Interestingly enough, the first Sims 4 Loading Screen after the 2019 rebranding was officially marked as a "health hazard" due to a very bright blue background contrasting on the vibrant green Plumbob. The Sims Team carefully considered all the blue colors in the world and picked the most pleasant one. Which we all took for granted unfortunately until The Sims 4's 2025 Rebrand.
The new Sims 4 Loading Screen
The new Sims 4 Loading Screen works more mysteriously than we originally thought. As you all know, 99% of Sims 4 players out there still have a normal loading screen appearing. But it seems that number is changing now, considering that the new Loading Screens are activated online depending on your area.
The person to spot the new Sims 4 Loading Screen is reddit user Environmental_Bug964, who reports seeing a new Loading Screen layout in their game:
This advertisement is covering my loading screen it wasn't like this yesterday. EA WTH!!!! 😡 Especially since I already have this pack!
The new Sims 4 Loading Screen is characterized by rotating screenshots from The Sims 4 DLC Content Catalogue. With a spinning Plumbob now moved to the bottom right, and Game Tips to the bottom part of the screen.
Considering that the updated Loading Screens are activated online, it might be harder for players to Mod out and replace their custom Sims 4 Loading Screens this time around. Since players can't choose when the Sims DLC Screenshot Loading Screen appears in their game, it might function as a seperate online screen overlay coded directly into the Base Game. This is just speculation for now as we'll know more about how they work in the days to come.
For now, it seems these new Loading Screens are being tested out for select random players worldwide. Are you one of those lucky players? Let us know in the comments section down below and stay tuned to upcoming Sims 4 Updates!

Will this affect the custom loading screen I use?

I’m not against it, I just wish they made an effort to present some original screenshots, and not the ones we’ve been seeing for years (and for some almost a decade).

I mean nobody complains that Sims 3 had the same thing, the only difference is the Sims 3 had a mini game for Karma points ♂️

the PC interactive loading screens were pieces of shit that made the game actually load slower. with sims 4 being a 64-bit game they might actually work.

My problem with this redesign features is that they don’t match with the game UI that still looks like the original 2014 game. It’s so inconsistent and it doesn’t add anything of value to the game.

I’m not against it…but I wish they just completely overhaul the UI to match the new UI instead of it being half new and half old.
