The Sims 4: City Living is a great expansion pack, but players have experienced quite a few glitches in the game. Most are relatively minor and things that could be corrected in the next update. Many concerns were expressed across multiple threads on The Sims forums and on EA’s website over the past week. However, there’s been no official word on when to expect fixes.
