The Sims 4 Voice Change – You Might’ve Noticed Your Sims Sounding A Little Different…
With the July 1st update, some players noticed that Sims with the ‘Melodic’ voice type were sounding a little different when speaking certain phrases. Over on Twitter, user OnlyAbiDoang posted about this occurrence on July 11th, with Liberty Lee switching between what seemed like different voices. You can check out the video below!
Apparently, the July 1st update mysteriously replaced some voice lines from the 'Melodic' Sim voice with those from a new voice actor. Since only some lines were replaced, Sims with the voice now sound inconsistent at times. Are they going to slowly replace this voice? 🤔 https://t.co/vTAZ1AO3sS pic.twitter.com/4FebwJr2UL

Previously, on Monday 7th July, a user by the name of XDomina reported this on the EA Forums. Community Manager of The Sims Forums, EA_Cade, responded to XDomina with an explanation for this happening.
The original voice actor for the Melodic voice type has left the cast, EA_Cade says. This could mean that over time, new voice lines will be either dubbed over or continue switching between actors.
Voice Differences – Old vs New
Again, thanks to OnlyAbiDoang, we can have a direct comparison between the two voice actors. The original actress had voiced lines up until the release of Enchanted by Nature. Check it out below!

I would never have known. My game’s sound is totally broken. I often played muted and I unmuted to check out the new radio only to find… no noise at all. I hope they fix it asap. I’d like to check out that radio station still and now the new voice actor.
i think it sounds fine, not all that different. speaking of, i would actually love if the sims 4 added completely new voices, in addition to the six that we already have. would love some variety and often times it feels like none of them really “fit” the sims i make. i’m surprised that i haven’t found mods that do this, with ameteur voice actors offering up their simlish babble or something ahaha.
