Seeing as The Sims turns 21 years old today, many players were wondering if this milestone would mean a new game update with some goodies in store for the community. Last year’s birthday “gift” left players underwhelmed when The Sims released a base game hot tub in honour of the franchise’s 20th anniversary; a recycled item from a six-year-old stuff pack.
It looks like we may be in for a treat this year, however, because The Sims Twitter account has teased a gift that the community itself had a hand in creating.

This isn’t the first time The Sims has partnered with prominent creators in the community. All of the lots in Mt. Komorebi from the Snowy Escape expansion were built by Game Changers, as well as a lot from the latest stuff pack, Paranormal Stuff. These partnerships with Game Changers have been well-received by the fanbase, so hopefully this means we can expect something exciting on February 25th!
my fav thing about Sims Community is they knows what they want unlike Sims Creators lmao pls don’t give us another hot tub
The sims team: Happy 20th birthday to us! Here, have an ugly hot tub (I’m referring to the plumbob swatch) on the house! Aren’t you happy?
Everyone who spent $10 on perfect patio stuff for (let’s be honest) the sole purpose of obtaining the hot tub gameplay: Am I a joke to you?
EA: oh modders are making content that people love just for free, let’s hire them and sell their content to the players
it’s a free update and they’re at least getting paid, if you’re gonna act cute at least get your facts right lmao
