Updates to Eyelashes, a New App and whole lot of Romantic Activities in Ciudad Enamorada!
EA and Maxis have announced officially the next Expansion Pack called The Sims 4 Lovestruck. This 40USD Expansion DLC comes with a new World, new gameplay and mechanisms, CAS and Build along with new animations. Typical Expansion Pack content that you would expect, but this is an Expansion theme that hasn’t been much worked upon since The Sims 1: Hot Date!
The return of fan favorite Heart Shaped Bed along with interesting features with Sims 4 twists makes this Pack something to look forward to this summer. From the reveal trailer itself we’ve gotten plenty of feature confirmations and teases already, so let’s dig deeper into what was shown today:
Grown Up Costumes
The Sims Team is definitely getting as frisky as they can with this Expansion, adding a brand new Grown Up Costume Box to the Pack. This allows for Sims to get playful through roleplay in different costumes. Not guaranteed but might improve your WooHoo life!
Penthouses
It’s been 7 years since City Living last came out. And the last Penthouse options we had until The Sims 4 Lovestruck! The new world Ciudad Enamorada offers two new Penthouse lots, totaling with 13 lots in the entire new world.
Better Eyelashes
They say that the devil is in the details. And if you look closer in the picture below, you’ll notice that one detail that’s been highly requested since the release of The Sims 4 are improved eyelashes.
It seems that The Sims Team has finally taken into request by including more detailed eyelashes with The Sims 4 Lovestruck. Time will tell if there are any variants available for Base Game!
New WooHoo Spots
It’s been that The Sims 4 Lovestruck Expansion Pack will offer 3 new spots to WooHoo. So far we know that you can get frisky in the portable blanket. The trailer has also shown two Sims doing the WooHoo deed in the storage room.
You Can’t Always Do It With A Broken Heart
The exclusive new death type coming with The Sims 4 Lovestruck Expansion Pack is a Death By A Broken Heart. Sims who are aspiring lovers might get disappointed in certain things that might obstruck with their love story. Things like attraction and the brand new Romantic Boundaries features will play great role in triggering this new death.
The Iconic Heart Bed
First appeared in The Sims 1, this heart shaped bed has been a staple in The Sims Franchise throughout the entire franchise. Its variations were spread out then through The Sims 2 Apartment Life, The Sims 3 High End Loft Stuff Pack and now The Sims 4 Lovestruck!
It was first teased as an dissasembled heart bed in The Sims 4 Basement Treasures Kit.
New Phone App: Cupid’s Corner
The Sims 4 is finally getting a new Phone App with this new Expansion Pack. The Cupid’s Corner App is a dating app that will allow your Sims to meet potential new romantic interests. This app is available only for Young Adults, Adults and Elders who can snap their selfie, create a list of Traits and essential info and match with other Sims around the Neighborhood and other Worlds too.
In your profile information, you can list your Sexual Orientation, split into two new categories:
- Romantically Attracted to
- interested in WooHoo with
You can choose which three of the ages interest your dating life, as well as set your Traits that you want to display. You can always lie and tell them you’re someone different trough traits though!
In the Matches panel you’ll be able to match or pass Sim profiles that come suggested depending on your preferences. You can like them and have them saved in the list of matches in the third category.
The first gameplay look for The Sims 4 Lovestruck talked about being able to match other Sims through The Gallery too!
New World
Ciudad Enamorada, the name of the new world coming with The Sims 4 Lovestruck, actually has a cute meaning in Spanish! It translates to “City in Love”, and goes perfectly vibrant with the new features coming with this Pack.
Before the reveal trailer came on The Sims Team gave a teaser of the new heart shaped Pond, possibly featured in this new world.
New Romantic Interactions
Sims are closer than ever before with gorgeous romantic interactions. Some providing new variations of kissing, cuddling in bed, dancing and sharing gifts and cakes!
Round Pools
The rumored new feature coming with The Sims 4 Lovestruck (and possibly to The Sims 4 Base Game entirely) are the new round pools. Shown quickly in the trailer along with the new Penthouse, there’s a Pool with seemingly new customization options that allows it to be round at the ends.
Hope this feature gets confirmed closer in July!
The Sims 4 Lovestruck Expansion Pack is set to release on July 25th, 2024 across Desktop and Console supported platforms.
