A new, small game update is now out. It’s supposed to fix a few errors regarding the ongoing “Grim Reaper’s Event”, as well as bringing the items from the first ever login event to the base game.
If you have auto updates enabled in Origin’s “Application Settings”, the game will auto-update once you open Origin. If you have auto-updates disabled, you will need to manually update by clicking the game in your library.
To ensure your game is up to date, check the game version found in Documents > EA > The Sims 4 > GameVersion.txt. Your game should now read: PC: 1.109.207.1020 / Mac: 1.109.207.1220; Console: 2.00.

Today’s update is intended to address some issues players encountered when participating in the Reaper’s Rewards Event, as well as a special update regarding reward items from the Happy At Home Event that ran earlier this year.

Bug Fixes & Updates
Happy At Home Event / Base Game
We changed how Event rewards are stored with our September 18 update. After this change, we learned that some Simmers are missing rewards they earned through the Happy At Home Event we ran earlier this year.
To make sure everyone gets the rewards they earned, we’re granting players across all platforms the Happy At Home Event rewards with today’s update.
All of the Happy At Home Event rewards will be added to the game permanently with this update for all players, with no action needed from you. Need help finding them in-game? Read our guide on how to find your rewards in Build Mode and Create a Sim.
Build/Buy Mode:
- Bullseye Dartboard
- Casual Comfort Pillow
- Compact Bar
- Guerdon Goods Mini Fridge
- Guerdon Goods Vending Machine
- NanoCan 2.0
Create a Sim
- Athleisure Wear
- Night Sky Layered Necklace
- Practice Makes Perfect Sim Trait
- Serenity Hairstyle
We don’t expect this issue to impact the Reaper’s Rewards Event, as those rewards will be linked to your EA account rather than stored only on your device. We don’t plan on adding those rewards to the Base Game at a later date. The addition of the Happy At Home Event rewards with today’s update are a one-time make good to thank you for your patience as we continue to work on, and improve, Events in The Sims 4.
