So when is this patch scheduled to hit? Well, the answer is complicated. This has been a problem for a very long time. The Sims 4 originally launched in September of 2014, and I’m writing this at the end of 2020.
If you want to build a diverse world in the current version of The Sims 4, you’re going to have an uphill battle ahead of you - one that’s full of compromise and frustration.īut with an upcoming patch, skin tones are being addressed.
There’s very little variety in darker skin tones, and many of the ones that do exist are blotchy and weird-looking. The Sims 4 is finally addressing one of its most persistent and annoying issues: Getting a character with the exact skin tone you want is an exercise in futility.
