The Sims 2 Link Link Link

Additional notes:

  • Both games have all the DLC (bar the IKEA collection for TS2 from I believe).
  • Both games have the Denuvo DRM for some reason so keep that in mind if you’re worried about it.
    Seems to be a false alarm, EA removed any mention of Denuvo from the store pages.
  • The Sims 1 will still run at its original resolution, but will now scale pixels to make better use of larger monitors while preserving the look and layout of the game.
  • Old save files and mods are compatible with this version of the game (TS for sure according to the help page, I’m not certain about TS2).

    I still have the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection from the time they ended up giving it to everyone who’d claim it for a few days.

    They haven’t removed it from the app… yet. Not taking any chances, I’m re-downloading it on my current PC right now.

      I don’t think they’ll remove the Ultimate Collection from people’s libraries. The main incentive to buy is… well, the ability to buy the games and the improved compatibility with modern systems - UC doesn’t really affect the main demographic, i.e. people who aren’t interested or knowledgeable enough to fix those issues on their own.
