The Sims 4 gets Star Wars expansion pack in September - but not everyone's happy
The Journey to Batuu is coming on 8th September allowing players to visit Galaxy's Edge.
Another expansion pack is coming to EA's The Sims 4, but this time it's a little different - it's Star Wars themed.
The Journey to Batuu expansions was revealed in a Gamescon trailer in a virtual-only event.
The expansion pack is out 8th September and brings new characters, items and environments.
As expected with Star Wars there are droids, lightsabers and aliens. The trailer also shows the Millennium Falcon, Rey using the force and stormtroopers.
The pack is inspired by Walt Disney World's Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge theme park land.
EA said in Journey to Batuu "players will leave their homes to travel to the planet of Batuu where they'll have to make a choice on which faction to work with, as the actions their Sims take will lead to control of the Black Spire Outpost."
You choose to support Rey and Vi Moradi as part of the Resistance or join the First Order under Kylo Ren.
There will be missions to increase reputation, unlock artifacts and clothing. You can also customise droids and create a lightsaber.
You can also take back items to your home.
