Presentation

About this game

Do it all for the plot. Build a powerful Dynasty, become a Noble, and avoid Scandal in The Sims 4 Royalty & Legacy Expansion Pack. Experience storybook moments — like Dueling with swords or kissing frogs — as you climb the royal ranks of Nobility. Noble or not, you can start a Dynasty. Reap the perks of Prestige while maintaining Unity, or embrace the drama of family friction. Any rise to power risks a fall from grace — beware of Scandals, like forbidden romances or secret children! Start a legacy, carve your own regal path, and rise to glory.

Gameplay highlights

Your Family, Your Legacy

Your Family, Your Legacy

Your Family, Your Legacy - A Dynasty dominates through devotion to shared Values – like being Passionate or Mysterious. Build up Prestige, maintain Unity, and be the powerhouse family everyone wants to keep up with. Any Sim can become Head of their own Dynasty, and as Head they have the power to choose their Heir or declare family members Outcasts. But remember, elevated status means elevated drama: an Outcast might rebel, or an Heir might be overwhelmed by pressure. Relationships can get complicated, and how it all plays out is up to you.

Claim Your Crown

Claim Your Crown

Claim Your Crown - Many worlds can be kingdoms, but only one Sim can wear the crown. Make decisions that will win you the hearts of the people – or court the approval of other Nobles with choices that benefit them. Favor with either group can earn you higher titles, but rivals may block your path to the top. Encourage them to abdicate, face them in Duels of Swordsmanship, or go the cunning route and expose their Scandals. How you ascend is up to you – there are even Powershifts pulled right out of fantasy stories. Woo a Noble Frog, dance in dazzling glass shoes, or claim a mythical sword as part of your path to power.

Do It for the Plot

Do It for the Plot

Do It for the Plot - Forbidden loves, secret children, and froggy kisses are just a few situations that can become saucy Scandals. When a Scandal erupts, it can impact a Sim’s relationships, career, Dynasty Prestige, and even Noble Favor. A Noble’s title could be put at risk! Power and prominence are fickle things, and sometimes a fall from grace is needed to make a change. When faced with a Scandal, Sims can apologize, atone, wait it out, or deny everything.

Your Kingdom Awaits

Your Kingdom Awaits

Your Kingdom Awaits - Ondarion is a world with rich history, powerful Dynasties, and complex relationships where opulence and culture are around every corner. Sims can live in palace-like residences, hone their Swordfighting skills, and even attend Grand Balls. There are three distinct neighborhoods: warm and inviting Dambele, lush and vibrant Verdemar, and elegant, romantic Bellacorde. Each neighborhood has its own Nobles, and the throne of Ondarion is empty. The stage is set and the stories of ascension are yours to tell.
