An extension that turns up the heat
If romantic relationships, encounters and the possibility of going a little further than a simple flirtation already existed in the adventure, The Sims 4 wants to move up a gear with its next paid content. The expansion pack Crazy Love has just been announced and as its name suggests, it will highlight love. True love. Well, according to your rules. After the theme of renting, we are moving on to something completely different.
From casual romps to romantic evenings and steamy nights, this new pack brings new possibilities for your Sims. There are a whole range of new items and new outfits to wear, from costumes and other fun things to spice up your evenings, as well as new interactions with a new kiss, a sensual dance and three new places to make love.

We are also told about romantic dynamics that will develop between the Sims, namely:
- The “Healthy” dynamic, which corresponds to two Sims who truly love each other and who show it through their friendly and romantic actions.
- The “Steamy” dynamic refers to a relationship between two Sims based on physical intimacy.
- The “Tense” dynamic involves two Sims who still have a romantic connection but are not comfortable together and interact in mean ways.
- The “Unpredictable” dynamic refers to romantic relationships with alternating arguments and harmony; these Sims can be in the middle of a conflict, then kiss and make up a minute later.
The arrival of a dating app
Among the new features is a dating app. Called Cupid's Corner, This one takes the concept of a Tinder to find people to chat with. You can make your profile, organize dates, choose a place and activities, and try to find other single Sims to hope to find love or simply have a good time in bed.
Who says new expansion, also says new place. Welcome to Ciudad Enamorada, a new city described as ideal for romantic encounters. It is divided into three neighborhoods, with Vista Hermosa, the central neighborhood with its walking areas, Plaza Mariposa which is located in a residential suburb and Nuevo Corazón, with its skyscraper area and quiet places.
