As per usual, the weekly InZOI Update Developer Diary has released, going over items that are planned for, in-progress, in-testing, or coming to the soonest major update! After being away for the holidays, the developers have a primary focus on player feedback and streamlining gameplay and the user interfaces for players, as well as bringing certain parts of the game to something closer to true realism.
Director and Producer of InZOI, Hyungjun “Kjun” Kim, discusses the little annoyances, new settings to customize the player experience, and feedback on visual changes to Zois themselves that are now being planned for or worked on, and will likely be implemented in an update seen in the new future!
Planned for the Next InZOI Update
○ UI Customizability changes; UI can now be swapped between the new layout (Fills more of the screen) and the old layout (Fills less of the screen). More presets were also added, and you can now change the sizing and layout of multiple UI elements to suit your preferences.
○ An expansion on actions that influence other Zois, mentioned last week, is that if you turn off a television that another Zoi is watching, they may now approach you and get angry.
○ Televisions can now be placed on more types of furniture, looks mainly like end tables.
○ The visual effects are more prominent when a Ghost is using objects.
○ Changes to censoring bodies during bathing; Instead of Zois wearing towels under their bubble censors, the bubbles now spawn on top of their underwear. The underwear has also been changed to a plain white, in hopes that it will blend in better. It was noted that the team is not able to a standard mosaic over naked bodies.
○ Zois will now wear a bathrobe for a short period of time after getting out of a shower of bathtub.
○ More baby outfits have been added!
○ Your Zois can now use flash when taking pictures of their babies.
○ Zois can now clean up all the mess a baby made in a room by interacting with one object, rather than throwing out each object individually.
○ A blur effect has been added when a baby is breastfeeding.
○ A new toy car race track has been added, letting babies watch and play with the car on the track.
In Development with No Specific Release Date
○ Changes to the UI in Create a Zoi regarding situational outfits. Not many details were provided, and Kjun did ask for feedback and suggestions from players.
○ New assets being added for a future update:
○ Mannequins
○ Graduation Robes
○ American Football Uniforms
○ More screenshots were shown regarding the VIP lounge and possible fame system that is being worked on.
○ Changes being made to the bodies of wider or bigger Zois, making them less smooth and more natural. It was noted by Kjun that in Korean culture, there’s a tendency to make everything look “Flawless”, but they heard from many players that they want realistic bodies rather than bodies that looks smoothed or airbrushed.
Kjun’s Weekly Diary, February 28th 2026
InZOI Developer Update: Kjun’s Letter, February 28th, 2026
Hello. It’s a wonderful Friday. The weather in Korea has been getting much nicer lately. Today, I have multiple news to share. First, an announcement about the inZOI “Next Engine Preview” Beta Branch Test. We are currently in the process of upgrading inZOI’s Unreal Engine from version 5.4 to 5.6. To verify the stability and compatibility of the newly integrated engine code in a real gameplay environment, we will be conducting a beta branch test. This build is primarily focused on bug fixes and overall stability improvements. If the test results are positive, we plan to include these changes in the March update. (Yes, there will be another update in March — the inZOI team is working very hard!
However, to properly verify stability, we truly need many of you to participate and play this build. ^^ Your existing save files will remain fully compatible, so you can join without any additional preparation. Please note that mod usage will be restricted in the beta branch for stability testing purposes. Your participation and feedback will greatly help ensure a stable update for the official branch.
○ Participation Period
Thursday, March 5, 2026 ~ Until the official engine upgrade release
○ Available on Steam only.
○ How to Participate (Detailed instructions will be included in next week’s patch notes)
Select inZOI in your Steam Library
Right-click → Open Properties
Go to the “Game Versions & Betas” menu
Select “next_engine” from the beta branch list
The selected version will download automatically after choosing the beta branch. Second, this week we will be sharing various development updates through a video. Please enjoy watching it, and let me know if we are listening carefully to your feedback and making the right improvements.
Thanks to all your valuable feedback, I had another happy week. We will continue doing our best to create the best possible game. See you next week.

The Sims 4 Discover University offers one of the most entertaining life experiences in the game.
The Sims 4 Discover University can either be chaotic and fun… or three weeks of homework, and stress. If you’ve ever dropped out mid-degree (no judgment), this guide will help you rediscover why your Sims university era can actually be one of the most fun life experiences in the game.
Here are a few tips and tricks to make your university gameplay feel fresh, exciting, and story-driven again. Some of them are inspired from a Reddit discussion called “how to make UNIVERSITY FUN in the sims 4?” on r/Sims4.
The Sims 4 Discover University Gameplay Tips
Prepare Your Sim Before Applying to University
Just like in real life there are a few things to have in mind before applying to university. A prepared Sim = a less stressful semester.
Give your Sim a real storyline. Who are they? For example, The overachiever on the edge of burnout or The party Sim who is trying to balance love and exams.
Pause/Turn off aging so you can focus on studies, friendships, and parties instead of racing against the clock.
Reach level 3 in the Research and Debate skill to be able to boost your homework/term papers.
Lastly, what will your Sim study? Pick a degree and level up in a few skills so you can apply for scholarships. You can apply to more than one.
And now…you’re ready to apply. Campus life awaits!
Accepted to University! A New Chapter Begins.
Always enroll so that your semester starts on a Friday, as a result you get the entire weekend to finish homework, term papers, presentations, and build skills. It makes the semester feel organized instead of overwhelming.
Play smart with classes. Take 3 classes per term instead of 4. This will give your Sim more time for other activities, and to have an actual social life. University isn’t just about surviving — it’s about living.
Did you know? That if you have The Sims 4 High School Years you can graduate high school early and enroll in university as a teen.
Personalize Your Dorm
Moved into a dorm and realized you can’t even move a chair slightly to the left? Frustrating. With the cheat code bb.enablefreebuild, you can fully customize your Sims dorm room exactly how you want it without moving your Sim back and forth to the dorm. Build a cozy study corner, set up one (or two) party spaces, design a cool hangout area. Or why not go all in and renovate the entire floor?
Make Your Sims Life Easier (including yours)
Get a bicycle for your Sim to get to class faster.
Upgrade your bed so your Sim sleeps like a royalty, and needs less sleep.
Always take notes in class, it will boost your grade.
Study on lots with the lot trait Study Spot to boost your homework.
Host Keg Parties, and Have FUN!
Host keg parties and actually enjoy campus life! Your Sims need to boost their Fun to keep up with all that homework and studying. Fill your dorm walls with photos of late-night study sessions, chaotic parties, and maybe even your first love.
Embrace Rivalries
Sprinkle a little harmless chaos over Britechester. Pull pranks on your rival university — especially if they’ve targeted yours first. Defend your school’s statue with pride and don’t be afraid to fight back with a little stink spray revenge.
Join The Soccer Team or The E-Sports Team
Join either the Soccer Team or E-Sports team to boost skills, build friendships, and give your Sim a strong head start in athletic or tech-related careers. Just keep in mind that being part of a team requires commitment — practices and game days will fill most of their schedule. Read more about the Soccer Team here and the E-Sports Team here.
Join University Organizations
Make friends, build skills, and unlock social and academic perks. Each university offers three different organizations. Sims can join these organizations by finding members and asking if they can join them.
UBrite Organizations are: Art Society, UBrite Spirit Corps, and The Debate Guild Foxbury Institute Organizations are: Bot Savants, Foxbury Spirit Squad, and The Brainiacs. Read more about each organization here.
Discover the Secret Society
Joining the Secret Society adds a magical and unexpected twist to university gameplay. More than that I won’t tell you. If you want to know the spoilers you can read about it here.
Prepare well, play smart, and have fun— campus life is what you make of it. It’s about the memories, the chaos, and the stories you create along the way. What is your best university experience? Or have you discovered any tips along the way? Let us know in the comments and see more of our Original Articles and Game Guides!
The Sims Team is looking for feedback on how they can improve these two Life Stages!
As announced in the latest Quality of Life Roadmap for 2026, The Sims Team is looking to add Sims 4 Infant and Toddler improvements through various set gameplay systems and mechanics. If you’ve been wanting to change anything in regards to Infant and Toddler autonomy, interactions and/or needs, now’s the time to let the team know!
There are four different segments of feedback you can give to the team through the official EA Sims discord. Here’s the official information you need to know:
The Sims 4 Infant and Toddler Improvements: Official Feedback Info
We announced Infant updates in our latest Quality of Life Roadmap, and now our devs need your help prioritizing and address improvements. Please keep feedback specific and constructive (specific examples help!).
Most frustrating Infant/Toddler autonomy behavior? What happens + what you’d prefer instead.
Any non-autonomy issues hurting fun? Interactions, pacing, tuning, UI, etc.
Thoughts on Infant Need Balance (not bug related)? • Say which Need (Hunger, Energy, etc.) • Share what you like and/or dislike
If you could change one small thing, what would it be?
Thanks for helping us make improvements that matter.
You can send in your feedback only if you have a Discord account and have joined the EA Discord group linked above. The forum thread is linked in the #feedback-forum > Infant & Toddler Feedback Forum
The Sims 4 Infant and Toddler Improvements should be delivered some time between March and August 2026. Along with updates to Sim Autonomy and fixes for Crashes and data loss.
March through August
We’re going to be investigating improvements on these areas:
Sim autonomy: such as Sims choosing inappropriate locations for certain actions, being obsessed with certain objects, or NPC interrupting conversations and other behaviors. Additionally, a large focus on improving Sim sleeping behavior and eyelid animations.
Infant improvements: improving infant and caregiver autonomy, plus ensuring infants receive the correct milestones, interactions, and buffs.
Crashes and data loss: including fixes for black photo issues and the game freezing or crashing.
What feedback do you have about The Sims 4 Infant and Toddler improvements for EA? Let us know in the comments below and stay tuned on Sims Community for more Sims News!

New premade families have landed with the release of The Sims 4 Royalty and Legacy. Premades can be a contentious subject as almost everyone feels differently about every family. Some players delete or ignore any premade sims and prefer to only play with their own, some love to incorporate them into their own stories, some even recreate premade sims from earlier franchise entries! However, with so much of the background in the world of Ondarin centered around the three dynasties that populate it and the individual residents of Ondarion themselves, it may be worth it to at least get to know them a bit before clearing your Unplayed Households!

Ananou Family
Members: Ekene Ananou and his granddaughter Afua Ananou
The Sims 4 Royalty and Legacy: Household Description
Playful and goofy, the Ananous are a warm and welcoming family—as long as you don’t mind the pranks! But there’s more to them than just fun and games. Ekene Ananou, who spent his life as a modest artisan, is now raising his granddaughter Afua after her mother’s passing. And her father? Well, no one knows who that truly is. Ekene says he was too different from the rest of them. It was a mutual agreement that Afua would stay an Ananou and grow up to have a “regular life”, whatever that means. But many still gossip about the mystery. Some even swear they’ve seen some sizeable donations in the Ananou’s mailbox.

Verdemar
Fierce and untamed like its people, Verdemar is a place of bold contrasts. Rowdy pirates and educated Nobles have both called it home throughout history. What may seem like an odd clash from the outside, is in truth a peaceful marriage of cultures. Indeed it is almost impossible to find a Noble family without pirace ancestors here. To this day this is a place for the adventurous and the outcasts, where the strong and the savvy earn the most respect.
Thebe Family
Members: Cordelia Thebe V and her husband, Thiago Abrantes
The Sims 4 Royalty and Legacy: Household Description
After years of adventures at Sea, Cordelia Thebe V has returned to Verdemar and seemingly settled down. Now happily married to Thiago of the Abrantes Dynasty, she seems to have everything one needs to win the race to the throne. But many do wonder if she’s truly interested in ruling, or if her appetite for adventure would inevitably take over. There’s plenty of eyes on her, thirsty for a potential new Scandal…

Abrantes Family
Members: Ermelinda Abarantes and her daughter, Sofia Abrantes
The Sims 4 Royalty and Legacy: Household Description
After the successful marriage between her eldest son and the heiress of the Thebe family, Ermelinda Abrantes would now be in the perfect position to retire. Unfortunately, her desire for her family to climb up more ranks didn’t really go away with old age. In between the family’s politics and power plays, her teen daughter Sofia often finds herself as a naive observer to Noble life, occasionally picking up court Scandals that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Romualdo
Members: Aloisio Romualdo
The Sims 4 Royalty and Legacy: Household Description
Aloisio learned his greatest life lesson at a young age: the end…always justifies the means. And you know, growing up in Dambele was nice, but he knew he wanted a little more thrill in his life. So he moved to Verdemar, where his father originally came from. Here he quickly noticed that if you’re ambitious, and shrewd, there’s a lot of intriguing work to be found in fighting the inequality between Commoners and Nobles…or in taking advantage of it.

Bellacorde
Class, opulence and elegance. In Bellacorde everything is romantic, beautiful… and crazy expensive. With a long history rooted in chivalry and court drama, there’s no better place to savor every aspect of the elite lifestyle. Just don’t get too carried away and end up doing something scandalous. Gossip is sharp and travels fast here, and in Bellacorde there’s no greater sin than a tainted image.
Capp Family
Members: Tybalt Capp and his three children, Beatrice Capp, Celeste Capp, and Virgilio Capp
The Sims 4 Royalty and Legacy: Household Description
Tybalt certainly got plenty from life—all the Simoleons one could wish for and a dream home to enjoy his lavish parties. Oh, and ever since he ousted his sister Juliette he’s the highest ranking Noble in Bellacorde. But maybe there’s more he could get? After all, who better than a wealthy man like him to be King of Ondarion? There’s only one small stain in his perfect image: his three kids are grown, yet they insist on being chronically single and not settling down! First Beatrice, a diamond beloved across the Kingdom, she could have anyone yet complains about dreaming of something more “meaningful”. Then there’s Celeste, the idealist, who believes the family mottos of honor and chivalry are meant to be taken quote seriously. How naive. And finally Virgilio. UGH. What a disgrace of a son, always criticising high society and calling them hypocrites. Why can’t he just enjoy his money like Tybalt does!

The Sims 4 Royalty and Legacy: Household Description
Following her heart had drastic consequences for Juliette Monty (formerly Capp). Disowned by her old Dynasty, she’s lost her Noble ranking and most of her fortunes. Yet life is so much better with her sweetheart Romeo. It has truly filled her heart to see their son Dante grow up to be as kind-hearted as his father. However—now that her family is rooted and settled—she keeps daydreaming about claiming back all that was taken from her.

The Sims 4 Wonderland Playroom Kit Review
Public Service Announcement – This isn’t a Disney Collab!
We noticed in our announcement post for the newest kits that there was some confusion when it came to The Sims 4 Wonderland Playroom Kit.
This kit is based off of writer Lewis Carroll’s classic children’s novel ‘Alice in Wonderland‘ which has long since been in the public domain. The public domain is consistent of various creative works that have never been and/or have aged out of their respective copyright.
Which is just fancy legalize for—anyone can make content using whatever parts of the story they wish! So, no, this is not a collaboration with Disney using their respective version of ‘Alice in Wonderland‘. The kit is purely based off the completely free-to-use novel that served as an inspiration point for the film, and so many other fun properties (shout out to American McGee’s Alice series).
Official Kit Description
What we’re able to glean from the pack information at a glance.
Use fantastical décor to create a whimsical play space with The Sims 4 Wonderland Playroom Kit. This collection elevates activities, pretend tea parties, homework, or even daydreaming to imaginative new levels with furniture featuring cards, teacups, keyholes, and more flourishes fit for a fable.
Kit Features:
All Frabjous Day – This is a space where imagination can soar, whether kids are playing or learning. With fanciful bookshelves, a matching desk, and a chess set, this playroom doubles as a place for kids to learn and grow.
Curiouser & Curiouser – A delightful stuffed rabbit, hanging top hats, and wall décor featuring dodo birds or grinning cats are just a few of the ways this kit will transport you to a world both familiar and fantastic.

Our Review of The Sims 4 Wonderland Playroom
I am relentlessly delighted with this kit.
It’s the kind of bold whimsical delight that I’ve been wanting out of The Sims 4 for a while and, honestly, it put a big grin on my face. It’s all just so different. When I’ve been emphasizing the concept of kit’s being bold in my last few reviews I feel like I was misunderstood.
I want kit’s that are fun—we’re guaranteed solid, modern stables when we’re given a new Game pack or Expansion, but kit’s, to me, are supposed to be wildcards. Fun, interesting bits of content that throw a wrench in things and make Simmers go “Wow…I need that!”
The Sims 4 Wonderland Playroom Kit embodies that principle perfectly. It’s a fun, niche idea that, truly, I feel is actually quite versatile in it’s design. The kit leaning into the campiness inherent to the theme of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and gives us assets that will be sure to make your Sims’s space pop.
Though, of course, there are some downsides; once again we’ve been given a tea set, and while this tea set is specifically for “pretend” tea. It’s functionally the same as any other tea set in game. I would have wished for a genuine “play” version of one where Child Sims had unique animations acting out a tea party instead of, well, picking up empty cups and drinking from them.
The Dreaming Doormouse item is also another frustration as it’s functionally a large teddy bear that lacks the ability to be hugged and/or otherwise physically interacted with. Which, of course, you could personally give or take it, but the pack seems to imply that a Child Sim could have a tea party with this toy as one would expect a child to…but it doesn’t seem all that possible. Bleh.
All in all? The kit is exceptional if you have a soft spot for camp like myself. Obviously, I am simply here to give you a taster of this pack so you can decide whether or not you want to spend your hard earned money on it, but I would recommend it. It seems like it would pair exceptionally with The Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy as well as having applications as use as a fun public playground in a number of lots we have available in the game.

Is anyone else a little burnt out from releases? It’s almost March, and we got an entire expansion pack, two additional kits, bundle items, and then… two more kits? Overshadowed by the release of Royalty & Legacy, two new kits dropped today, February 26th. One is the Sims 4 Wonderland Playroom kit, with a build & buy catalogue heavily inspired by the classic tale Alice in Wonderland. The other is this one; The Sims 4 Yard Charm Creator Kit, in collaboration with longtime CC Creator and Modder Ravasheen.
Ravasheen, who has been on a hiatus for a period of time recently, is a creator well-known for her highly detailed pieces that fit into the game and offer expansions to existing features and gameplay that are must-haves for so many simmers. Almost all of the objects she releases are functional and take care of pesky annoyances many players have, so after just about a year of being offline, many were surprised to see that the next Creator Kit was, in fact, with Ravasheen.

Our Review of The Sims 4 Yard Charm Creator Kit
As someone who personally loves and adores Ravasheen and has followed her work for quite a few years, this feels like seeing a beautiful endangered bird who had their wings clipped. I think if EA was more willing to do gameplay kits, like Bust The Dust, this would’ve been a very different situation. However with the kit that was released and the objects that came with it, I cannot personally recommend the purchase of it unless you have some very specific wants.
These wants include more plain-textured items that are quite boxy, more outdoor decoration that looks like they were entirely created for the original on-release architecture of Oasis Springs homes, and if you really want to put Simlish numbers on your homes.
While the swatches are consistent among items, the color choices are fairly questionable and make it hard to style it with a lot of things. The kit overall feels rushed and thrown together, like someone got told to throw this together with maybe a month to do so. Some items seem poorly made or just generally do not make sense to the average player, and struggle to fit into decorating the outside of a home, as it is intended to do.
This, once again, is nothing against Ravasheen as a person or a creator. We’ve seen this before with creator kits, where what is released is often nowhere near the personal CC and modded items the creators themselves are able to put out. You can go on Ravasheen’s website and browse her items, and they are often made with such obvious love, care, and creativity that is really not here.
Found out during gameplay that intention of this micro-gallery item is to just… display a small item.
I love the existence of creator kits as a concept because they allow smaller custom content creators to gain wider recognition, console and unmodded players to get access to new and fun items, and for creators to actually get paid for the hard work they put into their creations. However, when you can tell a creator was limited heavily likely based on what EA thought might sell well, or based on graphical limitations imposed on them, it breaks your heart a bit.
Unless you are someone who really enjoys this type of minimalist and modern furniture with interesting palette choices, something you can also find in packs like Spa Day and Adventure Awaits, I do not recommend this pack be purchased. Form your own decision, but for me, it is not worth the price. 3/10.
If you really want this kit, or at least want to check it out, below are links to the various online stores it is available on.

A backroom lot – a place usually found at the back of a building or office block, a place for administrative work. For me, I hear ‘backroom” and I think of the places described in gaming where there is endless space, with yellow walls and no end in sight. Another description? It is a private space. Somewhere for secretive meetings, influential planning and ‘backroom’ deals. But with this game? The Sims 4 Backroom Lots are a new lot type introduced in the latest Royalty & Legacy expansion pack.
The Sims 4 Backroom Lots
So what is a ‘Backroom Lot’?
A Sims 4 backroom lot is two lots in one really, if I had to simplify it. By day, they act like the traditional community spaces that we have all come to know. As long as you use the required items you could build whatever fits your narrative to have as the main cover of your hidden nightclub. The Sims team have designed it that you could have either a library, a museum or gym by day so your sims could read or study, exercise, socialize or hang out. Then by night, they transform into a whole new lively space for Sims to let loose, dance and party the night away.
These new community lots are tied into the new storytelling systems introduced with the new The Sims 4: Royalty & Legacy expansion pack. From secrets and dynasties to scandals – these new backrooms could open up a whole new world of storytelling.
Your prestigious Sims could meet at the neighborhood library during the day for important meetings and formal reading, and sip on fizzy drinks and socialize all night in an underground club when the sun sets – all on the same lot! No need for a separate bar or club!
Why are they so special?
These lots have a dual function, by day your Sims will treat it as one lot and by night a whole new one. Two distinct personalities dwelling on the same lot at the same time. Sounds perfect for avoiding loading screens and having some interesting twists with your storytelling. The correct Sims for certain activities, like bartending, will appear for the evening shift of your Backroom lot.
Visual example
We get our first look at what these Sims 4 backroom lot types are all about with a 20×20 lot in the region of Dambele, in the world of Ondarion. Designed and built by Studio Gabri, the Hardcover Backroom is a slow, calm and collaborative space for studying and reading during the day and for high life partying after dark.
What kind of options do we have?
One could think up all kinds of possibilities when it comes to the options of night and day and the opposite ends of the spectrum that could create. Your imagination is once again the limit here, and if you can’t think up anything that excites you too much you can always turn to the community to see what others have conjured up because we know how talented this community is.
You could build a loud, sweaty, adrenaline induced gym space by day which can then transform into a rowdy werewolf bar by night. A royal bathhouse by day and secret society gathering when night falls. Even having unique and ancient artwork adorning walls and statues towering in hallways, but hidden beneath it all could be a vampire nightclub! Or a whole occult centered spot for all occults to gather… not saying it would work well but you could build it!
Backrooms are perfect for storytelling opportunities like secret meetings, backroom negotiations, scandalous rendezvous and nightlife gossip hubs. Have a hidden romance up your sleeve? Or perhaps a secretive alliance with an opposing royal family? There are options to encourage players to explore their creativity here.
How do they work?
Now we know the where, when and why all we need to know is the how. In your building menu when setting the lot type, “Backroom” is now an option. And as you will see, backrooms come with set requirements for you to have on your lot as well as optional ones. Important to note is the inclusion of essential bar items as well as having the option of a variety of ‘everyday’ objects.
These objects include a bookshelf, art or gym equipment, three of any of these to be exact. This means as long as you have, for example, 3 workout machines or 3 bookshelves or 3 pieces of art, you could make a really cool underground/rooftop/secret backroom for your Sims nightlife to come alive.
Final thoughts
This new lot type is perfect for both builders and players who love narrative and dual-purpose design. Those who want to mix and match an unassuming build with a hidden night life scene, with an eye for design and the mysterious and secretive. Does it work as intended? Sometimes… sometimes Sims just wander around the whole lot not really participating in any one particular activity at a specific time. Bartenders do show up, the lots are functional as both things presented, more Sims do arrive throughout the day… it’s functional. But does it require more imagination and storytelling than what is presented? Possibly, but this is The Sims and this is a life sim game.
In terms of some of the new features, you could have a Sims 4 Backroom lot accessible via a secret passageway, or secret bookshelf. Connect backroom lots or rather just the nightclub section of your build to other nightclubs or Sims 4 backroom lots in your world using secret passageways. Playing more into the expansion pack you could use backrooms for scandalous royal plots, hidden heir locations or secret meet up spots for the elite.
Now the final thing to do is jump in game and start playing! Have you built, seen or played in a specific ‘backroom’ lot that you have loved and can’t imagine your game without? Let us know in the comments down below so we can check it out! Also, what creative spaces are you thinking up for your next backroom?
A new, very limited exclusive sale for The Sims 3 has hit the EA App!
A new notification has popped up on the EA App game launcher a couple of hours ago, promoting an exclusive The Sims 3 Sale for PC and Mac players.
The thing is, this Sims 3 Sale is different to previous style of Sims Sales that The Sims Team has done. For starters, we never had an exclusive Sims 3 Sale get promoted on an EA games launcher since maybe 2014? And usually sales like these go in pair with a catalogue of The Sims 4 DLC, so it’s unknown what EA has planned up with this one.
The Sims 3 Sale Offer
The interesting thing about this sale is that it’s available for an entire month! From February 25th until March 26th, 2026 you get to enjoy a catalogue of Sims 3 games for half the price, including the following offers:
The Sims 3 Expansion Packs (50% off – 10USD)
The Sims 3 Stuff Packs (50% off – 10USD)
The Sims 3 World Packs (50% off – 10USD)
The Sims 3 World Packs – Gold Edition (50% off – $17.50USD)
Could this mean something more?
Sims players over on Reddit have discussed a bit what this Sims 3 sale offer could mean for them. One player stated that it’s weird that the publisher is still putting the same sale offers on a game that’s almost 17 years old. “only half off is insane for a game that old. Newer and better games get put on 75% off more often than sims 3” stated SaveVerris.
Another player mentioned how this could all be just another distraction from talks about the EA buyout. Just giving more reasons for players to spend extra cash on The Sims Franchise. “A lot of people are boycotting ea rn because of the buyout, so I feel like this may be a tactic to try and get people who havent been keeping up to spend money” said Reddit user Scared-Two-5208.
Current rumors about the future of The Sims Franchise predict new methods of monetization for The Sims 4. If we’re already speculating what this Sims 3 Sale could mean in the bigger picture then EA might be giving us just a few more reasons to revisit reliable game classics.

Out With The Old And In With The New – The Sims 4 Lot Replacements Mod Brings New Looks To Base Game Lots!
The Sims 4 was released in 2014, and some players may not know that it didn’t include features such as pools, wedding venues, or the ability to paint ceilings at launch. The Sims team gave us a lot of refresh updates last year; however, only 8 of the occupied Residential lots were overhauled, with the rest of the lots (notably community lots) left out.
Mod creator Kallixer has sought to change that with The Sims 4 Lot Replacements Mod, renovating every single lot in both Willow Creek and Oasis Springs, as well as adding some new lots for players to enjoy. Let’s take a look at some of the highlights and how you can get your hands on this mod!

How To Install The Sims 4 Lot Replacements Mod
You can grab the lot replacements mod over on Kallixer’s Patreon linked below. Unlike a regular mod, this is a world mod, so the install process may be a little different to what you’re used to. We will cover all of this in the installation instructions below, or you can follow the guide included in the Mod installation folder.
To add the items to your game on Windows, follow this folder path: C:\Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods To add the items to your game on MacOS, follow this folder path: Macintosh HD/Users/User/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods
Once you’ve downloaded the files, make sure you have an extraction program installed. These can include 7Zip, Winrar, etc. After that, highlight one or multiple zipped/compressed files and select “Extract Here”. Open the folder titled ‘Mods Files’ and copy all the contents into your Mods folder. You can also sort them into their own folders within your Mods folder, but it is recommended not to nest them too many levels deep, as it can cause longer loading times, and some CC items and mods stop working when too deep within folders.
Now, open the file called ‘World Files’. Highlight all the files and copy them.
Mac: MacintoshHD\User\NAME\Applications\The Sims 4 > Right click on The Sims 4.app and choose Show Package Contents\Contents\Data\Shared\Worlds\Areas
Paste all 12 .world files inside the Areas folder.
IMPORTANT: You will need to start a NEW GAME for lots to be replaced!
Tip: While many creators provide additional files, like .txt/ReadMe, .jpg/.png files, and more possible file types for previews or instructions, it is best practice to not put those into your Mods folder as they can also lead to longer load times and excessive clutter. Creators will often specify any files that need to be put into the folder, along with where, so primarily focus on .package and .ts4script files!
Uninstall
To uninstall, open the file called ‘Kallixer_LotReplacements_World_Backup‘, and copy all contents to the world file.
The Sims 4 Lot Replacements Mod completely refreshes the game’s world-building by overhauling every base‑game lot in newly created saves. It reimagines the interiors and exteriors of existing residential and commercial spaces, modernising their layouts and giving them a much‑needed visual lift. On top of the remodels, the mod also introduces entirely new lots, expanding the neighbourhoods with new places for Sims to live and explore.
TLDR; this mod replaces all default premade lots in Willow Creek and Oasis Springs in every new Save created from the get go, taking the worlds a decade forward.
Over the last decade The Sims 4 have seen many new additions to build mode, both in terms of objects and systems. Using these and the objects that has been there since launch 10 years ago, Lot Replacements updates all lots in Willow Creek and Oasis Springs with every new save created. No loading save files needed!
Every lot has been built with care and with quality and gameplay in mind to best match the world they are located in and being used to play in. Thought have also been put into matching the standard set by the Maxis refreshes and lots in newer worlds. With some room to push past those boundaries (this is a mod after all). While there are a few new lots, most are updated versions of the original and you are sure to spot details, colours and more from the original (The keen eyed will spot that the Ofelia Villa share the outlines of the original 2014 lot for instance.)
And fear not! If you want to find the old builds, you can find them under My Library, for you to place, just like the old Townie lots provided by Maxis.
Utilizing features released post launch; you will find pools, platforms, ceiling paint, bright lights (for those who remember), toddler/infant items, burglar alarms and more. Each world also now come with a Wedding Venue!
While the Townie lots are mostly left untouched, you will find some equipped with burglar alarms and a few small tweaks.
The first thing any player will notice with The Sims 4 Lot Replacements Mod installed is the slightly altered map view. As you can see from the images above, you may notice that some new lots immediately stand out, as well as the Goth family having moved to the larger lot next door in Pendula View. Let’s take a look at each region and see what’s changed!
Willow Creek
When speaking to mod creator Kallixer about the process, they mentioned that they took more liberty with the builds in Willow Creek; therefore, the most noticeable differences can be found there:
Oasis Springs was mostly based on the in-game lots and refreshing them, but for Willow Creek I took more liberty and worked to replicate and bring influences of the types of houses and architectural features you’d find in New Orleans for which the world is based on.
Kallixer
We will go district by district, taking an inside view of each lot!
Foundry Cove
We all know Foundry Cove well. Home to the BFF household, and where many players, myself included, are likely to move when playing The Sims 4 for the first time. The BFF ome is mostly unchanged from the new version we saw patched in with the lot refresh update. Bargain Bend is no longer an empty plot of land, and can now be seen full of Greenery to make it blend in with its surroundings. Streamlet Single has been given a back door and a small back patio area, and fences have been added to the sides of Daisy Hovel and Crick Cabana.
Courtyard Lane
Home of the Pancake family, Courtyard Lane is slightly more upmarket than Foundry Cove, with 4 residential lots included. Even Rindle Rose has been reworked; it now functions as a true starter home thanks to a newly reduced price, making it far more accessible for fresh saves.
Pendula View
One of the first noticeable differences in Pedula View is that Ophelia Villa, the Goth family home, has been moved to the slightly larger 40×30 lot next door, allowing their manor to be bigger and more imposing. On the opposite side of the street sits The Camellia House, a new Wedding Venue built from scratch.
Ophelia Villa (The Goth Household)
New Ophelia Villa (40×30)Old Ophelia Villa (30×20)
Ophelia has a brand new look and location. Featuring 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a study in the attic, this remodelling feels perfect for the Goth’s eccentric style. Also included (and missing from the original) is a small Graveyard in the garden, as seen in previous entries into The Sims franchise.
The Camellia House (Wedding Venue)
The Camellia House sits opposite the original site of Ophelia Villa, and functions as a Wedding Venue, allowing your Sims to host the perfect wedding here. The lot features an indoor wedding space (ideal for those playing with The Sims 4 Seasons), a dining area for the wedding reception, a kitchenette for a caterer to work, and a Bridal suite on the upper floor.
Sage Estates
Sage Estates is no doubt the classiest of Willow Creek’s 6 regions. This area features the Spencer-Kim-Lewis house, which has been left mostly unchanged, and a completely new version of Oakenstead, featuring 3 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
Magnolia Blossom Park
Sitting in the centre of Willow Creek is Magnolia Blossom Park. This lot has been revamped to include new topiary features and a brand new play area for children, in keeping with the lot’s original vision.
Crawdad Quarter
Probably the most exciting revamps of the Mod are found in the Crawdad Quarter! Usually, this region has a library, gym, nightclub, and museum; the nightclub has been transformed into a lounge, and the gym has been completely renovated into a nightclub, giving players two options for a night on the town.
Municipal Muses (Museum)
Municipal Muses, Willow Creek’s museum, has been given a new coat of paint and now includes a realistic art studio on the upper floor. The ground floor features two distinct gallery rooms, one for sculptures and one for classical artworks.
Movers & Shakers (Nightclub)
You probably know Movers & Shakers to be a gym; however, Kallixer has transformed this space into a nightclub, featuring a communal bar area, a dance floor, and outdoor seating spaces for Sims who may want to get a bit of fresh air after all that dancing.
The Blue Velvet (Lounge)
Blue Velvet has always felt off to me. That’s probably because the original layout featured a bar in the back of the venue, meaning Sims rarely congregated in the main space for dancing. The Sims 4 Lot Replacements mod has fixed this issue by focusing the action in the main space, with the addition of a stage for musicians and comedians to perform.
Oasis Springs
Willow Creek has less immediatly noticable chnages; there are some major ones, such as the removal of the museum, the addition of a new wedding venue, and the transformation of a residential lot into a Rental lot. Let’s take a look at each region of Oasis Springs and highlight a few new and improved lots!
Bedrock Strait
Bedrock Strait gets a noticeable glow‑up with Kallixer’s mod. The neighbourhood now features three true starter homes, all priced under §19,000, alongside Johnny Zest’s revamped trailer and a refreshed vacant lot. The updates make the area feel far more cohesive and lived‑in, while still keeping it budget‑friendly for new saves (or those that refuse to give in to Motherlode).
Acquisition Butte
Sitting atop the hills of Oasis Springs is Acquisition Butte, home of the wealthy (and evil) Landgraab Family. While their house remains unchanged, you may notice the absence of the home on the lot called ‘Yuma Heights’. Its removal creates a more cohesive atmosphere, with no clashing architectural styles.
Skyward Palms
Skyward Palms retains the Spanish architectural styles it’s always been known for, this time with the additions of Pools in the gardens of both Rio Verde and Sultry Springside (where the Calientes live). A new feature of Skyward Palms is the inclusion of The Lovey Dove, a Wedding Venue with an outdoor wedding space and an area for a reception. Take a look below!
The Lovey Dove (Wedding Venue)
This brand new wedding venue features a ceremony space that overlooks the lake and golf courses that surround Skyward Palms. The inside space has the perfect space for hosting Wedding receptions, including a table to place a wedding cake, and a kitchenette.
Parched Prospect
As with Skyward Palms, the gardens in Parched Prospect now feature swimming pools, something lacking from The Sims 4 Base Game upon its launch in 2014. Raffia Quinta, the smallest of the four residential lots, is now designated a Rental lot, so Sims can now take vacations in Oasis Springs.
Mirage Canyon
As with Willow Creek’s commercial district, Oasis Springs’ most noticeable differences lie in Mirage Canyon. The museum that once stood here is now home to The Solar Flare longue, and in it’s orignal spot is The Oasis, a public Pool lot. Both Burners & Builders (the gym), and Rattlesnake Juice (the bar) have received minor upgrades to make them feel more realistic and alive. Take a look at the highlights below.
The Oasis (Pool)
As mentioned previously, pools weren’t originally in the Base Game, and the lot type was added in Patch 27 in 2015. This lot features a large pool, with semi-shaded lounging areas, and two changing rooms.
Rattlesnake Juice (Bar)
Ceiling patterns weren’t added to the Base Game until the release of the Horse Ranch Expansion Pack, so the Sims 4 Lot Replacements Mod does a great job of fixing that omission from Base Game lots. The bar area feels much more cohesive and cramped, something the original dive bar lacked.
The Solar Flare (Lounge)
Oasis Springs Lounge doesn’t look all that different from its un-modded counterpart. This new version includes a raised stage and more seating areas for Sims to watch comedy or musical performances.

I previously discussed at great length the history of cars in The Sims franchise and their absence from The Sims 4. It seemed incredibly likely that they would be coming to the game based on the most recent expansion pack concept surveyas a majority of the concepts were based around car gameplay. Now, however, with the rumors that Royalty & Legacy is the last expansion pack releasing for The Sims 4, it seems our car dreams are dashed for good.
If, like me, you’re a big fan of cars in your sims games, I’m happy to announce custom content creators are here to fill the gap, as they always do. Read below to see how players are bringing a grand return of cars to your save files.

The Sims 4 Car Mods
Decorative: Real Car Brands by Lorysims
First up of the Sims 4 car mods is Lorysims with their decorative cars to use in your builds and make the world feel more alive. Are you tired of relying on the same handful of buydebug cars to fill out your community lot parking spaces? If so, Lorysims has you covered with their tremendous collection of real-life car brands. They have everything from Audi and Aston Martin to Honda and Subaru and more.
The catalogue is quite extensive with a plethora of different makes, models, and years and they all look fabulous in game. There are currently 69 different brands to choose from with multiple models for each. I was delighted when I installed a Mercedes-Benz in my game and saw it included a removable top you could choose to place on the car as well. It’s this level of detail that shows how much modders truly care about this game.
Pros: Extensive catalogue of cars to choose from Excellently detailed
Cons: Decorative objects only
Travel to their site HEREto browse the catalogue and install the cars that tickle your fancy.
Experimental: Drivable Cars by Waronkcc
Whereas the last Sims 4 car mods were purely decorative, this next car is fully functional—with some caveats.
Waronkcc has created a drivable car for your sims based on the bicycle animation and gameplay that we currently have. While I give them major props for thinking to do this, it does come with its own issues as you’ll see further down.
Even though it’s based on a bicycle, you are able to have up to four sims sitting in the car together. Sims are able to socialize while in the car as well, so there is a bit of gameplay involved besides being a solely visual experience for storytelling purposes. You’re also able to choose exactly where each sim sits, so you have full control and it’s not random.
As cool as this mod is, it’s definitely for screenshot purposes when telling stories with your sims. When telling your sim to go for a drive, they will take the car for a spin anywhere they are able to travel by bike, so mostly sidewalks and parks. There are several visual glitches as well which are quite a hilarious situation to see.
Pros: Fully animated where sims open the car doors and sit down Sims drive the car around for great screenshots Multiple sims can ride around together
Cons: Follows bike pathing in game Only one type of car
You can find the drivable car at their website HERE.
Nostalgic: The Sims 2 Car Conversion by AlexCroft93
Finally, we have a The Sims 2 car conversion for The Sims 4 by AlexCroft93 that is still a work in progress and not yet released for players. Even so, it looks incredibly promising and exactly what I want in my game.
Someone said… cars in The Sims 4? 👀 Getting closer with my Sims 2 car conversion! What do you think? 🚗
In the most recent progress update Alex has shown the car backing up into the street and sparking the travel loading screen. It might not seem like a lot, but just that small moment adds so much realism to the game. I’m tired of my sims walking off lot and disappearing and walking to other lots in other entirely different worlds. It breaks the immersion completely for me.
Seeing a sim enter their car and pull off lot is something I’ve been craving. Here’s to hoping he’s able to replicate some of the deeper gameplay cars brought into The Sims 2 as well such as car woohoo.
Pros: Adds realism to the game
Cons: Not released yet
Of the Sims 4 car mods, this one is not yet released, but you can follow Alex HERE to see updates as he progresses in its development.
What do you think? Will you be adding any of these Sims 4 car mods to your game? Do you wish cars existed in The Sims 4 like they did in The Sims 2? Do you still have hope they’re coming? Let us know in the comments below and stay tuned for more The Sims 4 Mod spotlights!
In the latest public Patreon post and YouTube video, we got a sense of how Paralives will look and sound when they react to certain situations in-game.
You can have a look at our other Paralives articles and updates here.
Paralives, Voices, and Reactions
We’ve covered lots of the latest updates from Paralives, which you can browse here.
From Storyboard To Performance
With the help of animators Alice and Lena, the team narrowed down which of the animations could pop with some custom voice-overs and compiled a long list to work on.
Using the in-game storyboard features, everything was recorded within the game itself – meaning nothing was done in a vacuum, and all recorded voices were done to match situations appropriately.
Once I had them in video, I just went one by one, recording sooooo many different takes. At first I had to do roughly around 40 takes for each animation to get it right as I wanted. Then I would choose the best 3–4 out of them, edit them and put them in the game as random variations. It was especially fun to perform all the different ranges of emotions our characters can express.
Now, let’s have a look at each of these new character situations!
Hug
Two Parafolk hugging and one patting the other on the back.
Handshake
A nice, smiling Parafolk offers a handshake.
Passionate Kiss
The video shows a Parafolk kissing and embracing the air in front of them.
Getting Intimate
You can, erm, use your imagination for this one.
Smelling Flowers
The Para leans forward and sniffs the flowers in front of him, looking pleased.
Kissing Fail A
This shows how it will look in Paralives gameplay when your character tries to kiss someone, and they’re not receptive.
We see them do a bit of an awkward look down after they get shood.
Kissing Fail B
This time, the situation is reversed, and a Parafolk your character is not interested in tries to make a move.
The video shows the Para lean back and put their hand out, saying ‘nuh uh’.
Successful Proposal
Holding out a ring box, the Para jumps to their feet after their marriage proposal is accepted, giving their partner a hug.
Failed Proposal
After being shot down, the Parafolk close their hands/the ring box, while their partner offers a hand in comfort.
Scared Parafolk
The video shows a Para jump after receiving a scare, looking over their shoulder.
A really nice and simple animation.
Painting On An Easel
We can know now from this video that Paralives will include the ability to paint, a life-sim staple skill.
The animation shown off has a Parafolk standing at an easel, painting strokes onto a canvas.
Sitting on the floor sad
Sad Parafolk will sit on the floor with their knees bent and clutching their head/face.
We have seen how this will look in previous Paralives trailers but it was showcased again in this latest video.
Low Bladder Need
Any Parafolk that need to use the toilet will clutch their lower torso and gently rock/bounce up and down. An easily recognisable ‘I need the bathroom’ dance.
Laughing
The video showed off a Para belly laughing, leaning forwards and slapping their knees in laughter.
Mean Conversation
Mean conversations involve lots of sassy hand waving and snarky tones of voice.
Nice Conversation
A much gentler conversation with pleasant exchanges and more subtle movements.
Yelling Conversation
You can hear frustration and anger in Parafolk voices when they’re yelling at each other, accompanied by lots of hand gestures and turning away from whoever they’re talking to.
Angry Kick
Frustrated Parafolk can kick over objects, judging from this most recent animation showcase.
Sneeze
Parafolk will cover their mouths when they sneeze, so at least they’re hygiene-conscious!
Press Up (Low Skill)
The animation for different activities and skills will improve as your Parafolk does. Because this Para has a low physical skill, they’re struggling with doing these push-ups.
Low Sleep Need
Any Paralives characters who need sleep are going to let you know by yawning and patting their mouth/face.
Low Hygiene Need
Parafolk who have a low hygiene need will sniff their armpit, before looking back up, slightly disgusted.
Calm Down in the Mirror
We will see a Parafolk take a deep breath to calm down, before having a more relaxed pose and facial expression.
Death From Fire
A Para that is dying in a fire will frantically tap the fire out on their arms and body, before perishing and falling to the floor.
Death From Hunger
A Para that is dying of hunger will slowly drop to the floor, clutching their stomach.
Death From Smoke
Paralives characters will also be able to die from smoke inhalation.
Any Para who is dying from smoke will double over, coughing and clutching their stomach, before falling to the floor.
All of these animations and the voice-over recording from Andrei are available to watch on the Paralives YouTube channel.
Bonus Animation: Bug Of The Week
Last night the Paralives Team surprised us with an extra animation of an animation bug they’ve encountered while working on the game. Check it out below:
These new Paralives character situations and animation reveals have us counting down the days to the release of early access!
What do you think about these animations and the development updates for Paralives, and what other animations would you want to see from the team? Let us know below.
The Final Week Of The Lost Legacies Event Has Begun! Here’s How To Complete All Quests & Earn All The Rewards.
Welcome to The Sims 4 Lost Legacies Event Week 4, AKA the final week of quests! Make sure to check out our previous guide for week 3 if you haven’t completed it yet, before jumping into the final set of quests. Players have until March 16th 2026 (subject to extension) to complete all quests and claim all the rewards before they are gone for good. Let’s dive straight in and see how to unlock all of the rewards in The Sims 4 Lost Legacies Week 4!
Table of Contents
The Sims 4 Lost Legacies Event Week 4 Introduction
Another week, another Ondarion family to research and uncover their mysteries. This week, we will be wrapping up the mysteries we’ve been attempting to unravel over the past 4 weeks, and finally learn who the Envoy truly is!. You can check out the new quests and this week’s rewards either by selecting ‘Event’ on the main menu, or by clicking the Event icon in the top-left corner of the screen in Live Mode!
‘Emissary Exposed’ Quest Steps
Having taken the treasure and run off, the Envoy’s motives are beyond suspicious now. Track down their steps, and find out what lies beneath the Envoy’s facade
As with the start of every week, the quest pop-up may take a few moments in Live Mode to show up, but once it does, hit ‘OK’, and you will be given the first task. It seems as though we’re on the move again, and this time we’re heading back to the sight of the intellectual showdown from last week, that being Magnolia Blossom Park. Head to the world map by hitting ‘M’ (PC & Mac) or selecting the phone, and choosing ‘Travel’
Once you arrive, two more goals will be added to the Event UI in the top left of the screen. The first is to ‘Ask About the Royal Envoy’. To complete this, find any Sim in the park, introduce yourself if your Sim has not met them yet, and once introduced, select ‘Ask About the Royal Envoy’ which will appear on the first page of the pie menu. Their response raises even more suspicions!
Our second task at the Park is to ‘Call the Royal Envoy’. Select the phone icon in the UI, go to the social tab, select ‘Chat with’, and find ‘Marina Corsair’, also known to us as the Royal Envoy. There’s no answer, but there is a ringing coming from nearby.
The next step is to ‘Search the Trash’ (ew!). Head to any trash can in the Park, and select ‘Search for Phone’, and your Sim will begin rummaging. It seems the envoy has misplaced her phone…
With the Envoy’s phone now added to our Sims inventory, it’s time to start snooping! Open your Sims’ inventory, select the phone, and choose ‘Investigate Envoy’s Phone’. It seems as though the Envoy is trying to get rich quickly and retire early.
That’s enough time spent snooping at the Park. It’s time to head home. Select the house icon under your Sims’ portrait, or travel home via the map.
The Envoy has been on the move but left traces behind.
‘Ferry Finale’ Quest Steps
With the Envoy’s phone in hand, the clock is ticking, hack it and track them down before they get away!
We need to stop the Envoy before she gets away! Now that our Sim is back home, it’s time to track the Envoy down one final time.
To hack the phone, select it in your Sims’ inventory (a replacement phone can be found by rummaging through the trash again), and select ‘Hack the Secret File’! The Secret File reveals that the Envoy is trying to steal the royal treasures to pawn them off for profit! Perhaps we can find her at the Blue Velvet Nightclub?
And the Blue Velvet Nightclub is where we are tasked with going next! Travel to the map view either through the phone or the map shortcut, and select ‘The Blue Velvet’ in the crawdad quarter of Willow Creek.
Upon arrival, your Sim needs to ask the bartender about the Royal Envoy. Select the Mixologist (usually by the bar) and choose ‘Ask about The Royal Envoy’, and they will tell you that she can be found by the lake, waiting for a ferry, no doubt her escape plan all along.
To find the envoy, head out back behind the nightclub and search the shore for the Envoy. She should appear at one of the fishing spots next to the water.
Our task now is to ‘Surprise the Royal Envoy’. To do so, select the Envoy and choose ‘ Surprise!’. The Royal Envoy doesn’t appear happy to see us, but she explains that she is stretched so thin with her job that she just needs to escape from it all.
Now we are given a choice: either surprise the Envoy, or forgive her entirely! For this guide, I will be choosing to forgive her, what with all that work she does for multiple different families! Select Marina and choose ‘Forgive’ to forgive her for everything, or ‘Report Activities’ to dob her in!
And that is it for The Sims 4 Lost Legacies Event week 4, and the end of the entire live event. Make sure to claim your rewards with your event points, as you watch the Envoy travel off into the sunset.

See quality of life improvements and promises for The Sims 4 in 2026!
The Sims Team and Electronic Arts have just released a brand new official blog for The Sims 4 Quality of Life Roadmap. Revealing plans of action for improving game stability, Sim autonomy and more.
The Quality of Life Roadmap for The Sims 4 is different from the General Franchise Content Roadmap for 2026. This one talks technical challenges and obligations towards making The Sims 4 a more stable and reliable platform.
Let’s see what the roadmap for this year promises:
Quality of Life Roadmap for The Sims 4: 2026 Edition
Over the past 6 months, we’ve been sharing how we’re continuing to prioritize stability, performance, and acting on long-standing community feedback in The Sims 4. In September, we introduced our Quality of Life roadmap and then in November we updated you on progress.
Today, we’re sharing a look at our 2026 Quality of Life initiative focused on improving reliability, and reducing gameplay friction across some of the most frequently discussed areas. It’s about making the game you already play feel smoother, intuitive, and more consistent, based directly on player feedback shared in EA Forums, The Sims Discord, and more.
While the timing and specifics may vary, here’s a look at what we’re planning to focus on over the upcoming months;
Table of Contents
March through August
We’re going to be investigating improvements on these areas:
Sim autonomy: such as Sims choosing inappropriate locations for certain actions, being obsessed with certain objects, or NPC interrupting conversations and other behaviors. Additionally, a large focus on improving Sim sleeping behavior and eyelid animations.
Infant improvements: improving infant and caregiver autonomy, plus ensuring infants receive the correct milestones, interactions, and buffs.
Crashes and data loss: including fixes for black photo issues and the game freezing or crashing.
Our next batch of fixes coming in March is currently being tested by QV, where we’re expecting to ship around 55 fixes, including fixes for 7 of 10 top issues reported by players. Plus, we’ll be updating Sim autonomy improvements based on feedback we collected via our Discord community and votes in the EA Forums. Thanks to everyone who shared their feedback.
Look for our Laundry List in the coming weeks that will list out all the specific fixes!
September through December:
Later on this year, we’ll move our focus to improvements to these key themes, which might include issues like;
Dining & meal behavior: issues surrounding Sims eating and drinking, plus improving the overall dining experience.
Family trees & relationships: strengthening genealogy systems and relationship tracking to protect the important stories built across generations.
But wait, there’s more! We’ll respond to player feedback as we get nearer to this time to decide what to prioritize next.
The Year Ahead
The exact timing of these fixes will depend on our investigations, as some areas require deeper technical investigation. We’ll continue sharing progress, highlighting what feedback has shaped our priorities, and adjusting focus areas as needed.
We will provide updates alongside each release so you can see what has been improved and what is still in progress.
Thank you for continuing to share your feedback and experiences with us. Your input directly informs the work we prioritize.
