According to The Sims Community, on the official Sims website they leaked the icon of the next Game Pack.

It seems to me like a space/future theme, which uhm #nocomment.
Still hoping for it to be something else.

What do you think will be the next GP judging by this icon?

And would you be excited for a Space/future Themed GP? What can it add to the game?

    Woah! The icon looks cool. I think it sure does look like a space-themed pack. It gives off Star Wars-vibes for me - the rusty, more run-down space esthetics some of those films went with - by the looks of the rock-like thing and the building next to it. Maybe they've taken some inspiration from The Mandalorian? (As they did with popular media like Stranger Things, Moana, etc.) Makes me think of Star Wars land in Disney:

    This wasn't necessarily on my wishlist, but I was afraid we were going to get a reality tv-pack, so this is fine by me. The Build/Buy could be really good.

    Interesting icon interpretation - I saw the 'rocks' as 'skyscrapers/buildings' meaning all of them were buildings

    Meh. It would be nice if aliens were improved, yes, but I'd rather that came in a patch because I don't use them nearly enough to want to buy a pack for that. I'll probably never buy a sci-fi pack (again). I bought ITF for Sims 3 when I wanted to spice my game up, after a long time of swearing I never would, and I didn't like it at all. Then again, I felt the same about Late Night and Showtime, all of those were purchases I ended up regretting.

    Werewolves could be a possibility because the icon looks like it may be displaying a full moon (or 3!), but again, I'm dubious. I didn't like the werewolves in Sims 3 either. The only werewolves I like really are the kind that turn into actual wolves but I can't see that happening.

    I can't think of anything else the pack might be about, if this is genuine. The only themes I really want these days that would be worthy of a game pack are dragons or historical gameplay (medieval, ancient Rome or the English Regency era would be my top pics), and I doubt those things fit this icon.

    I see what you mean! I guess we'll find out soon. I hope the space theme is done in a less traditional manner and doesn't have a 'slick' futuristic style.

    I mean if it's space/futuristic/alien/supernatural related I'll definitely be skipping. I prefer realistic gameplay and I actually wish I could turn aliens off in my game. That being said I'd be happy for those that are into space/futuristic/aliens/supernatural gameplay.

    My guess is that the icon is a skyline of a city with nightsky. The circles could symbolise the day/night passing. And the pack could be a nightlife/Las Vegas/romance pack. That would not be a completely new theme, but at least a new combination. And it would make sense with that "elope" hint from the future cube.

    But still I kinda think that this is just a placeholder and not the real icon because compared to the other ones it looks so different in style, weird and unclear.

    It looks like a cow?

    Also, is it just me that's annoyed by the design of it compared to the other icons? Normally the blue (or green or pink) is the main part and the white is extras (like for RoM the book is blue but the stars are white) but for this one it's reversed.

    Ok, I see a house with a tower, some kind of canyon rock formation and three suns. The three suns would explain the alien's sunglasses like dark eyes. Can't wait to fly my own flying saucer. That is, if this is not another hoax. :joy:

    It's really on the Official Sims website though, so I doubt it's a hoax. But I agree with previous people saying that the style of the icon is really inconsistent with the rest of the GP icons.

    I guess it won't take that long anymore for them to officially announce the pack, so I guess we will have to wait and see.

    Oh my god guys it's still on the official site. They either are really not paying attention and haven't noticed or they are doing it on purpose. Here is a link you can see the icon in almost every image.

    People has been talking about a vegas/casino pack, I feel like the icon could be some kind of desert "skyline" and the big thing to the left is a casino sign, but I dunno! The other feel I get IF it were to be space related, don't we already have Strangeville with that aestetic?

    It looks like a city

    That post is old, did they update the pictures or was that icon always there?

    To be honest I feel like it's probably a placeholder icon as that icon is terrible. Nobody can tell what it's supposed to be judging by the fact that everyone has a completely different idea on it. For me it feels like a winter pack just because the area that looks like land is all white, maybe a house with a chimney to the left and a mountain to the right?

    Think you're getting muddled between the dates, the sims community post is from two hours ago. In America dates are written as MM/DD/YYYY so 08/02 is August 2nd aka today

    I was referring to this link which is from the EA site.

    Could the three suns actually be casino coins? hmm..
  • MareahMareah Posts: 792 Member
    Yeah, it is giving me sifi vibes, like it seems to hint at other planets. It was done before in ts4 so i am not sure if that guess is right since they said it is gonna be something new. Anyway, it is not a theme i like but kinda wondering what features/gameplay they gonna add.
  • crocobauracrocobaura Posts: 7,342 Member
    Could this be the winter world and the three suns actually be sun with sundogs on each side?

    Yeah looked like winter to me as well 😂 it reminds me of the mountain in Celeste (dunno it anyone knows that game). But I don't think it's a placeholder tbh.

    Snowballs, I like that.
  • IrishSimmer21IrishSimmer21 Posts: 464 Member
    I hope they give us info next month.
  • CladriahCladriah Posts: 69 Member
    It does not look like skyscrapers. It looks more like a house. It could be snow balls or the moon.

    Winter retreat or werewolves.
  • SuccySuccy Posts: 29 Member
    With all the drama going on these days around actual gambling in games with lootboxes, I'd be highly surprised if they were doing anything on that.

    Perhaps we all need to think a bit outside the box for this one.

    This is how I see it, interesting to see that other people interpret it a totally different way
    Hmm now i can see it as a winter themed pack, but i thought that one would be an ep so it didn't come to my mind at first sight.
