Don’t you worry, there is a Sul Sul Mega Sims Team dedicated to bug fixes since May 2024, so expect the next update to see the San Myshuno Magnet of the “From the Forever Friends Event” fixed as it should say Mt. Komorebi instead.

The rest of bugs for a later date!

I HAVE to ask, where do you see these patch notes, because they are NOT on the official page, and I can not find them in the forums. In the future, could you at least link your sources?
