The biggest feature in the update is UI scaling, allowing players to customize the scale of UI and text depending on playing with a computer monitor or television.

Another UI feature is a news tab now on the game’s main menu, showing information about new updates, releases and free content.

As for new content, The Sims 4 players with the Holiday Celebration Pack now have more winter clothes for children and toddlers for free. Meanwhile, the Hip Hop Radio Station is now available to everyone, regardless of owning the Get Famous expansion pack.
