Guess what, retro Sims fans? EA and Maxis have something special up their sleeves as part of the 25th anniversary celebration of the beloved Sims series. Those rumored re-releases of the first two Sims games? They’re absolutely real, and you can get your hands on them starting today.
There had been a buzz going around that EA planned to release these classics digitally on PC before the month was out, essentially by this week. Sure enough, they dropped on January 31st, which was a last-minute Friday surprise. Quite the timing, right?
For those looking to dive back into the nostalgia, these re-releases are available through the EA app, Epic Games Store, and Steam under the titles The Sims: Legacy Collection and The Sims 2: Legacy Collection. You can also grab both together in a special Sims 25th Birthday Bundle.
EA made a pretty heartwarming announcement about this, saying, “To celebrate our legacy and honor the incredible fans who have supported us, we’re bringing back two fan-favorite titles. They contain the classic neighborhoods and memorable characters like the tricky burglar, the capricious genie, and the infamous Sunny the Tragic Clown — the ones that started it all. Rediscover the nostalgia and the magic of the classics that welcomed so many of you into our amazing community.”
Now, let’s talk pricing. If you’re considering indulging in this nostalgic trip, it’ll set you back $39.99 for the bundle, $19.99 for just The Sims: Legacy Collection, and $29.99 for The Sims 2: Legacy Collection. Most of the original expansion packs seem to be included, although, regrettably, The Sims 2’s IKEA Home Stuff pack is missing.
It’s a bit of a bummer, but fear not, you’ll still find two holiday packs with that game, plus the H&M Fashion Stuff pack to satisfy any corporate tie-in cravings. On top of that, The Sims 4’s Throwback Fit Kit and Grunge Revival Kit are part of the deal too. The Throwback Fit Kit comes with the first game, while the Grunge Revival Kit pairs with the second, so if you haven’t picked up those add-ons before, it’s a sweet little bonus for the latest iteration.
So, let’s pause the fun you’re having in the quirky “meme jacuzzi” section of EA’s oddball Sims Y2K website that’s part of this anniversary fiesta. Take a break, towel off, and dive into these re-releases if that sparks your interest!
