A new game update is out for The Sims 4, preparing the game for the new Cozy Celebrations event, that is scheduled to start today.
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: 1.111.102.1030 / Mac: 1.111.102.1230 / Console: Version: 2.04
Holiday Greetings Simmers,
It’s that time of year once again when we prepare to celebrate the holiday season, and we are coming with an update to spread some holiday spirit in The Sims 4. Along with the festive Sims Delivery Express drop which comes in today’s update with no additional download required, we will be kicking off a brand-new, very festive themed Event shortly after the update is available.
Happy Holidays to all Simmers around the world!
- The Sims Team
What’s New?
This season, the Sims Delivery Express brings you two new items along with culturally inspired Create a Sim assets and recipes. Your Sims can enjoy the charming Cozy Hot Cocoa Tray, offering six delightful hot drinks, and the Comfy Blankets Quilt Stand, which adds a cozy touch to any room. Dress your Sims in Romanian-inspired clothing for the whole family, plus a new hair scarf and a full-body outerwear coat.
Enjoy creating two new dishes with your Sims! Mămăligă is a beloved traditional dish enjoyed in many Eastern European countries, while Mucenici is a festive treat that brings families together to honor the past and welcome spring.
Starting today, not only will you have access to some new festive Sims Delivery Express content but we are starting the Cozy Celebrations Event with three weeks of all new rewards and some global tradition based quests to take part in. One of the quests will even have you make use of the Cozy Hot Cocoa Tray from the Sims Delivery Express to help complete your Event track so be sure to grab one of those from Build Mode.
