Pet content was first hinted at in a survey conducted in March 2015.<ref>http://simsvip.com/2014/03/20/thesims4-new-official-survey-making-its-rounds/</ref> On April 9, a Facebook post hinted towards the idea of a ''Pets'' expansion.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/dieSims/posts/10152810595993583</ref> Shortly after, SimsVIP released a post pointing out the "hints" towards the new expansion in existing game items.<ref>http://simsvip.com/2015/04/16/the-sims-4-pets-on-the-horizon-rumorspeculation/</ref>

Later 'hints' include
* A paw print symbol prominently displayed on a jacket.<ref>http://simscommunity.info/2017/05/29/no-this-is-definitely-not-a-pets-hint/</ref>
* A Guinea pig on the 17th Anniversary shirt (left hip)
 
* Mentions of pets in object descriptions<ref>http://simscommunity.info/2017/05/29/the-sims-4-parenthood-object-descriptions-are-hilarious-and-full-of-possible-hints/</ref>
However, besides just 'hints' being found in the game, many lines of code have been found by members of the community inside update files.
 
These 'leaks' have consisted of
* Code relating to species separation, such as dogs having different constraints from humans (among other things)<ref>http://simscommunity.info/2017/01/12/the-sims-4-code-found-for-pets-expansion-pack/</ref>

===The Sims 4: PetsSeasons===
;Status
: [[The Sims 4: Seasons|'''Confirmed true''']]
 
On March 4, 2018, Sims fansite [[SimsVIP]] issued a post that stated [[Electronic Arts]] would potentially be releasing a [[Seasons]] expansion pack for ''[[The Sims 4]]'' on September 18, 2018, "confirmed" by an EA customer support agent.<ref>[https://simsvip.com/2018/03/04/aother-one-ea-agent-gives-release-date-sims-4-seasons/ SimsVIP Sims 4 Seasons speculation]</ref> Additionally, a twitter thread shows different EA agents confirming a Seasons expansion pack.<ref>[https://twitter.com/xxThatGirlKayxx/status/970510167497412608 Sims 4 Seasons Twitter thread]</ref>

=== The Sims 4: Island Living ===
[[File:Sims 4 Tropical Paradise InstantGaming.png|thumb|220x220px]]
;Status
: [[The Sims 4: Island Living|'''Confirmed true''']]
 
On May 15, 2019, gaming retail website InstantGaming listed an expansion pack called "The Sims 4: Tropical Paradise". Soon after, a Dutch gaming retail website Gamesync.nl also listed the game.
 
The leak at first seems to be fake as the description found in InstantGaming is a direct copy paste from a [https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/957114/a-mysterious-expansion-pack-coming-in-june-2019/p1 thread in the official The Sims Forums], first published in March 15, 2019. Gamesync.nl, however, does not have the same description as InstantGaming, making the credibility of this leak unquestionable.
 
''[[The Sims 4: Island Living]]'' and its official description alongside various images were accidentally leaked by EA in Origin on June 7, 2019, essentially confirming the earlier rumors and leaks to be true.<ref>[https://simsvip.com/2019/06/07/the-sims-4-island-living-first-screenshots-game-description/ The Sims 4 Island Living: First Screenshots + Game Description]</ref> ''The Sims 4: Island Living'' was officially announced during EA Play on June 8, 2019.
