Let’s take a closer look at what is in the upcoming update:

Sul Sul Simmers!

Welcome to this month’s Laundry List, where we share a list of the top community concerns we’re currently investigating and hope to resolve in the next update that will be released alongside The Horse Ranch Update. This is only a list of topics with upcoming fixes; there are more topics reported by players that are not listed and are still being worked on. This list is based on reports by players on Answers HQ and helps us continue our work of improving the user experience on a regular basis.

Please note that some topics can be tricky and may require an extended investigation on our end, so even though we are actively reviewing, it’s not a guarantee that we’ll have an immediate fix in the upcoming patch.

Here’s the list of the community concerns we’re investigating and aiming to resolve in the game update this month:

When is the next Sims 4 Update?

Based upon the previous The Sims 4 Laundry Lists, we should expect to see the next The Sims 4 Base Game update in the very near future. The last few Laundry Lists have seen game updates release around seven days after publication. However, this is based on the release windows we’ve seen in the past and this may vary for this next patch.

Considering that Horse Ranch Expansion Pack is releasing on Thursday, we can expect the next Sims 4 Update on Tuesday, July 18th 2023.
