We already have horses programmed in the game but I have found out The Sims 4 team is teasing horses on tiktok! When someone asks about horses they respond with eye and horse emoji instead of saying nothing like they usually do! I think that means they are teasing new roadmap and we will get horses next season! (late spring/early summer?)

I really hope it's this! Because why would they suddenly respond to such questions/demands when they have never answered them unless they wanted to tease?
Well they could make them at least rideable in neighborhoods like bikes. Some of the larger park lots and the surroundings would be a good place to ride them, like the park in willow creek. I guess they could make them like bikes where they go in your inventory temporarily when you change lots.
Would be lovely if they added insects like caterpillars and butterflies to hatch or ladybugs children could try to catch, or snails to catch and sing to. Big hairy tarantulas and bearded dragons would be fun too, especially if we had to buy or catch cockroaches, crickets, or worms to feed them.
I don't think horses will be Expansion pack.Much as I love horses and wait for them in TS4, hoping they would be developed, horses might be a bit too little for whole EP. They should have been a part of cats&dogs or cottage living at the first place. But maybe they would give us horses AND something else
if we didn't get more variety of pets in cats&dogs or my first pet, I don;t think we will. I am 99% parrots aren't coming because more and more people keep arguing birds aren't suited to be kept at houses and cages and Sims team is careful with these things
right, I hope they won't make horses an object like they did with cows and llamas
I never played with horses in the sims 3 so I wonder how they will work in sims 4. I hope they are not tied to a stable like cows and llamas. I think if they can access the same paths as bikes we should be able to ride around in the neighbourhood.
I honestly think they could come in an EP or a GP. But if they are part of an EP than there should be some other gameplay involved as well. With cats and dogs and farm animals already in the game, I don't know what that might be. Perhaps something hobbies or free time related?
I really really hope that if we get horses this year that the team will also include unicorns.
I wouldn't even mind them being confined to a stable as long as they're at home, but of c'horse, you should be able to go for a ride with them as well. Otherwise, what's the point? And please, don't make them disappear into a sim's inventory whenever they're not being used, that would be silly - yes, I realise it happens to cows and llamas, too, but those are basically objects that can't exist without a stable. I hope horses won't be. Didn't TS3 treat them more like family members anyway, similar to cats and dogs? Let's do that again.
Something wicked this way comes!
I don't use MCCC.
I find it suspiciously early to be teasing horses if we're hours away from a livestream revealing, presumably, something that's not horses. Maybe, when EA sent the memo to everyone what's next to tease, after the stream, someone got theirs early.
If I were EA, at this point, I would put something horse themed into the next EP, maybe an image on a t-shirt or something, so when we get it we'll be like "Oh, man. No real horses." Then later when they do reveal the next EP then they'd surprise us all.
With real horses in the game, I'd be worried they'd have a glitch where if you were riding them when you changed lots, the horse would be left behind while you travel. I really hope not, but Sims 4 is known for it's glitches.
I kinda do hope we get a western themed pack, as others have suggested, with lots of old wooden furniture, and one of those swinging doors like they have in the movies. And I hope that the dog on the world concept art I mentioned above is a hint that they've remembered they actually have that pack when they are designing this one. I love cross-pack compatible features.
My gosh, I want a pocket horse. That would make hauling out to ride so much more easier. I wouldn't have to hook up the trailer then. Just pop the pony in a pocket and off we go.
Needless to say, I want horses in Sims 4 with a burning passion. My historical saves demand it, as does my simself. I sadly lost my elderly mare this last year (it's only been a month and I miss her terribly
I really want horses. I skipped TS3 so not sure how they worked, but I'd like to see them treated like bicycles in how they work and then have a new lot type as some form of equestrian center where you could do courses, jumps, lessons, etc..
It would work well as a game pack I think, a new world would be needed really (a South American one would work well I think), plus new lot type and new skill (a rabbit hole career/school club could also fit too).
I really hope they are coming. But if they are not on the road map I hope they stop teasing like this as this is getting all our hopes up and I really hope it isn't just to be disappointed again.
Edit: Also some more horse items in the new EP trailer. Can't be a coincidence right?
