The Sims 25th Anniversary celebration has rung in a nostalgic event for The Sims 4, showcasing many iconic items from the franchise. We’re here to show you all the Blast from the Past event rewards and how to claim them.
Sims 4 Blast from the Past event guide
The Sims 4 Blast from the Past event is a six-week extravaganza that centers around The Sims franchise’s past and present. You’ll need to complete various weekly objectives in Live Mode to earn rewards, similar to past events like the Reaper’s Reward.

If you played the Sims 2 and 3, you may remember the missing person milk cartons. Now, they’re back in the fourth iteration, allowing you to collect different variants for decorations. You’ll see plenty of more callbacks to past entries, including Sims 2’s Get Up! Alarm Clock.
There are also some new items to claim, like the Surprise Birthday Cake. It’ll make birthday parties much more interesting, as a Sim can hide inside the cake to surprise their special someone. I just hope it doesn’t scare anyone to death, as Sims tend to die in the oddest ways. Fortunately, you can use the Life and Death cheats if things do go wrong.
