Peel back the veil:
Sims can collect Bucket List goals and earn rewards for completing them – but don’t worry if they can’t! If a Sim dies with Unfinished Business they can still live(?) their dreams as a Ghost, and still earn rewards. The ultimate reward for completing Bucket Lists and Unfinished Business is Rebirth.
For Sims who want to live life on the dark side there are two new careers; an off-screen Mortician career and an active Reaper career which will let you go work for Grim at his secret office as well as travel to reap souls.
There’s a lot of eerie fun to get into off the clock as well. Explore Crypts, build your Thanatlogy skill, collect tarot cards, and even adopt a Pet Crow.
Death affects different Sims in different ways. Create fully custom Grieving Rituals and decorate Caskets and Gravesites according to the wishes of the departed Sim or their loved ones. There are 4 types of grief which Sims may experience depending on their personalities and their relationship to the deceased.
Sims can also prepare for their own deaths in life by creating Wills and deciding who to pass on Heirlooms, assets, and children should they pass away.
The journey doesn’t end with death. Sims can continue on as Ghosts and even learn new supernatural powers. Ghosts who are helpful while haunting will earn Goodwill essence while Ghosts who think it’s fun to be frightening will earn Fear essence. Both essences can be sold for Simoleans.
Embrace the Macabre (one of 3 new traits!) in Life & Death.
Available October 31 at 10AM PT on EA App PC/Mac, Steam, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4, and PlayStation®5. Pre-order now:
