The Sims 4 Enchanted by Nature Expansion Pack release date and how to earn its bonus items

EA is launching a new Sims Expansion Pack that will allow you to live your life as the fairy you were always meant to be.

Despite its charm and iconic status, The Sims has not been immune to controversy. The main criticism of the franchise is its propensity to hide its best content behind numerous expansions and Stuff Packs, as players clamoured for improved babies and careers, EA seized the opportunity to keep The Sims 4 alive and tucked them behind additional purchases. The game is now free-to-play, with these expansions remaining as optional extras, but its reputation took a bit of a hit.

However, this doesn't mean the game isn't still going strong. The Enchanted By Nature Expansion Pack is set to sprinkle a bit of fairy dust and offer a new opportunity to become the ultimate plant parent. It'll provide you with the chance to transform into an actual fairy with new aspiration paths, wings, glowing tattoos and the option to bring Gnomes to life. It's a deeper dive into the fantasy aspect of the game, and fans who derive pleasure from marrying Death and playing the role of a benevolent, vengeful god that traps players in swimming pools are going to thoroughly enjoy it.

It's a golden opportunity for players to dive into a new fantasy, despite it being a jam-packed week for game releases – the latest Tony Hawk remakes arrive the day after, along with the start of Marvel Rivals Season 3, and PC gamers will be gearing up for the Prologue Go Wayback July playtest due the following week.

It might seem a tad challenging to fit everything in, but for those devoted to The Sims, there's actually a reward in store if you're keen to grab the Enchanted by Nature Expansion Pack close to its release date.

We must hold our horses until its release date before we can get too thrilled, though. So when is the Sims 4 Enchanted by Nature Expansion Pack release date? Here's what you need to know.
