The Sims 4 is entering its cottagecore fantasy era! Let’s unpack everything we know about the Enchanted by Nature expansion: fairies, magical worlds, hot gnome lore, and more ✨
The ✨vibes are immaculate✨ in The Sims 4: Enchanted by Nature reveal trailer, and if you’ve ever wanted to live your cottage fantasy life with wings, potions, and a deeply unhinged emotional hunger system… buckle up!
This brand-new expansion drops July 10th, 2025, and pre-orders are open now (with bonus fairy decor if you grab it before August 21st). But before we get into all of that? Let’s talk about these lush forests, sparkly wing overlays, and why gnomes are now ✨kind of a cult.✨
💻 WATCH THE TRAILER HERE
Welcome to Innisgreen
New world, Who dis?
✨ Important Highlights:
This world is giving storybook RPG realness. The new world of Innisgreen is split into three districts:
-
Coast of Adhmor (a cozy, gnomey waterfront)
-
Sprucederry Grove (hello, garden girl fantasy!)
-
Everdew Forest (dense, enchanted, and absolutely crawling with fairy mischief)
It’s all inspired by Celtic and Irish scenery, and the main hub includes a massive magical tree, rumored to be gameplay-interactive. Yes, EA… feed the forestcore girlies🍄✨

🧚♀️ Fairies Are Here, and They’re Serving
The rumors were true! Fairies are the newest playable occult, and honey… they did not come to blend in. From glowy tattoos and gliding animations to full-blown fairy powers, this life state is so much more than wings and sparkles.
Your Sims can transform into a fairy and choose between two alignments:
-
Harmonious Fairies nurture, heal, and care for plants and Sims alike.
-
Discordant Fairies? Chaos gremlins. Mood manipulators. Tricksters with sparkles.
Fairies survive by absorbing emotions, not food (yep, Emotional Starvation is real). Sip on bottled emotions or vibe-steal from others to stay ✨alive and thriving.✨
There’s also a TON of customization in CAS; think glowing body markings, wing shapes, iridescent skin tones, floral accessories, enchanted hairstyles, and more. Plus, Fairy Sims can sprinkle Fairy Dust on objects and even other Sims to enchant or animate them!
🌿 Core Features (a.k.a. Why We’re Frothing)

🌼 Gameplay Systems
Let’s get into the weeds (literally):
-
🌙 Natural Living Skill: Level up by sleeping outdoors, foraging, pond bathing. Dirty hippie queen. 🥰🌿

🍀 Luck System: Your Sim’s luck can tank… or slay! Charm it up or suffer the consequences.
-
🌿 New Traits: Plant Lover, Mystical, and Disruptive. I relate.
-
🧪 Elixir Crafting: New aspiration (Elixir Enthusiast) and career path (Naturopath) for the potion girlies.
🏡 Gnomecore Architecture & Fairy Dream Homes
The Sims team really said “storybook realness” with these builds, huh? Enchanted by Nature comes loaded with ✨actual community-made lots✨ by creators like CrackedKyber, The Sim Scrolls, Ninahschmidt, and Sandra Pyka, and honestly… they popped off.
From flower-drenched cafes to full-blown forest treehouses, the builds in Innisgreen feel like Pinterest boards come to life, with a sprinkle of fairy dust and a whole lot of greenery.

✨ Until next time; may your builds be dreamy, your Sims be messy, and your gnomes stay chaotic as ever.
This pack has me twirling in the forest in 4K already. It’s weird, it’s whimsical, and it’s probably going to ruin my Sims’ digestive systems (emotionally). From cottage-core witches to chaotic gnome conspiracies… color me obsessed.
