The Sims 4 will soon be giving away its Blooming Rooms Kit, Electronic Arts has revealed. But unlike some of the most recent The Sims 4 freebies, this one may not be available across all platforms.

Aside from its 15 expansions, EA's hit life sim has also received more than 60 minor DLC packs since its 2014 release. Blooming Rooms Kit is one of the more recent such add-ons, having debuted in November 2021. Boasting two dozen cute furniture items and plants, this pack has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the most versatile The Sims 4 build kits that is useful in pretty much any setting in need of some greenery.

EA has now confirmed that the Blooming Rooms Kit DLC will soon be given away to players for free. The announcement was made without much fanfare, having been tucked away into an unrelated blog post about the macOS version of the EA app finally being on the horizon. Near the very end of that article is a casual confirmation that fans will soon have the opportunity to claim The Sims 4 Blooming Rooms Kit free of charge. The promo is planned to debut «in the coming weeks,» with that wording pointing to it going live sometime in April.

While The Sims 4 freebies are normally platform-agnostic, the publisher has so far only confirmed that this offer will be available to EA app users across PC and Mac. The app itself doesn't have a console port, making it unclear whether the promo will be extended to PlayStation and Xbox users. In the meantime, players across all platforms have a few more weeks to claim The Sims 4 Backyard Stuff DLC free of charge. The Microsoft Store version of that offer suggests it's set to expire on April 13, which is likely the earliest date when the Blooming Rooms Kit giveaway will begin, as EA has never given away two of the game's add-ons at the same time over the past decade.

The Blooming Rooms Kit DLC is normally priced at $4.99 / €4.99. Its PC version hasn't been discounted once since its late 2021 debut, although EA Play subscribers can always grab it at 10% off as one of their membership benefits. Most of the recent The Sims 4 freebies have been available to claim for about a month each, so that will presumably be the case this time around as well.

The Blooming Rooms Kit add-on includes 24 items, ranging from furniture to foliage. Since most locations can use a little greenery, the pack has seen a lot of community use since its release. Just a few weeks back, one dedicated player leveraged this DLC and a few other build kits to create an adorable mermaid apartment building in The Sims 4.

The Sims 4 is the latest entry in EA's iconic social simulation series. Like its predecessors, The Sims 4 lets players create characters known as Sims, with their appearance, dress sense, and
