Sims 4 Lunar Cycles: How The Moon Affects You (& How To Use It)
The Sims 4 has released a new game pack featuring the fan-favorite Werewolf life state. Werewolves are fundamentally linked to the current “Lunar Cycle” and “Moon Phase”. However, this system also affects other previously available life states, like Vampires or Mermaids, and Sims of various ages.
Moon Phases are an optional environmental system, which is on by default with The Sims 4 patch 131. Players can access the environment tab to further adjust the length of a cycle, if a particular phase is always on, or the option to turn off the moon features entirely. But, the latter will cause Werewolf functions to also be inaccessible.

A standard full Lunar Cycle lasts eight days in The Sims 4. Players can further adjust this per save to be two, sixteen, or twenty-four days. The different Moon Phases include New Moon, Waxing Moon, Waning Moon, Quarter Moon, Gibbous Moon, and Full Moon.
