The massively popular simulation game, The Sims 4, is going free-to-play. Beginning on October 18, 2022, The Sims 4 base game will be available to all new players to download for free on PC via EA app or Origin™, Mac via Origin, Steam, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One systems. This does mean that only the base game will be going free to play, not the huge number of Sims 4 expansion packs
