EA Plans Sims 1 and 2 Remasters

Electronic Arts (EA) is reportedly preparing a re-release of the classic 'The Sims' and 'The Sims 2' games in celebration of the franchise's 25th anniversary. The re-releases are expected to include all original expansion packs and will be available on modern PC systems, with rumors suggesting a launch date by the end of January 2025. Fans are eager for these remasters due to the nostalgic value and the modern compatibility they would offer, as the original discs are difficult to run on current computers. While EA has not officially confirmed these re-releases, teasers and industry leaks have suggested that the celebration will indeed include a return to the series' roots. These developments come amidst ongoing updates to 'The Sims 4,' as EA has opted not to develop 'The Sims 5' yet. The potential re-release has excited long-time fans who are hopeful for an official announcement soon.
