Trivia[]

Britechester is based on British university towns such as Oxford. This is signified by the traditional townhouses in Gibbs Hill and the fact that cars drive on the left side of the road.
- While the University of Britechester is a direct homage to the University of Oxford, Foxbury Institute has no specific counterpart and takes influence from various modern universities.
This is the first university-themed world in The Sims series that is a main residential world, unlike the college sub-neighborhood worlds of The Sims 2: University and The Sims 3: University Life, which only allowed Sims to live at a lot if they were a college student.
It is the first university world to contain two universities at the same time: the three universities in The Sims 2: University were all in separate worlds.
Britechester is the second world in The Sims 4 to have open swimmable water, the first being Sulani from Island Living.
In one of the set-dressing buildings in Gibbs Hill you can hear a track from the The Sims: Hot Date soundtrack.
Like Mt. Komorebi and Tomarang, all the cars in Britechester drive on the left side on the road, instead of right like in most worlds.
