Consoles: "Selling DLC that requires DLC is a no no"
Also consoles: "Let's keep allowing false advertising, underaged gambling with undisclosed odds and force our players to pay subscriptions to play multi-players"
Anyway, I'm happy we may be getting it this year! I've been wanting it for so long 😭
Apparently they are dropping this pack today. Interesting enough Sony/Microsoft seem to have forbid this pack from being sold as a standalone product, the blog post on EA’s website details how you must own both Sims 4 and the Cats and Dogs EP to purchase this and it’s only available in a bundle with the EP.

Can't get MFP on XBox because I don't have enough money to get the whole bundle (even though I already own the EP)? What am I doing wrong?
The blog post says XBO players should see the price of the EP subtracted from the bundle price if they own it. Not sure how exactly that’s supposed to work but I assume the EP price is subtracted when you add it to your cart or when you choose to checkout.
Open your xbox store again it took awhile for it to pop up separate for me @kusurusu
XBO does not have a stand-alone option like PS4. The blog says that players who own the EP will be credited that price leaving the $10 excess as their total. PS4 must not allow that type of transaction; so on their store it’s standalone but only if you own the EP. Otherwise it’s only purchasable in the bundle.
MFP: no option to buy, redeem code only
Bundle: refuses to proceed unless I got enough money to buy whole bundle
Or should I open store via console?
edit: no discount on store/buy/checkout
ETA: In searching “Sims 4” on XBO the C&D + MFP was the very last result. I do own the EP on XBO so it’s listed as on sale 75% off ($9.99). Check to make sure the EP is registered to the account you are using.
Some feedback for EA.. The bundle is $39.99 and the C&D EP is also listed at $39.99. Should probably remove the EP since you’ll get the MFP content as well at the exact same price in the bundle.
Sounds like a Microsoft issue. Nothing he can do for you, or any EA person right now. Do a full power cycle on your XBO (hold the power button until the unit completely turns off wait 30 seconds then turn it on again) and try again would be my best advice. As soon as I located the bundle it was showing the $9.99 price. I think these issues are probably due to it rolling out just a few hours ago.

That is interesting, and shows just how controversial a DLC for a DLC is.
It's on the playstation store but it's only got overview no buy
On PS4 (according to the blog) you must own the EP to buy it, otherwise it’s only available in the bundle pack.

I did not have that issue so I don’t know. I’d suggest contacting MS customer support for help.

and I don't think restarding console would help since I just booted it
