The Sims 4 is free to download from EA Origin today on PC and Mac but the deal won't be around forever. As part of a new promotion, EA is giving away free downloads of The Sims 4 in May 2019. This deal doesn't extend to the PS4 and Xbox One, so only PC players willing to add another launcher to their desktop need apply. The Sims 4 definitely feels like the next step in the series. Some features that were missing at launch, such as pools, have since been added which is great but it still feels like they intentionally left features/items out of the base game so they could maximize expansion and content packs which is unfortunate.
EA is offering a free copy of Sims 4 for a limited time, the game is available for free download on PC and Mac OS till May 28, 2019. So this is your time to download a free copy of Sims 4 Standard Edition, also check the minimum system requirement to run Sims 4 on Windows. You will need Origins Client to download the free version of Sims 4.
The free download is confirmed via The Sims twitter account, the game was first released in the year 2014.
