The Sims Team has released a brand new blog talking about their brand redesign, the latest update and more coming down the line for The Sims 4’s fifth anniversary!

Hello, Simmers!

The Sims 4 has evolved and grown so much over the past few years, and is healthier than ever. We’re very committed to this passionate community and to welcoming new players. So, we’re excited to announce that The Sims 4 is getting a facelift with new cover art, Sims and outfits, and a brand-new Plumbob. We want to approach our fifth anniversary with a fresh paint job and we cannot wait to show you what’s coming next. In-game updates will come first to PC and Mac, followed by console next month. Check out some of the artwork you’ll see appearing in stores and online.

As you can see, the familiar blues and greens appear in different shapes and patterns across the packs. We’ll use these elements in many ways to bring a bright, bold statement to our Sims trailers, images, and the redesigned icons.

You will see the influence of this style in an updated main menu, where you can now view trailers and link directly to our official social channels. Plus, you’ll get a chance to create and play with the fresh cast of characters through Create A Sim and The Gallery.

We’re delighted to bring you this new look for The Sims 4 and want to thank you for being an important part of The Sims!

Happy Simming!
