'''''The Sims 3: Ambitions''''' (Known as '''''The Sims 3: Hobbies and Professions''''' before the offical announcement), is an [[expansion pack]] for ''[[The Sims 3]]'' and is tentatively set to be released on June 4th, 2010. It appears to be a spiritual remake of ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business]]'', but with added activities. ''Ambitions'' also appears to be somewhat related to ''[[The Sims 2: Freetime]]'', as well.
 
[[Electronic Arts|EA Games]] confirmed ''Ambitions'' on March 4th, 2010.<ref>[http://www.thesims3.com/community/news.html?selMonth=2&selYear=2010#164255734 The next Expansion Pack has been announced!]</ref>

==Features==
*New creature: [[Servo]]. Servos have been seen in images and are built by Sims who have inventing skills.
 
*3 new [[skill]]s: Sculpting, inventing, and [[tattooing]]
**Sculpting: Sims can create sculptures out of ice, metal, clay and wood another posing Sim they are looking at.
**Inventing: There seems to be a wide variety of inventions. Servos are back, along with what appears to be a time machine in the trailer. Sims get scraps for inventions from scrapyards, a new type of lot, or by blowing things up.
**Tattooing is not only a skill, but a career.: Up to five layers of tattoos can be done. It is currently unknown whether the tattoos are stencils or freestyle.
 
* Control Sim’s actions and interactions while they’re on the job. It is rumored that [[rabbit hole]]s will disappear and all buildings can be seen.
**According to a member of The Sims 3 staff, Sims will even be able to manage their careers to an extent while you are not controlling them.<ref>[http://www.simprograms.com/category/sim-news/news-the-sims-3/ Simprograms- New Details on The Sims 3 Ambitions-Controlling multiple sims with multiple careers]</ref>▼
* On-the-job choices now change the town and affect other Sims as well. Players modify the town’s structure as an architect or set neighborhood fashions as a stylist.▼

*The town seen in the video trailer is a part of Riverview, just next to the bar, but it's possible that a new town can appear.
 
*New objects (ex. [[tattoo parlor]], [[Time Machine]], trampolines, motorbikes, and other unconfirmed things). {{fact}}
 
▲*According to a member of The Sims 3 staff, Sims will even be able to manage their careers to an extent while you are not controlling them:
==Notes==
"Several of the active jobs have been designed to allow your Sim to still progress while you’re busy with a different Sim elsewhere. For example, a Private Investigator can do low level police work or stakeouts while he isn’t working on an active case. The Firefighter is not always fighting fires so there are times where you can let him hang out and socialize at the Fire Station or work out when you aren’t controlling him. Both the Stylist and Architectural Design jobs will take you into a mode that will pause the game, but if you don’t want to do that you can still have your Sim research their field on the drafting table. Every career has responsibilities and its own active jobs. Each active job will require your full attention, but there are still options that allow your Sim to progress and level up while not controlling them. The most efficient progression will be with you controlling them but the balance is up to you. Similar to how World Adventures worked, it will be a challenge to control more than one Sim with multiple active jobs but we’ve offered many other avenues to help make it easier, and it can be done." <ref>[http://www.simprograms.com/category/sim-news/news-the-sims-3/ Simprograms- New Details on The Sims 3 Ambitions-Controlling multiple sims with multiple careers]</ref>
*While ''Ambitions'' contain elements from [[Open for Business]] it will not be possible to run your own business in the same style <ref>[http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/thesims3ambitions/news.html?sid=6252806&mode=previews The Sims 3 Ambitions Q&A - Exclusive First Details]</ref>
