In the life simulation The Sims 4 on Steam, it becomes bustling thanks to an expansion. A trailer now shows you how your life as a Sim landlord can look.
What is it about? The Sims 4 is a life simulation and already the fourth part of a series that has captivated players since 2000 and draws them into hours of gaming sessions.
Now the new expansion “For Rent” releases on December 7, 2023. Those who purchase it by January 18 will even receive the digital content Street Food
.
A short trailer shows you what the expansion pack is about:
What you can expect: As the trailer shows, you can experience what it feels like to be a landlord and take care of your tenants in the new expansion.
The expansion pack will also bring liveliness to your properties. Because now you have the option to let up to six households live on one property. A household in The Sims 4 can consist of eight people, dogs, cats, or horses.
This means 48 people – or animals – could live on your property. And those who know and play The Sims know that this sounds like a lot of residents to keep alive.
Unfortunately, the Sims are not always capable of doing so themselves. At the end of the trailer, you also see a new way in which your Sims can die.
Death by mold and fungi will also confront you through the expansion. In the trailer, you see one of the residents being overgrown by the disgusting green mushrooms and presumably dying in a painful manner.
Above all, the trailer gives you a taste of the tasks as a landlord. Visit your tenants and catch them dancing, eat lunch together, watch them gossip, or throw a pool party together in the evening.
In the expansion, you seem to be closely connected with your residents and responsible for their needs and well-being.
Players are excited about the new expansion, but can’t resist a few jokes
These are the reactions: We didn’t want to withhold a few funny reactions in the comments via YouTube from you. Because the question here is once again – as often with The Sims – how close is this life simulation to real life?
Because you often stumble across jokes on the internet like: In The Sims you can experience everything that isn’t possible in real life, such as owning a house or paying bills.

I see … the part where landlords really care about the mold problem distinguishes it from real life

Wow exactly what we should have gotten in City Living. Isn’t that crazy?
Above all, many players write in their comments how excited they are not only about the upcoming expansion and the new possibilities but also about the successful trailer and the Southeast Asian concept of the environment.
For example, user gimssong_: As a Thai person, this pack brings me a lot of joy. […] The culture, the food, the building mode looks so good. I can’t wait.
What do you think of the new expansion and the possibility of having 48 Sims on a property? Feel free to write in the comments.
