Lin-Z,The Sims 4's In-game Alexa-style Assistant

There's nothing like The Sims 4 Get Famous DLC Key to disconnect a bit from reality. But getting away from the increasingly ubiquitous world of smart assistants is a different thing. EA announced this week that the multi-year favorite life simulation series will get its own intelligent assistant.

Lin-Z is very similar to a game version of Alexa. Using an intelligent speaker with a glowing green diamond, the assistant can play music, do trifle, tell jokes, turn lights on and off and subscribe several services, such as food, gardening and repair.

This feature is available this week in The Sims 4 Get Famous DLC Key. Appropriately, the real Alexa also gains many skills related to The Sims 4, including trifle and the ability to play songs from the game's soundtrack. This option is available to users in Australia, Canada, India, the United States and the United Kingdom, for those who wish to further obscure reality.
