You Can Play The Sims 4 For Free, So Prepare For Some Serious RSI

Clear your schedule now.

The Sims series is like your old childhood BFF with whom you’re still pals with now even though you’ve both grown up and apart. You’ve known each other for ages, spent countless hours of fun together, and you end up losing track of time whenever you two catch up.

The point I’m getting at here is it’s time to revisit an old friend and spend countless hours together again because EA have released The Sims 4 for free for everyone.

That’s right.

The Sims 4. Free. For. Everyone.

Usually The Sims 4 goes for about $50 on Origin but EA must’ve been feeling generous or something (maybe they caught wind that Hamilton is coming to Australia and got excited).

Now there are a few catches with this little offer. Firstly it’s only available until 3AM AEST on May 29 so you better get in fast before the door closes. And secondly it’s only for PC owners so don’t bother if you own an Xbox or PS4.

If you’re interested – and let’s be honest, you totally are since it’s free – here’s how to get the game:

  1. Sign up/login for EA’s Origin platform
  2. Download
  3. Wait because Australia’s internet speeds suck.

Simple stuff. The best part is that once the deadline passes, you’ll still own the game so you can play to your heart’s content.

Anyway, best clear your schedule so you can play god and control the lives of a bunch of virtual people because that’s much more fun than real life.
