Winter activities

- Ski
- Possible excursion to the top of Mount Komorebi. Excursions are social events and you will be able to follow your sims climbing the peaks. They work a bit like excursions in the jungle.

Gameplay
- Possibility to force Sims to remove their shoes before entering their home.
- Creation of platforms inside
- Children can wear a uniform to school in Mount Komorebi

Lifestyles
- "Lifestyles are an expression of your sim's behavior and habits over time"
- Styles shown in the trailer: Sedentary, energetic, tactile, comfortable indoors, comfortable outdoors, fast food lover, health food lover
- Other lifestyles are hidden
Feelings
- Another new feature is that the feelings echo the memories of your Sims. If your Sims do an activity that made them happy, they may miss it after a while. Conversely, running into an enemy may influence your Sims' emotions.
Create a Sim
- Two aspirations: one for extreme sports and one for visiting Mount Komorebi.
