• Maxoids have been showing off swimming pools in some closed events. Here's an article by Game n' Guide: http://www.gamenguide.com/articles/13882/20141008/the-sims-4-news-pools-coming-in-november-pee-sit-or-drown-in-them-and-return-as-water-logged-ghost.htm?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=t.co Basically they revealed that:

1. Pools are created by picking shapes and dropping them into the world (pretty much like balconies, from what we got).

1. As expected, swimsuits are a new addition to the game.

1. Sims can sit on the edge of the pool and can also pee in there.

1. Like in the previous iterations of The Sims series, sims can drown in a pool if walls are placed around it.

• The Sims 4 will be coming for Mac. Expect more details to be revealed soon.
