This Fan-Favorite Sims Character Is Finally Making an Appearance in The Sims 4

by Jason Feb 27,2025

Attention Sims fans! The infamous Burglar, Robin Banks, is back in The Sims 4! This nostalgic addition to the latest update brings a touch of classic Sims chaos to the modern game, available now on PC and consoles.

Get ready to safeguard your Sims' valuables! Robin Banks operates under the cover of night, targeting homes while Sims sleep. However, she's not averse to a daytime heist, so keep your eyes peeled.

To thwart her, Sims can utilize burglar alarms to summon the police. Even without an alarm, a swift call to the authorities might just save the day. Alternatively, your Sims can take matters into their own hands...

While burglaries are relatively infrequent, activating the "Lot Challenge Heist Havoc" will significantly increase the likelihood of a visit from Robin Banks for those seeking maximum mayhem.

The Sims team expressed their excitement at bringing back this iconic character, noting that Robin Banks is not only here to rob your Sims' homes but also to steal your hearts. This update serves as a fitting tribute to The Sims' 25th anniversary.

Despite being a decade old, The Sims 4 continues to thrive, attracting over 15 million new players last year alone. Its transition to free-to-play in 2022 resulted in a massive surge of 31 million new players, bringing the total player count to 85 million as of May 2024. For now, however, fans will have to continue waiting for news on The Sims 5.
