This Fan-Favorite Sims Character Is Finally Making an Appearance in The Sims 4

Attention Sims fans! The notorious Burglar, Robin Banks, is back in The Sims 4! This nostalgic addition to the latest update brings a familiar level of mischief to PC and console players.

Robin Banks, a staple of older Sims games, is ready to test your Sim's security systems. She operates under the cover of night, targeting homes while Sims sleep, though she's known to attempt heists even when Sims are awake. Stay vigilant!

To thwart her, install a burglar alarm. Triggering it guarantees a swift police response, leading to Robin's arrest and the recovery of your stolen goods. Alternatively, Sims can attempt a citizen's arrest, but speed is key.

Burglary events are designed to be relatively infrequent, but for those craving chaos, activate the "Lot Challenge Heist Havoc" to increase the likelihood of a visit from Robin.

The Sims team expressed their excitement over Robin's return, highlighting her potential to both rob and charm your Sims. This update is a fitting tribute to The Sims' 25th anniversary, offering a blend of nostalgia and new gameplay.

Despite being a decade old, The Sims 4 continues to thrive, attracting over 15 million new players last year. Its transition to free-to-play in 2022 resulted in a massive surge of 31 million new players, bringing the total player count to 85 million as of May 2024. For now, however, there are still no plans for The Sims 5.
