EA teaser may be pointing to a new Sims 4 expansion with a tattoo artist career, right after a massive update with over 70 new items
Update: EA has just revealed its new Motherlode roadmap confirming that the trailer coming is indeed a first look at new DLC for The Sims 4 dubbed the Businesses & Hobbies Expansion Pack, with three kits to follow later down the line.The Sims 4 just got a massive update in celebration of the life sim series' 25th birthday, with more than 70 items and a nostalgic new event – but the good news doesn't end there, as EA is seemingly teasing yet another expansion pack.
It looks like EA is wishing The Sims a very humple borpnah, between the Legacy Collection re-releases on PC and the new Sims 4 update – but it's not done. In what appears to be a teaser for a full trailer coming Thursday, February 6, a Sim is seen lying atop a massage-style table with an uncomfortable expression across his face. A tattoo is clearly visible on his arm, and what looks to be tattoo ink-esque art adorns the wall.
The attached caption also sounds oddly tattoo-aligned: "That's gonna leave a mark." Could a tattoo artist career be in the works for The Sims 4? Rumors of a possible expansion themed around hobbies and jobs have been floating about social media recently, and EA's short clip might point to there being some truth to them. Fans are already speculating that the coming trailer will showcase just that – another pack that's all about careers.
"GET TO WORK 2.0 WE WON," comments one especially enthusiastic Simmer. "I'm so ready for The Sims 4 Open for Freetime Expansion Pack," jokes another. There's no telling just yet whether that's what the teaser is truly leading up to reveal, however, or if the rumors circulating online will ring true. For now, though, the community has over 70 colorful clothes and items to explore as well as the new Blast from the Past event to play through.
The Sims is back after 25 years, and it's teaching Sims 4 players a lesson in retro life sim difficulty: "Damn this game is hard"

Conan O'Brien sounds the alarm about late night, while praising Stephen Colbert
While receiving a TV Academy Hall of Fame award, Conan O'Brien offered some thoughts about the state of late-night television. The former late-night host talked to those gathered over the weekend in Los Angeles for the event, where O'Brien noted that there is currently 'a lot of fear about the future of television, and rightfully so.' 'The life we've all known for almost 80 years is undergoing seismic change,' O'Brien said. His remarks come after the recent announcement that CBS would be ending 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' in May 2026. While CBS cited financial reasons for the cancellation, there have been questions about the timing of the announcement, which came just before federal regulators approved a sale of Paramount, the parent company of CBS. During the ceremony, O'Brien said he had decided 'not to mourn what is lost, because I think in the most essential way, what we have is not changing at all.' 'Streaming changes the pipeline, but the connection, the talent, the ideas that come into our homes… I think it's the focus,' he said. 'We have proof here tonight.' O'Brien, who was being honored along with Viola Davis, Don Mischer, Ryan Murphy, Mike Post and Henry Winkler, said Colbert 'is going to evolve and shine brighter than ever in a new format that he controls completely.' 'Technology can do whatever they want. It can make television a pill. It can make television shows a high-protein, chewable, vanilla-flavored capsule with added fiber,' O'Brien said. 'It still won't matter, if the stories are good, if the performances are honest and inspired, if the people making it are brave and of goodwill.'

Why Masters Of The Universe Is ‘The Complete Antithesis' Of Barbie, According To A Mattel Exec
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Next year, after years of failed attempts, we will finally get the first live-action Masters of the Universe since 1987. Considering it's a movie based on a line of action figures, one might not be expecting much. Of course, that was the case with Barbie, and that movie became a massive hit. While the two IPs have a similar basis, Mattel Studios president and chief creative officer Robbie Brenner tells The Wrap that the upcoming Masters of the Universe movie is very much the opposite of Barbie. At least when it comes to its primary demographic. Brenner says… And there's 'Masters of the Universe,' which is the complete antithesis of what 'Barbie' is. 'Barbie' was all about femininity and embracing feminism and the issues around all of that, and 'Masters' is fun and it's a huge spectacle and it's something totally different. It deals with masculinity in a very fun, funny way. While I would argue that, through Ryan Gosling's Ken, Barbie had plenty to say about masculinity, femininity was certainly what the movie was focused on. It sounds like Masters of the Universe won't simply be a movie designed to appeal more to a male demographic, but one that will deal directly with issues of masculinity. While this makes it the antithesis of Barbie, might also make it the perfect companion film. Interestingly, Brenner calls the new Masters of the Universe movie both 'fun' and 'funny' which seems to echo the recent comments of Alison Brie, who will play Evil-Lyn in the new film. She responded to reports that the movie was taking a more serious approach to the material by suggesting those rumors were off the mark, and Mattel's CCO would seem to confirm that. Brenner praises director Travis Knight as the 'visionary' behind the Masters of the Universe movie. After successfully launching the stop-motion animation house Laika, Knight would go on to direct Bumblebee, the best reviewed entry in the live-action Transformers franchise, which brought a previously unseen heart to the series. Mattel's CCO seems to feel he has done the same with He-Man, saying… [Director] Travis [Knight] is just a visionary. He's an incredible filmmaker. I think that people are going to be so delighted with this new rendition. I think people are kind of over swords and capes, and we need to find something different. This movie is heartfelt, it's fun, the action is amazing. It's inspirational, it's aspirational. It's a coming-of-age story with an amazing, colorful, insane backdrop. Beyond a few teasing images that don't show much, we haven't seen anything about the Masters of the Universe movie, which will star Nicholas Galitzine as the iconic He-Man. Despite its apparent differences, Mattel is certainly hoping that Masters of the Universe will be like Barbie in at least one major way, its box office success. Solve the daily Crossword
