EA Revives The Sims 1 and The Sims 2
Great news for fans of The Sims franchise! EA has just unveiled Legacy Editions of both The Sims 1 and The Sims 2 for PC.
This launch is particularly special, as it marks the first time The Sims 1 has hit digital storefronts since its launch in 2000—a time when the internet was an entirely different beast!
The Sims Legacy Collection
The Sims Legacy Collection brings nostalgia to the forefront, bundling an impressive array of downloadable content (DLC) for players to enjoy.
This collection includes fan-favorite expansions such as Livin’ Large, House Party, Hot Date, Vacation, Unleashed, Superstar, and Makin’ Magic.
As a delightful bonus, buyers will also receive a Throwback Fit Kit for The Sims 4, adding even more flair to the gaming experience.
The Sims 2 Legacy Collection
Meanwhile, The Sims 2 Legacy Collection offers an extensive selection of DLC options that could delight or overwhelm players.
This robust compilation features expansions like University, Nightlife, Open for Business, Pets, Bon Voyage, Seasons, FreeTime, Apartment Life, and a host of themed packs.
From the Holiday Party Pack to Glamour Life Stuff, and even Teen Style Stuff, there’s plenty to dive into.
Plus, purchasers won’t leave empty-handed: they’ll also snag a Grunge Revival Kit for The Sims 4 as an extra treat.
One particular aspect that has generated buzz is the sheer volume of DLC associated with The Sims 2.
For some, this may evoke memories of a notable moment in gaming history involving reviewer Steve Hogarty, who faced a fallout with EA after his less-than-favorable review of an H&M-themed expansion.
His follow-up thoughts on an IKEA-inspired pack only added fuel to the fire.
Players can easily find both the Legacy and The Sims 2 Legacy Collections on popular platforms like Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Alternatively, fans might consider grabbing the special anniversary bundle commemorating EA’s 25th year in the gaming industry.
Ultimately, it’s now up to the vibrant community of players to determine whether the pricing aligns with the value of these nostalgic offerings.
