Electronic Arts and Maxis are announcing today the final farewell to The Sims 4 Build Your Bundle, with the introduction of another new feature titled The Sims 4 Stack & Save. Currently exclusive for the EA App launcher on PC and Mac.<\/p>\n

The Stack & Save feature lets you add an additional discount by choosing DLC content from a EA-curated list. Letting you add a discount on top of a possibly another availble discount, or just giving a bigger discount by choosing to purchase more recommended content.<\/p>\n

The Stack & Save Feature was first shown in the EA App today, letting you add an extra 50% off if you choose to purchase select Expansion Packs. The current offer for me shows the High School Years + For Rent Expansions combination, which will give you additional 50% off if you choose to purchase both:<\/p>\n

The Build Your Own Bundle feature for The Sims 4 Packs has been replaced by Stack & Save on the EA app, making it easier to choose a combination of The Sims 4 Expansion, Game, and Stuff Packs to unlock bigger discounts. Learn which Packs are eligible, what content isn\u2019t, and how to get discounted prices when you buy.<\/p>\n
