The Soul’s Journey helps you craft meaningful life stories for your Sims and is part of The Sims 4 Life & Death Expansion Pack.
A Sim’s Soul’s Journey is divided into a Bucket List and Unfinished Business. They can tackle their Bucket List from the Young Adult to Elder life stages. If your Sim dies and becomes a Ghost, their Bucket List becomes Unfinished Business, with new goals available for them to complete in the afterlife.
Goals on both a Sim’s Bucket List and Unfinished Business can be created by your Sim using the computer or a journal. Or, they can be automatically created over time based on who they are as a Sim.
Completing goals from your Sim’s Bucket List and Unfinished Business fills up the progress bar in their Soul’s Journey. You can also fill the progress bar by completing Aspiration tiers, Midlife Crisis (from Growing Together), New Years Resolutions (from Seasons), and fulfilling Wants.
A Sim’s Soul’s Journey is broken down into different tiers, with each one earning them different rewards.
The following tiers and rewards only unlock once your Sim has died and become a Ghost.
Bucket Lists become available when your Sim ages up to a Young Adult, they aren’t available for Infant, Toddler, Child, or Teen Sims.
Your Sim can have up to four goals on their Bucket List at the same time. These are divided into different categories.
Some goals are Pack-specific. For example, the I want to climb a mountain! goal is only available to players who have the Snowy Escape Expansion Pack.
You’ll only get goals from the Packs you own, so if you don’t own Snowy Escape, this goal won’t be visible to you.
Bucket List goals can be created in multiple ways. If you want to set your Sim’s goals, get them to create a Bucket List using the computer or a journal. You can also let the game automatically set your Sim’s Bucket List goals. These get created through gameplay. When the game auto-creates Bucket List goals they’re based on the type of Sim they are, using their Traits, Aspiration, career, relationships, and lifestyle.
If you choose to create your Sim’s goals using the computer or journal, there are three Bucket List interactions available:
For example, if your Sim has the Romantic Trait they’re more likely to get a goal from the I Want to Get Busy! category.
The Bucket List can be found in the Aspirations Panel. You’ll find this in the bottom right of Live Mode.
From here you can check in on what Goals your Sim has, and your progress through their Soul’s Journey. Hovering over the Soul’s Journey tiers will show which rewards unlock as you progress.
When your Sim completes a goal from their Bucket List, they’ll earn progress in their Soul’s Journey. The Soul’s Journey bar will fill up, and they’ll celebrate and have a positive Moodlet.
Sims won’t immediately get a new goal added to their list. Instead, they can add one using the methods above like the computer or journal, or by just playing through the life of your Sim!
If your Sim becomes a Ghost, when they die they’ll have new, Ghost-specific goals called Unfinished Business. Becoming a Ghost unlocks new tiers and rewards in their Soul’s Journey.
As a Ghost, they’ll have a choice to Move On to the afterlife, continue life in their ghostly form, or they can be reborn and return to the world of the living.
Unfinished Business functions in the same way as their Bucket List; the game will auto-create some Goals for your Sim through gameplay. For example, if your Sim had a nemesis when they were alive, the game may set a goal for them to scare this enemy as a Ghost before they Move On.
You can also manually add goals and any Bucket List goals they didn’t complete as a living Sim are added to this list for them to complete as a Ghost.
There are some goals that Ghost Sims can’t complete, like having a child, but they’ll now have access to Ghost-specific goals that focus on tying up loose ends before they move on to the afterlife. For example, these could be renewing vows with their spouse as a Ghost, or comforting their living family with their Ghost powers.
Unlike a Bucket List, Unfinished Business is available to Ghost Teens. This isn’t available to Child Ghosts, but you can age a Child Ghost up to a Teen Ghost in the Baleful Bog in Ravenwood’s Mourningvale neighborhood.
If your Sim completes the Dreams Fulfilled tier in their Soul’s Journey they’ll have the option to be reborn. If your Sim has unlocked the Burning Soul Trait they can choose to carry over physical attributes, reward Traits, and special relationship interactions to their next life. Without this Trait, they can be reborn but they won’t remember anything from their past life.
The Burning Soul Trait is awarded to a Ghost Sim after fully completing The Big Picture tier of their Soul’s Journey. This Trait will follow the Sim into their next life if they choose to be reborn and comes with several perks.
There are two ways for your Sim to experience rebirth. For both of these your Sim will need to have completed the Dreams Fulfilled tier of their Soul’s Journey to be reborn. To get all of the rebirth benefits they’ll need to have completed everything up to The Big Picture tier of their Soul’s Journey.
Once you’ve selected rebirth for your Sim the game will automatically open up Manage World. From here, choose which Lot you want your reborn Sim to live in. You can choose an unoccupied Lot, which will give you the normal starting funds at the start of a new game. Or, you can have your Sim move into an occupied Lot and merge with another family.
Create a Sim will automatically open once you’ve chosen a Lot. From here you have a few options.
Note: The Rebirth Counter keeps track of how many rebirths a Sim has had. You can find this in the top right of the Soul’s Journey Panel once a Sim becomes a Young Adult again.
When your Sim returns to the world of the living, they’ll still have some links to their past life.
These include:
