The Sims 4 is free on Origin until May 28, so hurry up

Published by Electronic Arts and developed by Maxis, The Sims 4 is the fourth major title in the popular life simulation series. Initially launched for Microsoft Windows exclusively (September 2014), this title made it to macOS in February 2015. After almost two more years — on November 14, 2017, The Sims 4 also became available for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles. Now, those looking for freebies can get it for free via Origin.

The standard edition of Sims 4 usually goes for US$40 on Origin, so this deal is a good one for those into such games. Anyone can grab a free copy, as long as they have an Origin account — there is no need to have the Access Basic or Premier subscription — and keep it forever. This offer will end on 10 AM PST / 1 PM EST / 5 PM BST on May 28.

Shortly after launch, the game received mixed reviews. However, The Sims 4 was greatly improved in the meantime via multiple updates. Unfortunately, the deal does not include DLCs like Get Famous or Seasons, and the console versions of the game are not a part of it. However, being able to claim The Sims 4 for Windows and macOS is still an attractive deal.
