With recent posts hyping up base game updates going as far back as March, The Sims team seems to have begun scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to promotion of new content for the Sims 4, especially if we take a look ahead to the Sims 4 June Update. It has been about three months since a leak came out that The Sims 4 would see no more mainline DLC, like Expansion Packs, Game Packs, and Stuff Packs. As to be expected, all recent content after The Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy has been Kits, Collabs, Marketplace Maker Packs, and Free Updates.
The previous few updates primarily focused on fixing long-time issues with infant and caregiver autonomy, as well as adding a Base Layers CAS category and "SimSearch", a change to the Sims 4 Gallery and its search. ow, the Sims Team released a teaser message for another new update. The Sims 4 June Update is looking to be rounding out to another large update with tons of fixes, with the team teasing the Laundry List release on June 23rd.
The Sims Team Posts a Teaser Message for The Sims 4 June Update
Sul Sul, Simmers, We are performing final testing on fixes scheduled for our June 30 Base Game update, watch for more in our next Laundry List on June 23. You can expect to see fixes for doctor and actor careers, pets, dynasties, the Gallery, and more. Gallery fixes include an issue that was preventing players from downloading custom tattoos, endless loading, as well as soft locking on consoles. More in our June 23 Laundry List.

This teaser claims that some major bugs players have been dealing with recently are going to be fixed, including for PC, Mac, and Console Players. While they're not elaborated on heavily in the teaser, a few that are a hot topic on the EA Forums include...
Console Players Cannot Download Custom Tattoos
It's been almost a month I keep trying to download tattos from the gallery on PS5 again and again and it's impossible I tried everything, verify my internet connection but nothing and is making me so mad at this point, not only I can't download it but I also can't procede with my game like "leave" the gallery and keep creating my sim, completly impossible, the game just stay still, the page loading forever. Wich means that if you had a almost done sim and try to download a tatto, well you can't save it either!
Please fix this soon, is making creating sims completly impossible.
Edit by crinrict
This is a Playstation only issue, related to custom tattoos. If you have freezing and general issues with interacting on XBox or Playstation please use this thread instead:
I’ve recently purchased the businesses and hobbies expansion for the sims on the Xbox and I’m noticing that everytime I try to get a custom tattoo on the gallery it put my game in this infinite loading mode. The only fix is to completely close out the game. There doesn’t seem to be any work around for getting these off the gallery too. I’m not sure if anyone else has been dealing with this.
Hello, I have tried everything to fix this issue of the stylist glitching out after doing the makeup, changing skin tone, hair, using debug menu on chair, people, and it is still not working, and it only started after update today. Can I please have someone assist me with this, as I am clueless on what to do now and cant do acting at the moment unfortunately. I also don't have any CC or Mods installed.
Are there any bugs listed in the Sims Team's teaser that you're looking forward to a fix for? Let us know! Keep up to date with The Sims Community and we'll keep you up to date with everything The Sims 4... bugs and all!

Still waiting to have them fix the couples suddenly becoming siblings bug. I always have to start a new family when it happens.

Fix the fact that I (and over 200 other people up voted) cannot place items from the gallery (even our own builds) because it says we don’t “own all content”, even tho I own ebryhtijt) everything. Spent months building a lot, and now I can’t even use it. Makes the game totally unplayable.

Still waiting for a fix for Grimborn faces getting squashed over time. It’s been a bug since the Life and Death pack released.

Console players cannot rotate objects like roof and stairs since at least JANUARY! insteadusing RB makes you cycle through the build tools menu. It makes building virtually impossible. I am primarily a builder and this had prevented me from playing for most of the year. Effectively making $1000 work of content unusable. FIX THIS!

I hear you there, I’m in the same boat on PS5.
But I learned it doesn’t happen all of the time. Try putting a family in the lot and then going to build mode from there. You’ll need to use cheats for money, of course.
Best of luck sister.

I’m a console player,the only issue I have very rarely is that without notice after loading the game,is that a an error has accord,and goes back home to where you choose to play the current game, or choose another house hold.

When are they going to fix werewolves? Becoming a werewolf in live mode turns into nightmare fuel. In beast mode werewolves look cursed having deformed features. They only look like their should when they’re made id CAS. It was reported about a year ago. And it’s been at verified status ever since.

So fixing the crash when leaving the lot or SAVING! Still not a f**king priority?

Ever since the latest update, pets are broken, especially the small dogs and cats. When trying to pick them up for a hug or to “feel the love” it just glitches and the pet is dropped. They also now struggle to meet their needs although all objects necessary are provided in accesible locations, I keep having to cheat their needs 🙁

I hope they fix it so when you send ur sims to the bathroom they walk out of the house and into the water or into a bunch of rocks smh have to close it out and start over.. anyone else?

Mi problema es que después de crear Sims, no me deja guardarlos y subirlos a mi galería, solo puedo jugar con ellos, pero no compartirlos. También me ha pasado que después de jugar un rato, no me guarda las partidas, se queda pensando y pensando, y ya no me deja hacer nada, me toca apagar mi PC a la fuerza, y eso la puede dañar. Por eso últimamente no he jugado casi nada. Ayuda, por favor
