The Sims 4 has received a myriad of new items and color variants, all for free with its latest September update.
With the news of The Sims 5 being canceled, many fans of the franchise have felt pretty down about the future of The Sims as a whole – despite some fans feeling relieved – but luckily some positive news has arrived to lift our spirits.
Any Sims 4 player who has been bored of the same old colors will be happy to hear that there are now 650 new color variants to items and furniture. Not only that but there are 30 new items, all for free.
The Sims official account on X shared a video featuring glimpses of these new items that players can look forward to after updating their game. Items such as new doors and archways are here, with a unique color palette to choose from.
The most exciting update is the 650 new variants to already-existing items in the base game. Fans can see fresh swatches of furniture such as the Simplicit-Ease Chair, The Hipster Hugger, and even the Whipped Dream Cupcake Factory.
