Electronic Arts and Maxis have announced that a new expansion is on its way for The Sims 4, with the Businesses & Hobbies Pack arriving on March 7. Check out the reveal trailer for it below.

There are three big additions within, two fall into the Hobbies group and the other is more Business aligned. Here are the details for the two hobbies.

Make Your Mark

Showcase who you truly are with the new Tattooing skill! With the Tattooing skill you can have your Sim give other Sims pre-made, custom or dedicated tattoos. Body art is all about freedom of expression and celebrating your body in your own way. To make this experience unique and entirely your own, Sims can create an infinite amount of custom tattoos in Tattoo Paint Mode. Like real artists, you’ll be able to share your custom designs with other Simmers using the Gallery, or browse for other Tattoos to use in your experience. 

As Sims level up their Tattooing skill, they can also unlock more stamps and stencils, and increase the odds of excellent results. Tattoos (even ones from previous packs) can now be layered, allowing for multiple tattoos to be placed on the same body part. 

Mold and Mend Your Future

Pottery allows Sims to express their crafty side in new ways. Elevate your Pottery skill with the Pottery Wheel to make decorative and functional pieces, including tea sets, planters of all sizes for our Simmers with a green thumb, incense burners to set an ambiance and so much more. 

Once the pieces have been created on the Pottery Wheel, players have the option to glaze (there are plenty of colours to choose from) their finished pottery and put it in the Pottery Kiln or leave their pottery unglazed. At higher levels of the Pottery skill, Sims can use the Japanese art of Kintsugi to create beautiful pieces from broken ceramics. 

The final objects can be gifted or sold at a small business using the new retail surfaces or used to decorate your lot. 

For those seeking more of a challenge, the new business additions will give you that. There are many ways to grow your own business, you can read the details here. But the big addition for them is all that a number of the previous expansions, game packs and stuff packs all have business options already, the list of them is:

• Cats and Dogs Expansion Pack: Sims who love and adore their four legged friends can open pet cafés. 

• Get Together Expansion Pack: Sims who are down to dance until the sun rises can create dance clubs and Sims who game until the wee hours of the morning can open arcades for like minded gamers. 

• City Living Expansion Pack - Sing your heart out in your favorite city at your very own karaoke bar fitted out with your favorite Simlish tunes. 

• Get Famous Expansion Pack - Did someone say paparazzi? Open an acting school where you teach celebrities how to play the part!  

• Spa Day Game Pack - Fancy a massage, facial or meditative yoga retreat? Say namaste to all the Sims who choose to relax with you at your spa! 

• Laundry Day Stuff Pack - Scrub a dub dub in your very own tub! Collect Simoleons as Sims wash their clothes at your laundromat! 

• Bowling Night Stuff Pack - Sims who are competitive can open their very own bowling alleys. Get a strike or a spare on a fun night out with friends. 

The expansion is set to release on March 7 for all platforms where The Sims 4 is located.
