EA and Maxis celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Sims series with a really perfect surprise. Today, both Sims 1 and Sims 2 are again available on the PC via two older collections and the 25th birthday of Sims.
EA announced that today he publishes the Sim collection: Legacy Collection and the Sims 2: Legacy Collection. Both are available separately, and also connected for USD 40 in the Sims 25 Birthday package.
Both games include all extensions and almost All packages of things, because it seems that the Sims 2: Legacy collection is missing the IKEA Home Stuff package from 2008. But besides, everything is there. In fact, both collections contain some bonus content, and Sims 1 receives something called Fit Fit Kit, and Sims 2 received a grunge awakening set except all other add -ons.
The release of EA of two older Sims games is for the first time in over a decade that both gave, were easily accessible to play. Sims 1 has been released only on disk, so for years, unless you were able to track the aged physical copy and somehow run it on a contemporary computer with Windows, there was simply no way to get it (and this is not even included !). Sims 2 was recently available in 2014 via Ultimate Collection in the Origin EA store, but the final collection was removed some time ago. So if you don’t apply it at this time, Sims 2 remained unavailable to you, unless you find a physical disk similarly. Thanks to these two modern collections, all four Sims games are now basic to buy and play through digital store sites.
We gave Sims 1 9.5/10 and Sims 2 and 8.5/10 Waaaaaay on the day we first looked at them both. While the series has added many modern functions and since then ironed many breakdowns, the originals are still worth testing your stupidity, relative simplicity, challenge and heritage.
The Sims: Legacy Collection and The Sims 2: Legacy Collection are now available at Steam, Epic Games Store and via the EA application.
