The Sims 4 features a series of exciting challenges for Sims to complete while living out their best life. From the Black Widow Challenge to the Decades Challenges, there are plenty of tasks and objectives to dive into to make your Sims life more exhilarating. One of the best legacy challenges in Sims 4 is the Zodiac Legacy Challenge, which allows players to explore their interest in Astrology and zodiac signs.

The Zodiac Legacy Challenge tasks Sims with living each one of the 12 astrological Zodiac signs, creating a 12-generation legacy. Each Sim generation has specific goals and personalities based on the traits of their Zodiac sign. Completing the Zodiac Legacy Challenge can be complex and time-consuming, but here’s a step-by-step guide to ensure you accomplish it.
