A decade after its initial release, The Sims 4 continues to evolve with exciting new updates. The latest patch brings significant enhancements to the base game, setting the stage for the upcoming Enchanted by Nature expansion pack. This update focuses on improving player experience with inventory management upgrades, architectural innovations, and comprehensive bug fixes.

Among the most notable additions are glass walls - a highly requested feature that complements the existing glass roofs. This architectural element opens new possibilities for greenhouse construction and modern home designs. Players can now also adorn their rooftops with select plants, adding another layer of customization to their builds.

The inventory system has undergone a complete overhaul, introducing multiple sorting options including by price, quality, and rarity. Spoiled food now appears with clear visual indicators, preventing accidental consumption by Sims. The Notebook interface has been redesigned with better organization and new discovery badges to track collection progress.

Quality-of-life improvements extend to household collections, which now feature a more intuitive interface with progress tracking. Console players will appreciate the enhanced controller support, particularly for navigating menus with analog sticks.

The update addresses numerous gameplay issues, including indoor weather anomalies, stretched child models, and various expansion pack-specific bugs. These fixes aim to provide a smoother experience as players prepare to explore the magical world of fairies in the upcoming Enchanted by Nature expansion.

With the expansion launching on July 10, this update serves as the perfect preparation for players eager to dive into the new content. The fairy life state, apothecary system, and mystical Innisgreen location promise to bring fresh excitement to the long-running life simulation game.
