Subscribe to our newsletter Sims 4 players who want more stuff in their game will soon be able to “discover, purchase, and play” new content via the Sims 4 Marketplace, an “in-game destination” unveiled by EA today. And for those who prefer to make (and sell) that content, it also announced the Sims Maker Program, which will enable approved content creators to publish their work directly to the Sims 4 Marketplace, and earn money for their work.The new Marketplace “is fully integrated into The Sims 4,” EA said, enabling players to browse and purchase Maker Packs—”a curated collection of Create a Sim and/or Build/Buy items created by a Maker”—and other content using Moola, a new virtual currency. Creators will set the cost of each Maker Pack, and will earn 30% of their Maker Pack sales—so if someone purchases the Snazzy Living Room pack for 400 Moola, for instance, the creator will earn $1.20. Introducing The Sims 4 Marketplace & The Maker Program – YouTube Watch On This new program will not replace free content: EA said content creators can continue to offer their work for free on other platforms, under the terms of its standard policy, although content available elsewhere cannot be sold through the Marketplace. Standard Sims 4 content, like expansions, Game Packs, and Stuff Packs, will also still be available for purchase through regular channels using real money.
