The highly popular life simulation video game, "The Sims 4, " has thus far received three major expansion packs, with the last one being the "City Living" DLC. Even though the last DLC was release just last month ago, die-hard fans of the game are now clamoring for a new one.
Given the high demand for new content, several reports have now surfaced online. These are all trying to predict the type of new content that will be coming out for the game.
Several reports have already laid out their different predictions, with some predicting either a pet or a seasons-oriented DLC. However, new reports are revealing that the next expansion pack may contain something more ominous that what was previously expected.
In hopes of finding new clues to the types of content that will be coming out soon for the game, users in the Sims Community website have been actively scouring through the game's software code. Sure enough, some users were reportedly able to find a specific string of code that indicates a new death type that reads "death by sunlight."
Sims within the game currently cannot really die from just sunlight exposure. It has then led some of the dataminers to believe that the code could be for a new vampire-type Sim, which could be playable in the next expansion.
Aside from the new death type, several strings of code were also discovered which points to a possible supernatural-themed expansion pack. Dataminers were able to find code that referred to gravestones, new Sim perks, a bat stuffed animal and even a new set of teeth for Sims.
Some fans were then quick to conclude that the game's developer may very well be planning a new Suipernatural Game pack. This is similar to the one added to the franchise's third installment.
The Sims 4 publisher EA and its developer Maxis have yet to officially respond to the DLC rumors. It means that nothing is yet confirmed for now. However, given the strong evidence found in the game's code, fans can at least expect vampires in future expansions.
