With some help from the wonderful folks from DotSim and L’UniverSims we were able to compile a list of some of the new features that are coming with the Content Update before the release of The Sims 4 Cats & Dogs Expansion Pack.

NOTE: Information mentioned down below is from September 2017 from a software that was not final. Things are subject to change and we do not guarantee that every feature listed below will be available in the upcoming content update.


  • New roof types with a different number of sides. There are 5-sided, 6-sided, 8-sided and round roofs.
  • New sliders that will help you modify the shape of a roof.
    • New sliders will be available on each roof type, letting you change their shape (for example you can make roofs that are “wavy”)

“New Occult Category”
Oooh does that mean we’ll be getting more additions to that category at some point?

That is what I’m thinking, so it now makes sense to have a separate category for them!

It should be. It has been a tradition to every sims game.

Yeah, it would be cool if you could make a plant sims from inside CAS instead of doing the challenge, especially as the challenge is now over.

I’m looking forward to the Sim Cap feature. Would it be possible to add a cap on the number of townies that are generated..(like maybe an option to stop that generation completely)..?

Well nice, but only some roof options and a minimizing function (wasn’t that already possible?!) is not really much for an update. I’d love to see the ability to build foundations one on another, like it was possible in Sims 2, creating all possible building hights through two or more foundations. It just looked far more realistic in building reality-like houses. Oh and spiral stairs would be reeeaaally nice because the conventional straight stairs are utterly boooring (and they take too much space with 5 cubes in total!).

“After you start a new game you will be first directed to the World Menu, not Create A Sim.”

I see they got tired of my constant nagging about this
