Vitiligo is a medical condition that causes areas of skin to lose their pigmentation, leaving pale patches on a person's body. Though it doesn't have any immediate negative consequences for their health, vitiligo can give patients a striking or unusual appearance, which may have a negative impact on their social life and mental health. Approximately one percent of the population is affected by the skin condition.

The Sims 4's vitiligo update is just developer Maxis' latest effort to increase inclusivity in the game, following other free patches such as the addition of top surgery scars, binders and shapewear, and medical wearables last year. It won't be the last either, with Wait saying they intend to continue improving The Sims 4's representation of diverse people "for years to come."

"The Sims, among other things, is about being able to see yourself and feel represented in the game," said Wait. "This is very important to the game team, and to our players. We have countless cultures, people, and places we want to bring into the game!"
