Whether your Sims are cruising around on their hoverboard or jetpack, traveling via monorail or tube elevator, or trying out attractive futuristic hairstyles and clothing, there's a whole new world to experiment with and explore. Create and customize Plumbots with Create A Bot, add them to the household, and program them with a wide variety of trait chips that will alter their behaviors! Jump between present and future worlds at will, and experiment with how your Sims' actions in the present can have surprising effects on their own legacy, their descendants, and even the way of life for future Sims!''

Features

 * Take Your Sims to the Future - For the first time in The Sims franchise, you can play with life in the future! Enter the Time Portal and take your Sims to a new world that exists hundreds of years in the future where they can explore a whole new way of life.


 * Experiment with Future Technology - Witness how new technologies for entertainment, transportation, or the home will reinvent the way your Sims eat, sleep, travel, socialize, work, and have fun. Your Sims can learn how to use this all-new technology in the future and take their Advanced Technology Skill back to the present to get the most out of these objects there!


 * Change Life in the Future - Your Sims’ present-day actions will lay the groundwork for their future legacy. Your Sims can even meet their future descendants and change their destinies by actions taken in the present! With opportunities to alter the fate of the future, will your Sims strive to create an ultra-utopian society or a world of chaos?


 * Tell New Stories with the All-New Create-A-Bot - Build and customize a variety of Plumbots and add them to your Sims’ household! Create unique “trait chips” that you can then use to program your Plumbots. With the ability to hold up to seven trait chips, these Plumbots are bound to act and behave in surprising ways. What would happen if you combined the Robonanny and Sinister Circuits chips?

Or, go way out to explore the vast wasteland – who knows, your Sims might find rare relics and perhaps clues as to what happened to the ocean!

Details

 * Time Travel
 * Emit Relevart, the time traveler, will appear in the main world. He will give Sims the almanac of time and leave his time portal for Sims to travel to Oasis Landing, a futuristic sub-neighborhood.
 * Sims can travel to a normal, dystopian, or utopian future. Only one of these future events may occur, as the players can only choose one of them at a time.
 * Players can use the time almanac to trigger any of the events. Alternatively, Sims can convince other Sims in the main world to manually trigger the future event.
 * While Sims travel to the future, the time in the main world is paused. Sims can stay in Oasis Landing indefinitely.
 * Pets cannot travel to the future with the time portal.
 * Sims are able to revert the future by mastering the Advanced Technology skill and resetting the time continuum on the time portal, or by purchasing the Time Remote Control lifetime reward. Reverting will completely erase any progress made in the future.
 * There are many futuristic items in the future, including dream pods, bot workshops, food and drink synthesizers, holographic computers, sonic showers, pneumatic elevators, jetpacks, and hoverboards.
 * Hover cars are the main form of transportation in the future. In addition, Sims can use a hoverboard instead of walking, or a jetpack to instantly travel to their destination. Sims can also use ZEPHYR, a public transportation network or monorail rabbit hole, similar to subways.


 * Almanac of Time
 * The almanac of time can be viewed to keep tabs of the future progress. The almanac appears in Sim's inventory. There are 3 tabs in the almanac.


 * Events tab
 * There are 3 types of future events: normal, dystopian, or utopian.
 * In the dystopian future, Oasis Landing appears as a desolate environment, and experiences apocalyptic events such as meteor strikes.
 * In the utopian future, Oasis Landing is lush and colorful, Sims will also walk joyfully.


 * Descendants tab
 * Sims can view the information about their descendants who will live in the future.
 * The Sim's appearance and traits will have an impact on what their descendants will look like and how they will behave. A Sim's traits may even affect their future family's worth.
 * For example, the size of a descendant's family depends on a Sim's positive or negative traits, as well as how many Sims live in the household.
 * A Sim's traits which determine finances, such as Workaholic or Ambitious, as well as their owned properties, can also impact the descendant's family funds.
 * The descendant's existence doesn't always stay the same. Events that occur in the present may change the descendants as well, such as changing traits, occult type, or household size.


 * Legacy Statues tab
 * Sims in the future can have their own legacy statues by performing certain tasks in the present.
 * There are 5 different legacy statues that Sims can earn: The Lustrous Entertainer, The Pioneer of Plumbotics, The Renowned Philanthropist, The Time Keeper, and The Trendsetter.
 * Entries in the time almanac explain how to achieve each of the legacy statues.
 * Achieving a legacy statue will give unique rewards to the Sim, and a Sim can achieve multiple legacy statues at once. Future Sims will also applaud the Sim when they are in the future.


 * New life state - Plumbot
 * Plumbots can be created in a bot workshop with high enough Bot Building skill. They can also be purchased from the bot emporium in Oasis Landing.
 * Regular plumbots by default don't have any specialties. Sims with high Bot Building skills however can create trait chips for the plumbots to give more advanced functionality. The capacity of a plumbot's trait chips can be increased by upgrading the plumbot's trait chip slots.
 * Plumbots that are created with higher Bot Building skill are worth more, and their maintenance and battery power drain at a slower rate. Sims can also sell their plumbots to earn money.
 * Plumbots can enter plumbot competitions at the plumbot competition arena in Oasis Landing.
 * There are 3 types of plumbot competitions: BattleBot competition, Bot Building competition, and EmotiBotting competition. Each type has 3 levels: beginner, advanced, and international.
 * Some competitions require certain trait chips and skills. Make sure the plumbot fulfills the requirements.
 * It is possible to create Plumbots resembling Servos.

 * The boom in Bot technology has left many Sims fascinated and intrigued by these complex machines. While many Sims are at home with their organic bodies, some would prefer to be a Bot instead.
