Sims, Sims 2 Re-Released with Digital Debut

EA and Maxis are celebrating the 25th anniversary of The Sims franchise by re-releasing The Sims and The Sims 2 for modern PCs, complete with their expansions and some DLC. These Legacy Collections, available individually or as part of The Sims 25th Birthday Bundle, offer updated compatibility for Windows 10 and 11, marking the first digital release of these titles. The bundle can be purchased from digital platforms like Steam, Epic Games Store, and EA App, though there are no current plans for console releases. Fans can expect the same nostalgic experience with iconic characters and expansions, although some original content was removed due to licensing issues. EA has also included bonus content for The Sims 4 in these collections, further enriching the nostalgic package.
