The Sims 4 continues to modernize the franchise with new content, while remixing some old features. You can control the life of your Sim, whether you want to use cheats and immediately build a mansion or start a legacy family that goes on for generations.
Polygon’s The Sims 4 guides will help you get started if you’re new to the franchise and will still serve as a good reference for Sims veterans who might just need a page of The Sims 4 cheats or The Sims 4 achievements and trophies open in front of them. Our Sims 4 beginner’s guide will get you on the right path early.
For those looking to expand their game with DLC, we’ll help you distinguish between the many Sims 4 Expansion Packs. We also curated a list of Polygon’s favorite Expansion Packs, Game Packs, and Stuff Packs, if you’re looking for a second opinion on which to cop.
If you don’t want to throw down some cash to add things to your game, we also have guides on where to find custom content (CC) and mods, as well as how to install CC.
