ICYMI: 'The Sims 4' Includes a Polyamory Feature

Launching July 25.

Launching on July 25, The Sims 4 game will include a “new Romantic Boundaries system that will allow you to customize your Sim’s experience with boundaries and jealousy,” the brand shared. The polyamorous feature allows users to “define how [their] Sims approach romantic relationships in terms of physical and emotional romantic exclusivity.”

Introduced as a “Lovestruck Expansion Pack,” lover girls can “create their Sim’s dating profile on the Cupid’s Corner app – and match with other Sims. Players will determine how to navigate the dating scene, find out what other Sim’s Turn-ons and Turn-offs are and then cater to them, learn how to become a Romance Consultant and so much more.”

Recently, the platform partnered with model and creative, Winnie Harlow, to include Vitiligo skin Sims. Continuing its mission of diversity and inclusion for all, the launch included 61 vitiligo pattern variants. “As you cycle through the shades and change from warm to neutral to cool, the color of your Sim’s vitiligo will adjust to change with it,” the gaming company shared.

Stay tuned for more updates.

While you’re here, here’s an expert guide on when you should open your relationship.
