While you wait for Halloween's Life and Death Expansion Pack, enjoy a few free items from a lovely limited-time Event where you'll need (in theory 😏) to venture into Live Mode to participate....
The Sims 4 Reaper's Rewards Event - September and October of 2024
Get ready for a free, limited-time Event where you'll need to venture into Live Mode to participate.
The Grim Reaper is reaching out to you…but don’t be afraid to answer since it seems Grim wants your help. And the best part? You'll be rewarded for your efforts throughout the Event, with one being a brand new Lot Challenge, Scare Seeker, where Sims will get excited instead of scared while on the lot!
The Sims 4 Reaper's Rewards Event - How Does it Work?
Open Live Mode with an existing or new Household. After a short wait, The Grim Reaper will call upon you!
The Event will run for eight weeks, with two exciting Quests each week. Your journey begins by assisting Grim with researching Ambrosia, a special Gourmet dish that can lift any Sim’s spirits. As the weeks progress, you’ll continue to unlock the secrets of Ambrosia and eventually learn how to cook it! The more Quests you complete, the more Event Points and rewards you’ll earn.
- Make sure you’re online. Log in to your EA account.
- Enter Live Mode, and you’ll see the first pair of Quests, which start with a pop-up. In Live Mode, you can access the Event Screen by clicking on the Event Icon!
- Earn Event Points by completing Quests and Goals. As you earn Event Points, you’ll be able to claim new rewards.
- Claim your rewards through the Event Screen in the Main Menu or Live Mode by selecting Claim. Note: You must be in Live Mode to claim Consumable Rewards.
- Claimed rewards will be available in Build Mode, Create a Sim, or your Sim’s Inventory. You can filter to view Event rewards with the Event Rewards filter under the Special category in both Create a Sim and Build Mode. For more help with claiming rewards, check out our EA Help article.
- Each week, two new Quests will be available. Complete these Quests to earn more Event Points and unlock new rewards!
- The Reaper’s Rewards Event will have six weeks of Quests and two extra weeks at the end, so there’s plenty of time to catch up and complete it!
Claim the Reaper’s Rewards to create a goth-chic Sim who revels in a good scare, or just enjoy a chance to get to know Grim a little better! Rest assured, your claimed rewards are stored on your EA account, so you do not need to worry about losing them (I wouldn't count on it 😵).

The Sims 4 Reaper's Rewards FAQ (from EA)
Do I need to log in to my EA account?
A: Yes, by logging into your EA account, you save your Event progress and the rewards you earn from this Event to the account. That way, if you ever need to install The Sims 4 again, you simply need to log back in to gain access to your rewards!
Are these rewards really free?
A: Yes, these rewards are free when you claim them through the Event Screen. Once claimed, the rewards for this Event will be available in the Base Game.
What about SDX releases, I thought those were to provide free content and updates!
A: Sims Delivery Express drops aren’t going away, but we're always looking for new and novel ways to deliver gameplay, as well as objects and clothing to add to your Sims' lives. You can still expect SDX releases throughout the year as well as new Events to engage with The Sims 4 throughout the seasons.
What if I log in and don’t see the Event?
A: The Event starts on 9/24 at 9 a.m. PST and ends on 11/19. Please make sure you are online and logged into your EA Account. If you still do not see it, you may need to restart The Sims 4 or disable any UI mods you have installed.
Will this be available to Everyone?
A: Yes! The Reaper’s Reward Event will be available to everyone starting 9/24, and you won’t need any Packs to participate.
What are Event Points?
A: Event Points are a limited-time measurement for the Reaper’s Rewards Event that allows you to claim free rewards. As you earn Event Points, you progress along an experience track and can claim rewards along the way.
How do I earn Event Points?
A: Each Quest Objective in a quest gives Event Points. Mousing over the Quest will have a tooltip telling you how many points you will earn. Completing the entire Quest nets additional Event Points. Once you have enough, you can claim rewards.
Do I have to spend Event Points?
A: Your Event Points are a cumulative total. When you claim a reward, you still stay at the same Event Point total, so your Event Points aren’t actually “spent.”
What happens if I have leftover Event Points?
A: Grim is offering a finite number of rewards. If you claim them all and still have Event Points, don’t worry! Your Event Points cannot be used for anything other than the Reaper’s Rewards Event and will expire when the Event is over.
Can I still complete the Event if I start late?
A: Yes, the event will run for 8 weeks. If you start late, you will have access to all the previous week’s Quests.
