Adventure Awaits, the next expansion pack for The Sims 4, will become available on October 2, 2025. EA tends to host themed events a couple of weeks before the release of an EP to get players excited for it. Adventure Awaits focuses on childhood and imaginary friends, and to go with the theme, the developers have come up with the Forever Friends event.

The Forever Friends event begins in The Sims 4 on Tuesday, September 23, 2025. If the event goes similarly to previous Sims 4 events, quests should drop at 9 or 10 AM PT.

Forever Friends Week 1 Quests will become available on September 23, and after this, players can expect more weekly quests to release every Tuesday. Week 4 Quests will be the final set of quests, and they should go live on October 14.

The Forever Friends event is scheduled to end on November 4, so players will have a total of seven weeks to complete each of its quests.
