"The Sims 4" fans have been expecting a video game console version for quite a time now, but EA, the game developer and publisher, has not issued any statement so far. Many gamers are speculating that a bundle may be made available next year, with all the DLC pack included.

Fans are speculating that EA has decided to release all the DLC packs and game packs first for its PC version of "The Sims 4" and then repack everything in a bundle for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles. This has been one of the rumors circulating within the community concerning the reason behind such delay. If this proves to be true, console fans can expect the game to be ready after the release of its last DLC for the PC version, CrossMap reported.

Fans are also speculating that a technical issue is causing the delay of the ported version of the game. It has been close to two years since the game has been released and previous versions did not take this long, as fans discussed in the community. Some game fans are even thinking that there will be no "The Sims 4" this time around for the video game consoles.

In connection to this, it was also rumored that EA is already working on "The Sims 5" and this version is said to be designed to work with the consoles right from the very start.

On the other hand, some gamers also see in the delay for the ported game the level of commitment that the studio is offering them. Fans see that EA doesn't want to release a half-baked product, just to calm down the public because the demand is high, then try to fix the game inch-by-inch as needed, Albany Daily Star stated.

However, these are all speculation and nothing official has been offered by EA for the rumored ported version.

For the meantime, PC fans can look forward to another stuff pack, "Backyard Stuff," that will arrive soon with the game, as previously reported.
