In keeping with Sims 4 tradition, the new High School Years expansion and its accompanying free update broke a whole lot of features in both the base game and other expansions. A new patch has now been released that addresses some of the biggest bugs, including one that caused rapid aging, and another that made sims want to date their family members.

　　The infamous incest bug appeared in the game as part of the wants and fears system, which has been re-introduced from past Sims titles. An unrelated but similar bug arising from the High School Years update, which saw adult sims tagging teenagers in inappropriately flirty Social Bunny posts, has also been fixed.
