THE SIMS and THE SIMS 2 Get Re-Releases for Game’s 25th Anniversary Vishu Reddy | amznusa.com

Never did I think a day like this would come. Video game company Electronic Arts is celebrating the 25th anniversary of its beloved original life simulation game by re-releasing both The Sims and The Sims 2. However, the release is only available for Windows users so Mac users (me) will have to sit this one out.

The Sims and The Sims 2 are available together, bundled as The Sims 25th Birthday Bundle, as well as separately under the titles The Sims: Legacy Collection and The Sims 2: Legacy Collection. As mentioned above, the rerelease is only available to Windows 10 and 11. But it’s okay. I will still be able to play The Sims 4 and watch the upcoming Sims movie.

“Bringing back our original Sims games where all the chaos first unfolded and the life simulation genre began is special for our team and a birthday treat for our players,” said Vice President and General Manager of The Sims franchise Kate Gorman Revelli. “Our players have been wishing to relive all the nostalgia, and we knew our birthday would be the perfect moment to celebrate with them and introduce The Sims to new players. We look forward to another exciting 25 years of The Sims as we continue empowering our community to reimagine all the different ways they play with life.”

The games can be downloaded from multiple sources, including the EA app, Epic Games Store, and Steam. Members of the upper tier of EA’s subscription service, EA Play Pro, have unlimited access to both titles. EA Play costs $39.99 a year, with the Pro tier at a steeper price tag of $119.99 yearly.

The latest release of the franchise, The Sims 4, recently celebrated its 10th anniversary. I have been playing The Sims 4 from the beginning of high school all the way till my college graduation, so you can imagine how happy I was to hear that EA announced that it would continue updating and expanding it. However, they are choosing this path in lieu of making a Sims 5.

Both titles are chalked full of bonus content and expansion packs. The bundle retails for $39.99. For the complete information on both the games, you can check out the EA’s page for The Sims and The Sims 2.
