How to Become a Werewolf in The Sims 4: Werewolves — Tips and Tricks

A major update, the Werewolves, was recently released for The Sims 4, introducing a new region and occult characters to the game. In this guide, we will tell you how to become a werewolf, describe their abilities, characteristics, and passive skills.

In The Sims 4 Werewolves, there are several ways to become a werewolf. Here is the complete list:

Create a Werewolf Sim

The easiest way to play as a werewolf is to create a werewolf Sim, as this requires the least effort. Open the character creation menu and customize it to your liking: the werewolf's appearance, fur color, ear shape, and face.

To do this, click on the cross in the lower left corner of the screen. Hover over the sub-item Add Occult Character and select Add Werewolf. Nothing complicated.

Be Born from a Werewolf Sim

When two werewolf lovers decide to have offspring, chances are, the children will also become werewolves upon reaching adolescence. A child born to werewolf Sims in their teenage years can indeed adopt the werewolf trait. This mechanic works similarly to vampires.

Like vampires, all werewolves have the right to use the cursed bite, through which they can turn other Sims into werewolves. However, only powerful high-ranking creatures possess such talent.

If you manage to find such a creature and get infected, your Sim will transform into a werewolf after some time. But first, you will have to go through three stages:

Exploring Underground Tunnels

This method is similar to the previous one, but to get bitten, you need to explore the underground tunnels in the Moonwood Mill location. The only entrance to the tunnel is located behind the bar and the Sharp Fang bunker.

After visiting such a place, players will have several different options to choose from: some will lead to unlocking research, others to fights. Thus, you can infect your Sim to turn them into a werewolf.

For Sims to first transform into werewolves, they must embrace their animalistic instincts, namely the hungry rage that runs deep in the blood of every werewolf and pushes them to the edge, turning them into a ferocious beast.

Rage envelops werewolves like a warm blanket. As the rage increases, their animalistic instincts become stronger until they finally take over.

The increase in rage is constant and accelerates thanks to certain triggers. It's worth noting that each character may have different triggers. Here is a general list:

As the rage of a Sim grows, the heroes become more emotional, and it becomes easier to anger them. If this happens, you will get the effect Angry or Aggressive. The level of the effect can increase or decrease depending on external factors.

Eventually, their eyes turn red, and when the rage meter is filled, the heroes transform into werewolves. At such moments, it's best to keep the character away from others, as this can lead to undesirable consequences. In the early stages, werewolves will not perform normal actions and become uncontrollable. The best way to avoid conflicts is to lock the Sim in a room where they cannot harm others. In this case, only furniture, items, and other objects that come to hand will suffer.

Werewolves in The Sims 4 have many cool abilities, but unfortunately, the really good skills have to be unlocked independently. To do this, you need to increase the level of the werewolf Sim and earn as many skill points as possible.

There are a total of five ranks:

There are several different ways to do this. The simplest is to interact with other werewolves in Moonwood Mill. Here roam both regular werewolves and werewolf leaders, such as Christopher Wolf. Such connections will allow you to level up much faster and unlock cool skills.

Interactions should not only consist of conversations. There are many other interactive actions you can use. For example, you are free to fight with other werewolves or mentor those who are less experienced than you. Eventually, you can read books and learn more about werewolves.

Like vampires, werewolves have their own unique ability tree. These skills can be unlocked using skill points, which are given as experience is gained.

However, there are also hidden abilities. These cannot be unlocked using ability points, and instead, players must make their Sims do certain things to unlock them.

Below we have listed such skills:

Best werewolf abilities:

Books about werewolves in the Werewolves update will help you increase your rank and unlock hidden abilities. There are several ways to find such literature:

Here's a short list of literature that will help increase the werewolf rank and gain additional skill points:

If for some reason you do not want to become a werewolf, then you must hurry immediately after the bite. You will have very little time before the sim completes the transformation and turns into a beast.

There are two ways to avoid transformation:
