Good news for all those who play The Sims 4 to actually build beautiful houses and not just trap your Sims in the swimming pool without a ladder – the Gallery is now cross-platform and available on consoles!
The Sims 4 is still a charming life simulation, with a better interface and some new possibilities, but so many elements are missing compared from The Sims 3 (hello DLCs!) that all the fans will be disappointed. I first played The Sims 4 years ago, when it was first ported over to PS4.I played it for a few weeks and then moved onto other things, having seen it all before – or so I thought.
The Gallery is a way for The Sims 4 players, or Simmers, to share their Households, Lots, and Rooms for everyone else to download and use in their own games. Now that it's cross-platform, you can create a Sims family on PC and someone across the world can enjoy your Household on their Xbox One.
Perhaps the best news is that the Gallery doesn't require you to have a PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live Gold subscription to access it. As long as you have a working internet connection and an EA Account, you're good to start creating and sharing. Epic games pc.
If you're playing on console, you'll need to link your PlayStation Network and/or Xbox Live account to your EA Account. You can find instructions on how to do that below:
- Option One: Automatic
- Boot up The Sims 4 and you should see an invite to link your EA Account to your relevant console account.
- Option Two: Manual
- If you can't find the invite or aren't receiving the prompt, simply pop over to Game Options > Other. You should find the option to link your account(s) there.
Linking your account will unlock Grim's Ghoulish Guitar for your Sims to shred on in-game.
You can also opt out of cross-platform sharing if you so wish. If you disable cross-platform play, you'll only be able to see creations from other Simmers on the same platform as you – so if you're on Xbox One, you'll only be able to see creations from other Xbox One players.
You can also block the Gallery entirely if you don't want to see anyone else's creations or share your own. If you block Community Creations, the Gallery will be inaccessible to you, but you'll still be able to access My Library, which is your own personal and private library for all your own creations in The Sims.
If you're playing on console, you also won't be able to access creations that have used CC (Custom Content). PC and Mac users can continue sharing CC creations as normal. Some creations may also be inaccessible if you don't have the corresponding DLC.
Now you know all that, it's time to get building. Simply make sure your version of The Sims 4 is up to date, link your EA Account, and get stuck in. You can also check out the latest console patch notes here. Happy gaming!

- EA and Valve have struck a new partnership to bring EA's best (and worst) games back to Steam.
- Consequently, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order will be available on Steam at launch, with titles like The Sims 4 and FIFA 20 migrating in the future.
- Unfortunately, EA is involved, so there's a ridiculously large catch.
After rumors started circulating last week, courtesy of some telling file package changes, Electronic Arts (EA) has formally announced a partnership with Valve that will bring Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, The Sims 4, FIFA 20, and other EA titles to Steam.
EA Access Subscription Leads The Charge

The publisher isn't merely bringing its catalog back to the digital storefront, but a new subscription service, EA Access, will feature on Steam from Spring 2020 alongside individual titles.
In a press release penned for the occasion, the company says,
'EA Access is the first and only gaming subscription service available on Steam.'
The service is entirely separate and distinct from the publisher's existing subscriptions, notably the Basic and Premier Origin Access tiers. We don't yet know whether any of the features will carry over, nor do we have an idea of pricing.
EA promises access to what it calls The Vault – essentially, curated access to EA's back-catalog. Alongside is 'a medley of awards' including discounts on non-Vault games and in-game rewards for EA's biggest releases.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, The Sims 4, & Other Major Titles

To kick things off, EA is making Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order available on Steam in line with a worldwide release on Nov. 15. Pre-orders are currently available.
From there, EA plans a staggered release of titles on the platform.
'In the coming months, players on Steam will also be able to play other major titles like The Sims 4 and Unravel Two. Multiplayer games—like Apex Legends, FIFA 20, and Battlefield V—will become available next year.'
The staggered release is presumably to stress-test the behind-the-scenes integration of the Origin game launcher into Steam.
On that topic, EA stopped short of describing how this would work. The publisher points out that players on both Steam and Origin can play together in multiplayer games. Such functionality suggests the usage of the same launcher. As such, we imagine downloading and installing the controversial Origin client is a prerequisite for games bought via Steam.
The Steam listing for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order appears to back this up alongside noting the need for an EA Account.
