With the release of MySims Cozy Bundle for PC, EA has released an article detailing the differences from the old 2007 MySims game and what’s to come for the PC and Switch version.

Buy at EA, Steam or Epic Games and Nintendo eShop.

Today is the day, MySims is now on PC – available on EA App, Epic and Steam! We have loved bringing this game to you on Switch, so we’re excited that PC gamers now get to enjoy the same levels of cozy customization. But we aren’t done *just* yet. We have also been working hard on a couple new additions that will be coming to both Switch and PC soon…. Stay tuned for more updates…

-The MySims Team

To report any bugs or issues or for the latest updates, please visit our official forums.

What’s changed since the 2007 PC version?

We have all new PC controls - not just enhancing the keyboard and mouse functionality from the original PC version, but also adding controller support for Xbox and PlayStation controllers.

We’ve carried over the performance and visual improvements from the Switch version, including the new added features of Autosave, improved loading times, and the ability to shut off auto-camera rotation

We’ve carried over bug fixes from the Switch version including:

NPCs will no longer have duplicates running around town

Furniture will no longer disappear from NPC houses

CAS will allow randomizing skin tones

Buddy will no longer have a phantom task in Kingdom

Rendering Issues or Low FPS?

If you’re experiencing graphical glitches, low FPS, or other rendering issues, your graphics drivers or DirectX version may be outdated or missing. For the best performance and compatibility, always update your drivers manually from the manufacturer’s website.

Also please check if you are using any non-EA overlays or hefty anti-virus software, as these may have unintended consequences on your game.

You can see our minimum and recommended PC specifications on the various storefronts (EA App, Epic Games and Steam) for the best player experience – please make sure you have enough hard drive space, RAM, and the appropriate graphics card, etc.

Coming Soon!

We’ve heard your feedback: additional skin tones, and the ability to move Sims into the Garden area are both coming to Switch and PC!

Steam Deck compatibility work is underway, so you can play on the go

Fixes for some more top community reported bugs - for instance, that planted essences or buildings in the Garden do not persist after leaving.

Thank you for your continued support of MySims. We’ve worked hard to make sure the PC experience feels true to, and improves on, the legacy title - and that Kingdom has a worthy PC edition since it has been so long awaited. We look forward to hearing from you on the MySims section on our official Discord!

MySims Cozy Bundle is now available for Windows!

Buy at EA, Steam or Epic Games

Great news, Simmers! As of March 18, 2025, we are very happy to announce that MySims: Cozy Bundle is now available on PC! Fans eager to dive into these adorable adventures can play on PC via EA app, Epic Games Store, and Steam, Nintendo eShop, at retail and on Nintendo.com. *

MySims: Cozy Bundle features retro re-releases of two fan-favorite games, MySims and MySims Kingdom, where players can unleash their creativity as they explore familiar worlds that are full of puzzles to solve, locations to discover, tons of characters with big personalities to meet, and a lot to build, paint and decorate!

Make a Town Your Very Own in MySims!

Embark on an exciting adventure in MySims, where Mayor Rosalyn needs your help building a charming town for the people who live there. Show Mayor Rosalyn how creative you can be as you have fun with local townspeople by fulfilling their requests and having meaningful conversations!

In MySims, players can build and customize a town that is all theirs – from crafting furniture in the Workshop and tracking down Blueprints for new buildings, including their own home. Players will name and develop the town, setting an example for both new and current residents.

As players build up the town, they will attract new residents – with fan-favorite characters making a return, including the beloved Italian Chef Gino and incredibly cool DJ Candy.

Restore Magical Lands in MySims: Kingdom

In MySims: Kingdom, discover new stories and take on epic quests as you travel to magical islands full of adventure, playful themes, exciting puzzles, and unique characters! King Roland and his subjects need your help to make the kingdom thrive and make this magical world become an even better place.

Hear tales from locals and friends, unraveling the mysteries of these fascinating lands as you help this kingdom prosper. You’ll first begin by collecting Mana, a magical essence, using it to create items, furniture, and house parts for a plethora of locations on the island. As you unlock more to build, such as colors to paint with by finding Scrolls, recipes will unlock new powers and you’ll watch as this colorful island kingdom is slowly brought back to life!

As subjects are blown away by the boundless expressions of your imagination to reinvigorate this island, you’ll also be introduced to several different types of animals, including Bobaboo, the fan-favorite triceratops, that expand the way you can interact with the multiple themed islands.

MySims: Cozy Bundle is now available on PC via EA app, Epic Games Store, and Steam, Nintendo eShop, at retail and on Nintendo.com. *

Simmers can get even cozier with a limited edition collection featuring lovable MySims characters and more, now available at shopthesims.com.

*Conditions and restrictions apply. See https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/mysims-cozy-bundle/buy for details.

Patch 4 was released a few days ago and contains bug fixes for The Sims and The Sims 2 Legacy Collection, you can see the patch notes below and update via EA App/Steam.

Sul Sul, Simmers!

We’ve loved seeing all the creative builds and memorable moments you’re enjoying in these legacy titles! We’re continuing to address the major issues you’ve been reporting via the official EA Forums.

- The Sims Team

For the most current patch updates, please visit The Sims Game Info Hub here.

February 12, 2025 patch notes are viewable here.

February 6, 2025 patch notes are viewable here.

February 4, 2025 patch notes are viewable here.

February 20, 2025 Patch Notes:

The Sims

Fixed Issues:

General stability improvements

Addressed video player issues

Performance improvement with AMD GPUs

On some systems, walls, floors and other items might not appear on screen

The game could crash when zooming in/out of Calamity Forest

Child Sims would sometimes show a “Missing Animation” error when interacting with mail

On some computers set to 2k resolution, visual artifacts or tearing could be present on various game screens

The blue panel on the bottom of the screen did not properly fill the horizontal space

Tiles near pool edges sometimes displayed as empty and grey

The Burglar appearing could crash the game

The Sims General Notes:

The game by default adopts the aspect ratio of the monitor it is run on. The aspect ratio can now be specified with the launch option “-maxaspect:<width>:<height>” (note that underbars ‘_’ can be used instead of colons). Examples: -maxaspect:16:9, -maxaspect_4_3 or bespoke ones like -maxaspect:16:10

Note that the option will only set the aspect of height to width. It will only restrict the maximum width - it can not increase it

In windowed mode, the window will run at the aspect ratio; at fullscreen black bars will fill the unused space of the monitor

This will mostly be useful in situations where your monitor (virtual or real) is very wide, but you want the game to be a more traditional aspect ratio

Note that there are limitations on how extreme a ratio this will accept

There are some hardware configurations that we are seeing a disproportionate number of errors on and are actively investigating.

Some players who have experienced problems with getting an error indicating a lack of Vulkan compatible devices have reported that in some cases removing “OpenCL, OpenGL, and Vulkan Compatibility Pack” can resolve the issue

We have received reports of “random flies” appearing. This is working as designed

The Sims 2

Fixed Issues:

General Stability improvements

In some situations, the game would show an error indicating “too many iterations”

Modular staircases could not be deleted and could be a source of infinite money

The dog Sim is missing from the household after moving to a lot

The Design Tool palette chooser pop-up could go off screen and not be able to be dismissed or interacted with

Music tracks by Depeche Mode and Natasha Bedingfield have been restored

The mouse pointer, Sim names, and Info Panel tooltips in build/buy were sometimes not properly aligned

Beach lots could sometimes have incorrect terrain paint

The Sims 2 General notes:

In some cases, issues that have now been addressed might have corrupted game saves from before they were addressed (e.g. when Sims could disappear, Sims can’t eat cooked food, etc). In these cases, please try starting a fresh save as the game won’t be able to correct the corruption, and working with corrupted saves may lead to unexpected behavior.

While the Alien Abduction scene now works, the scene is still missing the alien baby. We’ll continue working on that. In the meantime, you will have the alien baby in the game once the scene is done.

Some players have tried using Windows shortcut keys to move the full-screen game to another monitor. When in full-screen mode, the game should not be moved to another monitor or this may cause issues.

There may be issues not listed here that are in the process of being addressed as certain issues require an extended investigation on our end. Even though these fixes may be in active review, it’s not a guarantee that we’ll have an immediate fix for it in an upcoming patch.

Please continue to share and report any issues on our forums, and join our official Discord community for tips, tricks, and news!

Dag Dag,

The Sims 3 Generations event was held in London, can’t remember the venue name or when it happened.

We did an audio interview with a SimGuru but due to time constraints we had to do in the room where everyone was playing. Unfortunately the audio is hard to transcript.

I believe I still have the audio but no pictures unfortunately due to loss of hard drive.

The Sims Medieval event was held at Hever Castle in Kent. I believe in March 2011.
