Creating a custom date in The Sims 4 Lovestruck is simple and fun, and you can put everything together in just four steps:

  1. Create a Date on Cupid’s Corner
  2. Select the type of date
  3. Select the venue
  4. Pick the activities

Start by using the Create a Date feature, which is exclusive to the Lovestruck pack. Your Sims can plan dates with new matches from Cupid’s Corner or with Sims they’re already in relationships with. Don’t worry; the base game date option is also still available.

When planning your date, make sure check the Cupid’s Corner app to view saved matches of Sims your Sim already likes. You can add them to contacts or invite them on a date directly from here. Additionally, you can also invite other Sims to join your date for a polyamorous experience, which was just added. What follows is all about your preference, from where you want to take your date—and what you want to do with them.

1) Date types

Beyond just simple normal dates, you can now go on a range of different ones, whether it’s platonic, romantic, or making up for past relationship slip-ups. Here are all the types of dates you can create:

  • Get to Know You Date

  • Romantic Repair Date: Perfect for recovering low Relationship Satisfaction.
  • Friendly Hangout: Ideal for platonic activities.
