In addition to seeing The Sims 4 Island Living trailer during EA PLAY, we also managed to capture a glimpse of some of the upcoming Create A Sim items and also a quick glance at Mermaids too. We have managed to extract some screenshots showcasing some of what was showcased. Of course, this is just a snapshot of what is to come when the expansion pack is released later this month.
I’m wondering… given the fact that it looks like there are two forms for merfolks (like there are for aliens and vampires), does this mean that these merfolks walk on the land too?

Question: will sims be able to be turned into mermaids by other mermaids or will it only be through CAS?
They mean if like vampires can turn humans to biting them so their wondering if mermaids can turn humans into another mermaid by doing something to them

No your sim will be able to be turned either from cas or kelp that you would have to look for in the game. I found out through a gameplay on YouTube
