Hi @vyvexthorne,

I'm sorry to read you are having issues to save, please, join this thread to discuss that problem: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Consoles/Sims-4-won-t-save-on-Xbox-and-PlayStation/td-p/6414358

Answering your second question: to delete a specific save, just overwrite the save you don't want with another one 🙂

Thanks!

Thank you for the reply. 🙂 Overwriting does indeed work.. but at the same time I don't really need a bunch of extra saves taking up room for no reason. A nice "delete save" option would be the ideal. Especially on the xbox where everything saves in one lump save block. Not sure if it's a problem on the ps4 since it actually has individual save files that you can manually manipulate.

  Since I don't have it on ps4 and can't look.. Have you checked the save files directly on the hard drive to see if you can delete them individually from there? Settings/Storage/System Storage/Saved Data/Sims4. I"m just curious if it stores the saves as a lump block or as separate files on the ps4.
