Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2.14/day in the week to Sep 15 → 5.43/day in the week after.

Es un juego genial, aunque tiene sus fallas. Diría que es el motor lo que impide tener un mejor rendimiento, ya que se alenta (o laguea) en ciertos momentos, pero no genera un impacto negativo en la experiencia. EA, por favor, organiza la interfaz del juego; se ve super pequeña en 1080p y diminuta en 4K.
Classic game.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 5: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 3.71/day in the week to Jul 30 → 4.57/day in the week after.
Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I love the sims 2 so bad bro, i'm so glad they brought it to platforms man lol
just no way this isn't the best SIMS game. haven't played much of Sims 4, but if I'm understanding it right, that it's LESS complex than Sims 3 (which is good, but the frame stuttering with all that big town flat out blows) ... I don't see it being better than this one. and this, all presented cleanly with all the non-intrusive DLC ... yeah, this is amazing. just the right balance of light and dark, I think. aging, like in real life, is pretty alarming in how non-negotiable it seemingly is. it's wild to think they probably won't be making a Sims 5, at least not anytime soon-soon. (why make a new expensive game when you can pump out endless DLC, right?) The Sims to me was the first modern DLC game, only back then it was boxed expansions. but there were tons. the best idea of The Sims for me was the craziness of some of the items in a building mode scored by all that beautiful piano music from the first. but Sims 2 is the first one (with a little less edge) with more. and in 3D. so what do you want? I can't think of any reason this isn't the best one. even better than it was when I just played vanilla back around when it came out. a game made BETTER by its DLC. whoa. soon-soon. be kind to your pets.
ㅅㅂ수리처하다가죽어서할의지를잃어버림..
one of best sims game but i wish sims 5 or smth mix immersive of sims 2 and open world of sims 3 that enough no need to be like emotion system as in sims 4
Un vrai bon dans le passé! Et quel plaisir de revoir tous les petites détails hyper soignés de l'époque.
Amo el mejor juego de los Sims, esta versión hace que no tenga problema alguno en Windows 11 así que super feliz ando.
Loved it then. Love it now. Good deal for the whole collection!
It was 11:50 p.m., I was about to sleep, but I decided to play just a little more, when I checked my watch it was 2 a.m. 10/10, amazing game
