Celebrate 25 years of The Sims with the return of the original games! EA and Maxis are throwing a party, and you're invited. Both The Sims and The Sims 2 are back on PC, available now in their respective Legacy Collections. For a complete celebration, grab The Sims 25th Birthday Bundle, offering both collections for a combined price.
Each Legacy Collection includes nearly all expansions and stuff packs. While The Sims 2: Legacy Collection is missing the IKEA Home Stuff pack, it still boasts a comprehensive package. As a bonus, The Sims receives the Throwback Fit Kit, and The Sims 2 gets the Grunge Revival Kit.
This marks the first time in over a decade that both original Sims titles have been readily accessible. The Sims was initially a disc-only release, making it virtually impossible to play on modern systems without a physical copy. The Sims 2, while available for a time via an Ultimate Collection, was later removed from digital storefronts. Now, all four main Sims games are easily purchasable digitally.
Remember our classic reviews? We gave The Sims a 9.5/10 and The Sims 2 an 8.5/10! Despite advancements in the series, the originals retain their charm, offering a unique blend of simplicity, challenge, and nostalgic fun.
Dive back into the history of life simulation. The Sims: Legacy Collection and The Sims 2: Legacy Collection are available now on Steam, the Epic Games Store, and the EA app.
