The Sims 4 Updates with Aptly Named 'Romantic Garden Stuff' Pack

The Sims 4 is updating for the Hallmark-iest of holidays, this time with the theme of a beautiful garden party. EA has released a new trailer to celebrate the update and show off all of the new additions, from items, to clothes, to all-new gameplay elements. Get ready for something kind of mushy, a little cringey, but generally very beautiful when you move all of the people out of the way of the scenery:

The aptly-named Romantic Garden Stuff Pack gives players the chance to build a vast and beautiful garden, with gorgeous additions like fountains and wishing wells, then place their Sims into the setting to see how things go. The wishing well in particular is a fairly interesting new addition, offering over 50 outcomes for any Sim who dares to toss a coin in. New clothes and gameplay elements have been added to the game, opening the players' home habitats up and broadening gameplay as the game continues a seemingly-endless expansion (as all Sims games do, of course)

The Sims 4 Romantic Garden Stuff Pack has a mixture of flowery flora and marble furnishings that enable you to build new styles of parks, or to revitalize your home's yard. Do you prefer a manicured lawn with trimmed rose bushes and flowers entwined around a wooden trellis? Perhaps instead you want to create your own Victorian inspired botanical gardens, replete with spitting lion fountains and stately Doric columns? All of these items and more empower you to create lush landscapes for romantic moments like dates, proposals, and weddings – or simply to enjoy a lovely afternoon outdoors.

Your Sims can make use of a new Fountain of Gluteus Maximus which serves as far more than a pretty backdrop. Sims can sit along the fountain's edge and cuddle, even flicking water on each other in a lighthearted show of affection. When feeling especially whimsical they can climb inside to play around, or take it a step further and engage in a spirited bout of splashing with a friend. If feeling particularly mischievous, Sims can go as far as adding soap to the fountain and enjoy watching the water churn into a froth of bubbles.

The Sims 4 Romantic Garden Stuff Pack releases on February 9th.
