Sims 4 developers have collaborated with famed custom content creators to bring 21 pieces of fresh furniture, fashions, and features to the Sims 4.

This long-awaited announcement came just an hour before the official Twitch premiere of Sims 4’s 21st anniversary surprise, While Simmers knew something was a-brew at Sims headquarters, none were quite sure what to expect from the new collaboration.

Custom content creators have long enriched the Sims by creating their own clothes, furniture, and more to the game, but these additions until now were limited to PC players, leaving console players sadly out of the loop. However, by working alongside EA, custom content creators are able to bring versatile looks and styles to all Simmers.

The fresh content is available NOW for all players!

A Quick Overview 

As the Covid vaccine rolls out worldwide, humanity is beginning to see the light at the end of the proverbial tunnel. While much of the northern hemisphere braces beneath a last ditch winter chill, change is coming.  As we hold on to hope that things will get better, even the Sims community shows signs of a brighter future.  This week, Sims FreePlay launched their Art Deco update; Sims Mobile plunged into a player-pleasing party update, and Sims 4 honored its Black players in a sensational Black History Month tribute.  

On February 15th, Sims FreePlay launched their roaring twenties Art Deco live event: Belle Hotel.  During this event, players send their Sims to craft candles, glassware, jewelry, and pottery in return for ritzy black and gold prize packs.  These packs include such twentieth century digs as geometric, gilded wallpaper, gleaming gold light fixtures, luxurious quad-sized windows, fresh jazz instruments, elaborate black bars, and more.  The grand prize for this sumptuous event is the Belle Hotel, a multi-story lot replete with a reception desk, lobby, outdoor pool, hotel rooms, and a grand gold dining room perfect for swinging jazz performances. 

Sims Mobile began the week with a fresh Wumples, which offered players a laundry list of tasks to complete in return for two new children's clothes options - a t-shirt for both sexes and a skirt for just female children. 

But the biggest news of the week by far was a long anticipated gameplay update to Mobile parties.  Until now, mobile parties have been limited to player "main lots," but after February 16th, players gained the ability to throw parties on any lot they choose.  Game Changers collectively demonstrated this ability with a series of "alt-lot" parties which also showed off upcoming anniversary event prizes.  Simmerdown Mal's Edgewater Quay party, for example, featured the DJ BobPlum Booth and karaoke machine.  

To continue highlighting this fresh feature, Sims Mobile rolled out a new anniversary-themed competition on Twitter.  To win prizes such as SimCash, a luminous dance floor, or diamond-studded head gear, players should follow the Sims Mobile on Twitter, take pictures of their partying Sims, and then upload them to Twitter with the hashtags #TSMHouseParty and #EAGiveaway.  Don't forget to tag the official Sims Mobile account! This competition closes Friday, February 26th.  Sims Mobile will announce the winners on March 5th.  

If this were not enough, Sims Mobile Game Changers also dropped more information about the upcoming Sweet Treat Showdown.  This event, triggering on February 22nd, will offer cake-baking players party items like a disco ball, heart-shaped glasses, a fashionable men's military-style jacket, a smoke machine, a colorful DJ Booth, a new banged hairstyle, and a karaoke machine.  

Players can look forward to two new Wumples events on the horizon: Wumples Wishlist #51 will offer a poster and a glass of strangely colored milk as prizes, while Wumples #50 will offer two snowglobes. 

Bugs addressed and squashed this week included a strange phenomenon in which the Sims Mobile app mysteriously disappeared from the United Kingdom app store.  It has now reappeared, much to the relief of thousands of UK players. 

​In a heartwarming tribute to its incredible Black players, the Sims 4 team highlighted several game changing people of color this week to celebrate Black History month. Among the honored were Xviva, Spring_Sims, XMira, EbonixSims, Foreign Simmer, Oshin, and many others. The developers also reported that they finally pinpointed the issue plaguing console skin tones. They expect a fix for the blotchy, reddened tones in March. Sims 4 players can look forward to a special anniversary gift from the Sims team, in collaborating with custom content creators, February 25th.

That's all for now, but keep it locked on the Simmer's Digest website for more detailed information!

Until next time, stay safe, love your loved ones, and happy Simming.
