A skilled Sims 4 enthusiast has recently showcased their stunning rendition of Kevin McCallister’s iconic house from the beloved film, Home Alone. This impressive build is sure to get anyone into the festive spirit, especially since Home Alone remains a timeless classic during the holiday season.
Even though Sims 4 has been around for over a decade, its community never ceases to amaze with such spectacular creations. The game has consistently provided players with the tools to realize their wildest dreams since its debut in 2014. Its incredible longevity speaks volumes about its appeal to diverse types of gamers. Within the realm of life-simulation games, Sims 4 remains unparalleled, especially in its building capabilities. Recently, a creative player even reconstructed Red Dead Redemption 2’s Rhodes, highlighting how the game serves as a canvas for fans to integrate elements from other franchises they love.
On YouTube, user create4sims has uploaded a detailed video walking viewers through the process of recreating Kevin’s house from start to finish. Throughout the video, they explain the thought process behind each design choice, showing off an extraordinary level of detail. The house feels authentic and lived-in, staying true to its cinematic counterpart, even though every detail was carefully placed by hand. However, for those hoping to see Kevin’s infamous booby traps, you’ll be disappointed as they’re missing from the recreation.
One of the most impressive aspects of this build is that create4sims managed to achieve this without relying on any custom content—everything used can be found within the various official game packs. For those interested, the video’s description provides a list of the packs used. Sadly, this particular build hasn’t yet been uploaded to the Sims 4 Gallery, but there’s hope it might be available in the future for eager players wanting to live in Kevin McCallister’s world.
It’s somewhat surprising that EA hasn’t announced The Sims 5, especially considering the time that has passed since the last major release. Earlier this year, they confirmed there are no current plans for a new installment, as they’re focused on expanding Sims 4 further. Although many expected the next chapter in the franchise, players can rest easy, knowing that Sims 4 continues to thrive and evolve, ensuring it remains active for years to come.
The Sims 4 invites players to unleash their imagination by crafting unique worlds that echo their personal style. Downloadable for free, players can tweak every aspect from characters to architecture. You get to shape their appearances, personalities, and wardrobes, and decide their daily lives. Build dream homes for your Sims and spruce them up with your favorite furniture and decor. Explore varied neighborhoods to meet other characters, learn their stories, and unearth vibrant locales full of adventure. Whether experiencing life’s highs and lows or crafting stories that parallel real-life scenarios, the game offers endless possibilities for telling your tales.
Released in 2014 by Electronic Arts, Sims 4 runs on a proprietary engine and is rated ‘T for Teen’ due to its crude humor, sexual themes, and violence. It’s compatible with Steam Deck, though cross-platform play isn’t possible among Xbox, PlayStation, and PC versions. Despite these restrictions, the enduring appeal and continued updates make it a staple choice for simulation game enthusiasts.
