SIMS 4 requires lower specs demand and three new game packs on Windows computers upon release. However, sources claim that The SIMS 4 won't feature toddlers or pools on the initial version of the game.

No Toddlers and Pools

According to a tweet @SimGuruGrant, The SIMS 4 will not feature toddlers in the game which somehow defeats the entire legacy of life simulation gaming experience that previous SIMS game series offer.

@thatsimsgirl We hear you loud and clear on this one :)

Produced Graham Nardone somehow confirmed the absence of toddlers in Twitter by explaining that babies and toddlers were not combined and they are distinctly different.

On the official Web site of The SIMS, produced Ryan Vaughn revealed that some aspects from The SIMS 3 are not appearing on the upcoming game series and focuses on powerful building and editing tools.

"While it's not possible for us to include every single feature and piece of content we added to The SIMS 3 over the last five years, we've added features that you've asked for and that offer a whole new intuitive and fun way to build," Vaughn post at the site.

Even without the toddlers crawling inside houses, The SIMS 4 offers the following new features for the Build Mode:

- Wall Height Adjustment

- Dynamic Foundation

- Sizing

- Smart Windows

Three Premium Packs

Polygon reported that The SIMS 4 will feature three new packs for players who have premium membership and exclusive access to upcoming game packs and in-game contents. The three premium game packs are focused on holidays containing exclusive items such as spooky costume, camping in the great outdoors and toast to the New Year in style.
