The Sims 4 is going to be free to all players across all available platforms from the 18th of October onwards for the foreseeable future. Developers have said that they will continue to make new content for the game, with expansion packs and new updates.

They've also elaborated that EA Play and EA Play Pro members will receive an upgraded experience when member-only bundles of The Sims 4 go into The Play List on October 18. The Sims 4 EA Play Edition includes The Sims 4 Get To Work Expansion Pack, while the EA Play Pro Edition includes both The Sims 4 Get To Work Expansion Pack and The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff Pack.

Long-time Sim players and those who have already purchased the base game will receive the Desert Luxe Kitas as a gift. To redeem the Desert Luxe Kit, simply log into the game and it will be available in the main menu for you to claim.
