March Patch Speculation 2026

You may be able to reactivate both the secret child scandal and the forged family connection scandal by researching your Sim's family tree or other people's family trees through the family register item. It's in the Life Event Object category. I haven‘t tested it but I assume that‘s what the item is for.

I hope they fix the issue with missing pets in  new saves.

I would like the scandals to be updated to last longer than seven days. Having a secret child or an ongoing affair isn't a scandal that goes away in real life. I can understand some of the lesser ones not lasting longer, like not making it to the restroom on time. 

And please fix infant needs going to red when I follow another Sim in the family to work or school. There's other Sims there to take care of the infant.

No predictions. I am just hopeful that the bugs I found making the game unplayable will finally be addressed. I quit playing Sims 4 because it was too buggy. I highly doubt my longest save will be savageable.

I just hope they fix the excessive flirting. Even loyal non flirty sims will do it without being in a flirty mood and married. It's very annoying. 

Well any help/fixing autonomy would be welcomed. But sadly they didn't hint it was autonomy based on traits/likes/dislikes :(
