It is similar to [[mood]], but is more easily affected by in-game events and social interactions with other Sims. [[Moodlets]] influence the current emotion of a Sim. The current emotional state of a Sim is depicted in the lower left corner of the screen while playing. It is also noted that some objects in-game can affect the emotions of some Sims,<ref name="TS4 Gameplay trailer" /> though the Sim has to already be already feeling in a particular way in order for an object to affect them emotionally.<ref>[http://simsvip.com/2014/01/08/sims-4-colors-objects-clothing-emotions/ "The Sims 4: Colors, Objects, Clothing & Emotions - SimsVIP"<!-- Bot Generated Title -->].

There are several ranges of emotions. Sims may reach one stage of an emotion, and then progress to a second, more extreme stage of the same emotion. For the case of Anger, Embarrassment and Playfulness, they can then progress to the third stage (Enraged, Mortified and Hysterical, respectively), which is an even more extreme stage that can lead to emotional death. For instance, a Sim that is ''embarrassed'' may become ''very embarrassed'', more embarrassment leads to ''mortified''. Sims that becomestay extremelyin that extreme emotional state may eventually sufferdie anfrom it.<ref>[[Emotion#Emotionalhttps://twitter.com/SimGuruLyndsay/status/476086028936019968 death|emotional"Lyndsay death]Pearson on Twitter: ".@jupik12 I don't want to give everything away, but there are multiple types of emotion deaths.""<!-- Bot Generated Title -->].

Sims can die as a result of being in an extreme emotional state for a prolonged time. There are several emotional deaths, but not every emotional state has an associated death. Currently, the only deadly emotions are ''Mortified'', ''Enraged'', and ''Hysterical''. Teens and children cannot die from emotional death, as children cannot die from anything other than fire and drowning. Teens presumably lost the ability to die from emotion after the release of [[The Sims 4: Parenthood]] to prevent them from dying during their mood swings, wherein they sometimes become Enraged or Mortified.

When a dangerous emotion is reached, the little outline of the circle which appears on the second level of an emotion, will fade in and out. After they die and become ghosts they remainwill infrom theirtime Mortified,to Enraged,time depending on the emotion death will receive (+2) buff. Sims within proximity of the ghost will occasionally receive Playful or HystericalAnger (+1) statesbuff.

The corresponding cheat buffs (+500 to Playful, Embarrassed or Angry for 20 days) are no longer available due to the '''sims.add_buff''' cheat being removed along with other cheats in the patch of June 26, 2018. They can, however, be re-enabled with a [https://www.patreon.com/posts/cheats-fix-get-19645059 mod].

A Sim with (+15) ''Playful'' moodlets (including boosts from the ''Happy'' emotion) becomes '''Hystericalhysterical'''. When a Sim is in a state of hysteria, if they continue doing funny actions, they can die of laughter. This can be avoided by calming down in the mirror.

**Play in the Tub (+2) (available when already playful)

A Sim with (+8) ''Embarrassed'' moodlets becomes '''Mortifiedmortified'''. When a Sim is Mortified, they run the risk of dying from Embarrassmentembarrassment after a period of time. This can be avoided by telling a self-depreciating joke or hiding from other Sims as quickly as possible. It can also be avoided by selecting "Give Yourself a Pep Talk" at a mirror.

** ''The Sims 3,'' Rewardsrewards lamps obtained from The Sims 4 website can also be used; these work the same as MySim trophies.

** If a Sim survives being eaten from a [[Cowplantcowplant]], they can milk the cowplant to get a potion which gives them the emotion they had before they got eaten. If a Sim gets devoured by a Cowplantcowplant, another Sim can milk the Cowplantcowplant to get ''Essence of Life'' which makes the Sim instantly happy as well as adding a few days to their life.

** Painters can paint emotional paintings based on their emotion, for example, a [[Confidentconfident]] Sim can draw a Confident painting, which emits a Confident Aura, similar to ''[[The Sims 3]]'' Rewards lamps.

** A Sim with the 'Expressionisticexpressionistic' trait (obtained by completing the 'Painter Extraordinaire' aspiration) can paint any emotional painting no matter what their emotion is.
