The 'Family Legacy' Build
The 'Family Legacy' build in The Sims 4 focuses on creating a rich history for your Sim's family through various activities and expansions. This includes exploring new worlds, engaging with unique gameplay mechanics, and collecting items that contribute to a lasting family narrative. The upcoming Life and Death and Royalty & Legacy expansion packs will further enhance this playstyle.
To build a strong family legacy:
- New Worlds and Expansions:
- The Sims 4 Life and Death expansion releases on 31 October 2024, adding a spooky new World, playable Ghosts, and two new Careers.
- The Sims 4 Enchanted By Nature allows Sims to live out Fairy dreams in the world of Innisgreen, inspired by Ireland and Irish folklore.
- The Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy Expansion Pack is available, enhancing legacy gameplay.
- Collectibles: The Sims 4 Base Game features 13 types of Collectibles. Each is found in different ways, with in-depth information on prices for every type of collectible available. As Expansions and Game Packs add more types to Collect, this list will expand.
- Outdoor Retreat adds Insects to the game.
- There are 35 plants in the base game (though only 32 are needed to complete the collection and one of which does not show in the household collection), 3 in Get to Work, 10 in Outdoor Retreat, 9 in Jungle Adventure, 4 in Vampires (one of which does not show in the household collection), 4 in Cats & Dogs (none of which show in the household collection), 10 in Seasons, 1 in StrangerVille, 4 in Island Living, and 14 in Cottage Living (the oversized crops are not included in the household collection) bringing the current total to 94, but only 84 show in the household collection. They are collected through finding them in the wild, grafting them together to earn rare specimens, or randomly through various seed packets which can be purchased on a computer, in build and buy mode, or by selecting a garden planter.
- Building Tools: A new platform tool is available in The Sims 4. Players can also use rental lots in any world now by changing lot types of builds in manage worlds.
