If your own romantic life wasn’t enough to manage, The Sims 4 has even more options for players to explore with their virtual selves after the Lovestruck expansion pack arrived at the end of July.
The Sims 4 Lovestruck expansion pack is the vehicle for these new romance relationships, which aren’t just limited to the usual 1:1 steady commitment. Players can even learn to become “romance advisors” for other Sims.
The expansion pack introduces “Ciudad Enamorada” and allows players to set up a dating profile that will match them with other Sims. “Players will determine how to navigate the dating scene, find out what other Sims’ turn-ons and turn-offs are, and then cater to them.”
Interesting things: Pina colada, getting drenched in the rain.
Dislikes: Yoga, healthy food.
Single Sims will also get “a new Singles Hangout Lot feature that will attract available Sims who are single and ready to mingle.” The official blog post notes, rather, uh, suggestively, that these hangouts are “places like the dive bar Laguna del Abraza, the romantic park Mirador del Amor, or even during a sweaty workout session at the gym, Suador.”
All of this is facilitated (in the world) by the Cupid’s Corner app. On the one hand, it’s great that Electronic Arts is promoting players’ sense of ideal romance in this way. On the other hand, get on the dance floor and start kissing people, you silly, lustful child! Sheesh.
When will The Sims 4 Lovestruck Expansion Pack launch?
OK, just kidding. The appeal of a game like The Sims 4 is really the idea of living your best life, so of course the romance options are going to reflect that.
You can see the lovebirds get together in the Lovestruck expansion pack launching on July 25. The Sims 4, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary in September, is available on PlayStation and Xbox (via backward compatibility), as well as Windows and macOS.
