The Sims 4 has been delighting players for a decade, yet many fans nostalgically recall the iconic burglar from the earlier installments. One of the joys of playing The Sims has always been dealing with unpredictable incidents, whether it’s a kitchen blaze or a rogue meteor crashing through your house. Among these memorable mishaps was the burglar, who is now making a grand return via today’s free update.
For a long time, fans of The Sims series have been clamoring for the burglar’s comeback. This mischievous element was a staple in all three of the earlier games, so much so that many players resorted to fan-made mods to bring the burglar back into their gameplay.
In this update, the burglar character has been humorously named Robin Banks—a cunning thief who prefers to strike under the cover of darkness. If your Sim is more of a night owl, there’s a chance to catch the thief in the act and call the cops, hoping for her arrest. Players can also invest in burglar alarms, which can be upgraded for better efficiency in foiling these late-night intrusions. Developers have shared that there are 50 unique ways Sims can respond to a burglary, from attempting to brawl with the burglar to cleverly using a freeze ray to stop them in their tracks.
But don’t fret—players can choose to approach Robin Banks with charm instead of confrontation. Your Sim can forge a friendship or even romance with her, eventually adding her to their household. Should Robin become a roomie or meet an untimely end, she’ll be succeeded by another Sim sharing her adventurous spirit.
The game’s compatibility with other expansions is unexpectedly extensive. For instance, those with the Cats and Dogs expansion can simply use a dog to scare Robin away. If you’re playing with a werewolf, it might intimidate her into a hasty retreat, while a vampire Sim might view her visit as a tasty midnight snack. This kind of crossover is part of an exciting trend in The Sims 4. The game’s next expansion, Businesses and Hobbies, will also showcase similar interactive elements with previous expansions. Mark your calendars for March 6, when Businesses and Hobbies is set to launch. Enjoy the added layers these updates bring to your gameplay experience!
