The Sims 4 has revealed a new wedding extension pack with a trailer showcasing queer joy.
The trailer for the My Wedding Stories game pack follows the story of two female friends who fall in love.
One of them jilts her groom at the altar because they’re not compatible – but it doesn’t end badly – as he goes on to walk his former fiancée down the aisle.
We then see the women’s relationship develop as they go on a honeymoon and return to their wedding venue as elders, all of which can be recreated with the new extension pack.
This is sound tracked to the classic wedding song “At Last” by Etta James, but a Simlish version, of course.
Fans have said they “cried” watching The Sims 4 trailer. (YouTube)
The My Wedding Stories game pack is due to be released on 17 February on a number of platforms and will be available from Amazon here.
