Players can purchase, rescue, and breed horses.
And just like with Sims, cats, and dogs, horses also have unique traits that can be chosen like Brave, Defiant, Fearful, and Mellow.Ĭreating horses isn’t the only way to get your new four-legged friend either. They’re fully customizable within Create-A-Sim, where you can choose from over 30 real-world horse breeds, like the Fresian, or you can play around with all of the details like coat color, body mass, and mane and tails to create your own custom horse. Horses, just like cats and dogs before them, are considered household members, so they will take up one of the eight household slots that are available in each Sim house (there are currently no plans to expand the number of household members in The Sims 4). The real stars of Horse Ranch are, of course, the horses themselves. And while visiting those Sims on their home lots is an option, there are plenty of ways to meet them out and about, including a bar where line dances take place, the equestrian park, and even just by moseying around town or trail on horseback. Players will find a busy social scene within the world, with a number of new Sims who call Chestnut Ridge home. The team behind Horse Ranch pointed out that the neighborhoods were made to have these larger spaces specifically for Sims and horses to explore together, even noting that players will really want to take time to explore the trails to discover activities and to train their horse riding skill, newly available with the pack. One thing that stands out in Chestnut Ridge was the fact that there are a ton of large, open spaces that are perfect for horses to roam around. Players who enjoy building on larger lots will be excited, with a new 50 by 50 lot and an empty 6 by 64 lot available in Galloping Gulch and Rider’s Glen respectively. Just as we would expect from a ranching expansion, Chestnut Ridge takes heavy inspiration from American Midwest landscapes with lots of rock outcroppings, dusty trails, and a long, winding river.Īnd while we weren’t able to look at every different lot (sections in each Sims world where players can build and design homes or community buildings,) there are a total of 13 lots in Chestnut Ridge to be found. There are three neighborhoods of the world to be found with plenty of horse-related names including Galloping Gulch, New Appaloosa, and Rider’s Glen. The world introduced in Horse Ranch is called Chestnut Ridge.
For new and long-time players alike, the pack looks to expand on the previous iteration of The Sims horses, opening the door for some relaxingly chaotic ranch storytelling. Horse Ranch brings with it a focus on ranch life and connecting with horses in new ways, through bonding with your horses in order to compete together and giving players the chance to build out the ranch of their dreams.
