The Reaper’s Rewards event in The Sims 4 has officially come to an end as of today, November 26. Players have until the end of the day to claim any unclaimed rewards before they are permanently removed. If you’re running behind on collecting your hard-earned rewards, now is your final opportunity to log in and secure them.

What Happens When the Event Ends?

The Reaper’s Rewards event was introduced as part of a recent patch and gave players a limited time to complete event-specific quests and challenges. While the event quests and progression are no longer available, the reward screen will remain accessible until the end of today. After this, unclaimed rewards will be lost for good.

Key Details:

  • Deadline for claiming rewards: November 26.
  • Rewards are tied to your EA account: They should remain accessible even if you switch computers or reinstall the game, as long as you log in with the same EA account.
  • Issues with reward claims: Players have reported ongoing bugs that prevented them from claiming some rewards.

Potential New Patch Update Incoming

With the Reaper’s Rewards event concluding, speculation has grown about a potential new patch update. Historically, The Sims team has released patches both to introduce and conclude in-game events. However, it remains unclear whether this update will include additional features.

What Could Be in the Patch?

While expectations should be tempered, here’s what players might see:

  • Bug fixes: Addressing known issues reported during the event.
  • New swatches or minor content updates: These small additions have been included in past updates but are not guaranteed.
  • Reaper’s Rewards cleanup: Ensuring the removal of event-specific assets from the game.

Players hoping for substantial new content might need to wait longer, as major updates are typically reserved for larger seasonal patches.

Player Reactions to Event Issues

The Reaper’s Rewards event has drawn mixed reactions from The Sims Community. While some players successfully earned and claimed their rewards, others experienced significant technical issues. Reports included:

  • Rewards failing to unlock after completing objectives.
  • Progress resets and glitches affecting event quests.

Despite these problems, an EA Community Manager acknowledged the feedback provided by players, stating that the team would use the data collected during the event to improve future experiences. However, unresolved issues from this event have left some players frustrated.
