Time to make a quick backup of your save files, mods & custom content, because surprise! It is patch day today! Today’s patch is actually rather exciting as it adds more CAS items to your catalog, free of charge. AND next to that a lot of Base Game items from the Build & Buy catalog received more color swatches.
Free Samples of the Upcoming Fit Kits
On the 5th of October two more CAS focused kits will be released for The Sims 4. Both of them will be inspired by modern day fashion from different parts of the world. Good news for those who do not like to wait, if you update your game now you’ll get a little taste of what the kits will have to offer. In total, four full-body outfits, three hairstyles, a bottom piece for masculine Sims, a tattoo, a bracelet and a turban have been added to the game. The hairstyles are also available for toddlers and children.
Build & Buy Color Swatches for the Base Game
A lot of the Base Game assets from the Build & Buy catalogs received more matching color swatches in different wood tones, neutrals and simplistic color options. Think of curtains, kitchen appliances, wooden floors, outdoor plants and even ALL windows that are currently part of the Base Game.

Update 9/21/2021 – PC: 1.80.69.1030/Mac: 1.80.69.1230/Console: Version 1.48
Hello Simmers! We hope this Game Update finds you well!
As Summer has ended and the Pumpkin Spice season starts (you all know I’m ready for my pumpkin spiced coffee!), our Art Team has a treat for Simmers that love to build. If you are not an expert builder that is quite alright, I’m not either, but I do enjoy trying a few styles and choices so no worries in that regard.
Thanks again for your continued support, we truly appreciate it! Chaus!

By now, all of you know of two kits we are bringing to you as part of the Season of Selves – Fashion Street and Incheon Arrivals. As part of this update, we added a few Create A Sim assets to the Base Game for everyone to enjoy. These additions are inspired by the new looks featured in these two new kits, so tell us what you all think!
We have two full-body assets inspired by the Fashion Street of Mumbai for both Male and Female Frames. We also added a bottom piece for Male Frame Sims as well as a headpiece, a tattoo, and a bracelet!
From the streets of Seoul we wanted to share two full-body outfits that are effortless and comfortable. We also included two new hairstyles to complement your Sims inspired by some of the popular hairstyles you would see on TV or socials.
But visuals are clearer than my awkward writing, so I will add below a screenshot with a pretty good view of these assets. Enjoy!
What’s New?
149 assets – 1,200 vaaariants
149 assets – 1,200 variants to enjoy so dear
149 assets – 1,200 vaaariants
How do we tell you about these… easily?
In pictures, in writing, in cups of coffee.
In gameplay, in video, in pictures, in laughter.
In 149 items – 1,200 variants – how do you measure this new thing we did with this in hand?
How about you just show? Yes, how about you just show?
Don’t measure at all, just show.
Our art team took over this Game Update and they have added about 1,200 new variants (yes, you read me correctly, about 1,200 variants) to 149 Base Game items in Build Mode. The Art Team’s vision was to complement and enhance these assets so Simmers have more choices and have more use out of them. Also, why not?
I will list the names of the assets, with images, that we have added variants to. Huge props to SimGuruBeth for providing these fabulous screenshots! In these screenshots you will notice some arrows and green dots, those represent the new additions.
