucket List by collecting goals throughout your Sim’s life, starting as a Young Adult. Items will appear on your list based on your Sim’s traits and family relations, and you can also choose your own. Removing items is possible, but completing them yields powerful rewards. If a Sim’s life ends with items still on their list, they can devote their afterlife to completing their Unfinished Business. The ultimate reward for experiencing everything on their list is the option to be Reborn, though you can still choose to Move On or remain on this plane as a Ghost.

  • A Ghastly, Gorgeous Life — Make death your life’s work with a career of reaping souls, helping Ghosts, dispersing hauntings, and more as a member of Grim’s team. Or, you could become a Mortician and deal with death more from the perspective of the living. Outside of work, you might spend your days exploring Crypts and building your Thanatology skill for the new Ghost Historian Aspiration. These things — among other dark diversions like bonding with your Pet Crow (careful, provoking it could be deadly) or collecting and reading the lost Tarot Cards of Lady Ravendancer Goth — will have a special appeal to Sims who are Macabre, one of 3 new traits.

  • Goodbye (For Now) — Different Sims will grieve in different ways. There are 4 types that will tie in with both Sims’ personalities and their relationships with the deceased. Grieving Rituals are customizable and unscripted, allowing you to hold whatever type of event (or events) fits your story. In life, Sims can create Wills which can be used to pass down Heirlooms, assign guardians for surviving dependents, distribute their Simoleons, and more. Sims can honor the departed with a memorial display featuring their portrait and by interring their urns in Crypts or with Custom Caskets and Gravesites.

  • Friendly or Fiendish? — Linger on as a Ghost, and spend your afterlife helping or terrorizing the living. Ghosts will grow in their abilities as they do everything from assisting with household chores to levitating living Sims and hanging them upside down (fun AND profitable — they may drop Simoleons!). Their interactions with the living can earn them Fear or Goodwill essences, which can both be sold for Simoleons. There’s a lot to do after death; Ghosts can even pair up for a special, spectral Woohoo.

  • A Town Worth Haunting — The veil between life and death is thin in Ravenwood, a 3-neighborhood town. Visit the countryside and perhaps take a swim by the mysterious face in the cliffs. Or, head into the village where you’ll find some odd goods for purchase near the old Specter cemetery, a haunted house to brave, or a festival to attend. The residents of these first 2 neighborhoods are (mostly) alive, but it’s Ghosts who will feel most at home in the third, where you’ll find 2 more festivals and a spectral support group. Living Sims can use its Baleful Bog to have an out-of-body experience and try their hands at being temporary Ghosts. Well, it’s usually temporary. Don’t overdo it.

For the first time in 10 years, it actually feels like we are getting an Expansion Pack worth of content.
  • Active Career
  • New Bucket List & Ghost Power Tree
  • Rebirth
  • Early Purchase Incentives
I don't like the new Life and death pack. The world is too similar to already existing worlds and the same goes for the new build / buy objects, as many objects especially furniture and wall papers etc are already there and just have been updated and slightly renewed. There are some objects that are new and they are ok but not special. Nothing that has a WOW factor.

Overall for the gameplay it's certainly something interesting and fun to play for Gameplayers.

But EA worked really hard and I give them a lot of credit for that.

I would not spend money on this pack as it is not for my taste. To bland.

I hope in 2025 EA creates a pack again that is worth the money.
  • To bland and dull
It is definitely more thought through then other sims expation pack and makes ghost finally a cool occult to play. It also adds some decent lots too.
  • Makes ghosts feel like an actual ocult
  • Adds cool new careers
  • You have to message them to get the macabre mementos that should come with it
Correction to my last comment - this does actually come with pre-order bonus, it's just available in a seperate code. I message support and they got it over to me in like 2 minutes flat. Very efficient and super helpful :)

Per usual, something is not working.

Whenever I try to travel to the new world, the game shows me a white screen with no chance to cancel. All I can do is go back to the Main Menue
  • gameplay
  • all the glitches :)))))))
Must be one of the best packs that they have made for the sims4.
  • great gameplay
  • lots to explore even though not that many lots
  • small world
I love the new features. I‘m having a lot fun with it.
One of the better expansion packs
Will I ever give a Sims 4 EP a good rating? I'll never know, because, yet again, another lackluster EP from EA that's not fun at all. It's aesthetically pleasing but that's all there is to it.

The new "gameplay" system is just a bunch of task lists. Want tarot cards? Task list. Want to join a group? Task last. Wanna hold a funeral? Task list. The bucket list? Task list. The active Reaper career? Task list. Help the ghost lady? Task list that only benefits one singular sim in the household. Everyone has to do it if they want the benefits too.

The funerals also function the same way as the My Wedding Stories events, meaning they don't work as they're intended to. I should have expected as such because the live stream purposely omitted showing the funeral function.

You can write wills and have heirlooms passed down through your family- oh but you can't live in the same household, it has to be separate households to work. Ghosts also have a new skill tree that fleshes them out way more than the base game... and it's ridiculous this is locked behind a $40 asking price from EA.

I can tell there was love put into this pack because the world is beautiful and the CAS and Build/Buy is lovely. But that is seriously it. It's a lackluster game pack of an "expansion". Do yourself a favor and buy it on sale or through sites like Instant Gaming.
  • CAS, Build/Buy, and World is beautiful
  • Ghosts have more of a purpose
  • Call backs to Sims from TS2
  • Gameplay is a ton of micromanagement and task lists
  • Can't give inheritance or heirlooms to Sims in the same household
Must have DLC for the sims 4. Probably going to be my favorite expansion. Was a bit skeptical about buying on this site but turned out great. Would use again.
