Resident Evil Fan Recreates Requiem's Care Center in The Sims 4

Some of the biggest names in AAA gaming have surprised players with official collaborations over the years, and yet, more often than not, unexpected fan-made crossovers have proven to be just as popular. One such example is a recent custom build in The Sims 4 that completely reimagined the Rhodes Hill Chronic Care Center from Resident Evil Requiem in the vibrant world of the titular Sims. It is far from the first time that a fan design in The Sims 4 has caught the attention of online communities, but this Rhodes Center recreation has proven to be particularly appreciated not only for its visual accuracy but for its usefulness to Resident Evil Requiem players.

Despite being over a decade old, The Sims 4 continues to draw in audiences with its DLC pack expansions and community content mods that have added hundreds of new assets to the game. Fans who enjoy meticulously developing their own fully customized builds in The Sims 4 have often taken inspiration from real-world locations, though many also look to pop culture franchises and even other video games to find unique architectural designs to reproduce using the life-sim’s extensive customization tools. While a number of crossover builds in The Sims 4 focus purely on aesthetics, one fan’s recreation of Resident Evil Requiem‘s Rhodes Care Center has already proven to be incredibly helpful for players exploring the survival horror game.

Reddit user stagla shared a gallery of photos showcasing their jaw-dropping custom build of the Rhodes Hill Chronic Care Center from Resident Evil Requiem in The Sims 4, which Resi fans have now begun using as a more detailed map to guide them through the eerie hospital. Stagla painstakingly remade almost every room, hallway, and key location from the first and second floors of the Rhodes Center, including the entire exterior, the dining room, the central hall, the guard office, Grace and Emily’s rooms, the nurses’ station, the East Wing lobby and waiting room, the examination room, the Isolation Ward entrance, the Lead Researcher’s office, the West offices, the East and Southeast stairwells, the Lounge, and the Rehabilitation Ward. Each recreation is instantly recognizable to players who have made their way through Resident Evil Requiem, with everything from flooring, furniture, curtains, and even a typewriter perfectly mimicking their official counterparts.

Both Sims 4 and Resident Evil Requiem players applauded the gorgeous build. Surprisingly, many Requiem fans have voiced a particular appreciation for the top-down views of the Sims 4 Rhodes Center shared by stagla, as they actually make for a helpful 3D map for Resi players to use while navigating through the medical facility. The in-game map for Resident Evil Requiem does not show a full layout of furniture and other obstacles, so stagla’s Sims 4 version of the building can be used by Requiem players aiming to minimize any complications while running around, whether during a casual playthroughs or a trophy-hunting speedrun. Perhaps most useful is the fact that stagla’s Rhodes Center is available in The Sims 4 gallery, meaning Resident Evil Requiem players who own The Sims 4 can do practice runs through the building before tackling the real version in Requiem.

While many Sims fans keep their fingers crossed for EA and Maxis to announce another new entry in the long-standing franchise, others are content to keep flexing their creative muscles with the massive variety of content packs available in the game. From lighthearted creations like Ariel’s castle in The Little Mermaid to more mysterious structures like the Clue mansion in The Sims 4, players have found plenty of ways to make the most of the game, even as it moves closer to another major anniversary milestone. Interested fans can follow along for more fun custom builds in The Sims 4 and any official news on content updates or future releases for the series.
