In the latest update from the world of The Sims 4, a quirky glitch has emerged, courtesy of the newly released Goth Galore Kit. This piece of paid downloadable content (DLC), designed to immerse players in a gothic aesthetic, has unwittingly introduced a peculiar bug that’s been raising eyebrows – quite literally.
Players have reported a strange anomaly exclusive to the Goth Galore Kit. Upon dressing their Sims in a specific hoodie from the kit, they’ve noticed a bizarre transformation: the Sims’ eyes enlarge significantly, giving them an almost cartoonish, googly-eyed appearance. This oddity, while amusing, has left many in the Sims community puzzled and intrigued.
A Female Sims-Exclusive Quirk
Interestingly, this graphical glitch seems to have a gender-specific impact, only affecting female Sims. When the hoodie is removed, the eyes revert to their normal size, adding to the mystique of this unexpected feature.
Players have shared their experiences online, with some initially suspecting a mod or an eyeshadow effect was responsible for the change, only to realize it was a bona fide bug in the game itself.
