New Developments from The Sims Team
The Sims Team continues to surprise fans with fresh content, and they’ve recently unveiled the Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy Expansion Pack through an exclusive Bundle.
Introducing the “Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy Grand Bundle”
Dubbed the “Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy Grand Bundle“, this offering not only features the upcoming Expansion Pack but also includes exclusive Treasures Digital content and two Kits: Silver Screen Style and Tea Time Solarium.
A Trend in Expansion Pack Releases
The trend began with the release of The Sims 4 Cottage Living, where players were incentivized to purchase the Expansion Pack within a limited time to receive an exclusive set of items. This strategy has been maintained, now applied to the Royalty & Legacy with the Regal Treasures Digital Content, featuring items like a Crown of Leaves and Sparkles.
Key Reseller Websites and Their Impact
In recent years, many players have turned to key reseller websites for their Sims 4 purchases due to lower prices that often match or undercut official offers. While it’s unclear how much profit EA and Maxis see from these transactions, purchasing through official platforms typically ensures complete profit for them.
Drawbacks of Using Key Resellers
Although some players report no issues with codes from key resellers, there are distinct disadvantages, such as lack of access to Bonus Digital Content for new Expansion Packs. Additionally, many Kits are not available through these reseller platforms.
The Value of Official Purchases
EA has enhanced the purchasing experience by offering exclusive bonus items. For the new Royalty & Legacy Grand Bundle, players can enjoy two additional Kits alongside the Expansion Pack for the price of $39.99 USD. This is an appealing offer compared to purchasing separately from key resellers.
The Future of Sims 4 Bundles
While some platforms, like Instant-Gaming, have managed to offer discounts on the Bundle, it remains to be seen if EA and Maxis can prevent key resellers from accessing these exclusive deals. As the release date approaches, it’s essential for fans to weigh the benefits of official purchases against potentially cheaper options.
