The Sims 4 burglar.

After revealing the upcoming Businesses and Hobbies expansion for The Sims 4, EA went on to tease the return of burglars – 16 years after they were last seen in the series when The Sims 3 launched – and the infamous NPCs are finally back now alongside some other goodies.

A short clip of the NPCs in action showcases as much, with a burglar breaking into an unsuspecting Sim's house to steal her belongings while the iconic robbery-in-progress music plays. Eventually, the two Sims fight – and later fall in love, because why not?
