If you have seen the phrase “The Sims 4 Legacy Edition” around the web but you’re not sure what it is, this is the right place for you. Let’s check what this version of the game is and whether you need it in the first place.

This is your The Sims 4 Legacy Edition guide, where we will answer all the questions that might be bugging you about this issue.

The Sims 4 Legacy Edition: Do I Need It?

First things first, The Sims 4 Legacy Edition is not an additional game pack or expansion pack. Simply, it’s a version of the same Sims 4 game that works just fine with the older computers.

EA announced that they are upgrading their requirements for The Sims 4 games, so if you have the Windows 32-bit operating system or a non-metal MAC operating system, you might be in trouble. 

Yet, this is important for games after University expansion. The older ones will still work. P.S some online features might stop working too.

32-bit: What Is It?

If you’re just interested in playing the games, you might not know what this whole 32-bit thing even means. Let’s take a quick look at the most important aspects.

Your computer has an operating system. If you’re using Windows, it can either be 32-bit or 64-bit. This basically means how much information your computer can process at the same time. If your OS is 64-bit, then it’s over 4 billion times more memory than a 32-bit processor.

In easier words, if your computer works on a 64-bit processor, it can multitask better, do more complicated tasks at once. 

If your computer doesn’t have enough memory, it will start lagging once you play games. Sometimes it can even be completely unplayable.  

The Sims 4 Legacy Edition and Previous Packs

Now this is the part that troubled a lot of players. Can I play the previous Sims 4 game packs and expansion packs with the new edition?

Well, good news for all of us! It was confirmed that players still have the game additions they bought before, and they can still play all the games they have with the upgrade.

Why does The Sims 4 Legacy Edition Exist?

Before you get scared, there is nothing bad about this upgrade. This just means that the game makers want to ensure that your computer can let you enjoy the full experience of the Sims world.

Also, this way, they can add additional things which need better processing power. In some way, the EA is giving you a great gift. It’s the gift of no more lagging!

Now, you’re more than ready to play The Sims 4 Legacy Edition! Don’t get scared if you get the notification about the need to upgrade. Just do it and enjoy the game even more without any additional issues.

It’s the same The Sims 4 game. Now it just got a bit better for those with slower computers and older operating systems.
