The Sims 4 free Downloads
5 methods with full manuals (all multi-language)
There are various methods each with their own pros and cons. Do not pay for cracked updates, see why
| Method / Version | Link to Manual and download | Pro | Con | Further details |
| Add DLC’s to your legit The Sims 4 Game. Always the latest version |
Packs | Always automatically the latest version. No conflicts with Anti-Virus. Smaller downloads | You must have at least the legal base game. | Very easy to use, small downloads You play the game via Origin, so you have access to the Gallery |
| Add DLC’s to your legit The Sims 4 Game. Always the latest version for Mac only |
Packs for Mac | As I don’t have a Mac I can’t try it out | ||
| Sims 4 all-in-one (portable) 1.89.214.1030 incl. Werewolves |
All-in-one | Available as a torrent download. Download and play with all DLC’s in one single download. Future expansions can be added easily via the Anadius Updater. No need to download the full all-in-one again. | Very large download, almost 50 GB | Good download for NEW PLAYERS of the game as it contains all packs. Extremely simple. Multi language. Included: Language changer, dlc toggler, language strings.No need to download the all-in-one again when you downloaded an earlier version before. Use the updater to actualize your game. |
| Anadius Updater 1.89.214.1030 incl. Werewolves |
Updater | In my opinion the very best system to download, install, update, repair your Sims 4. All DLC’s are selectable. Very reliable and extremely simple. |
Can’t think of any | Very easy to handle, just a few mouse-clicks required. It’s not a torrent nor a direct download. Everything will be handled for you on-line. Your game will be updated from whatever version you have to the latest version. Can also be used on FAT32 formatted drives. |
| Anadius Repack 1.89.214.1030 incl. Werewolves |
Repack | Add DLC’s in any order, update your game to the latest version. Simple and reliable. Smallest possible downloads Also very good for an all-in-one |
I prefer the Updater when you have already some DLC’s installed | Very easy to handle, you just tick what you want and the setup does it all for you. Usually many seeders. A full all-in-one took me 20 minutes to download via torrents. |
| Most recent DLC/Updates 1.89.214.1030 incl. Werewolves |
Recent | Contains only the most recent DLC and updates. | Your game must be up-to-date with the previous updates. | torrent only |
Download almost completed and then stops
This is caused by anti-virus programs. As soon as the crack for the Sims programs is detected the anti-virus aborts the download.
Why this is often noticed with downloaders from Thailand I don’t know
Thus, download and install the game whilst your anti-virus is switched off.
Change language of the game (applicable to all methods)

Misleading information
The above info could lead to the misunderstanding that you can choose to play with what pack you want to play. Totally wrong, you can’t choose at all as you can’t play Cottage Living or Get Together separately. You play The Sims 4 and the more packs you have the more “fun”.

Hello, I’ve downloaded the cracked game here. Can we access the gallery or online features? I’m playing in always online shortcut.
BTW, like to recommend cause it’s totally working and did not damage my laptop after playing for like 2 Months. I just don’t know if we could access gallery if the whole game was downloaded from here.
You can access the gallery when you have at least the legal base game, or, you can get access via the Remid method
Hello Tarac , i downloaded the updater for my cracked sims 4(version 1.44.77.1020) everything was fine but at the end of the extracting stuff an error showed up saying: Cant move files to your game folder.
if you dont have administrator rights – copy your game somewhere else, for expamle:”D:/Games/The sims 4″ (i also tried to solve the problem by using FAQ but nothing worked) What should i do????
When your “installation folder” is an .iso, you can’;t write to it.
Copy the contents of the .iso to your hard disk and make that your installation folder.
I’m currently updating from 1.88 via utorrent and I was just wondering if after I copy the mounted update iso files to my Sims 4 download destination (i downloaded the game through utorrent as well) if I could possibly delete the update files from the mounted update iso to save space, if not do you have any other solutions?
Yes, once you have copied the contents of the mounted iso to your installation folder you can delete the iso.
Hi, I tried updating via the repack. It usually works fine but this time a file was flagged as containing a trojan.
Yes, the cracks are regarded as Trojans. This however is a false positive
hello, so i downloaded all the recent updates, game is up to 1.89.214.1030 but when i enter the game it says about werewolves pack to download and use, it doesnt seem owned, what should i do?
best regards!
Run the latest EA DLC unlocker
Hi I’ve installed all the packs, the chickens on country living don’t seem to come out the coop… any patch to sort this? Thanks Jen

As you can see the problems are with the folder Game.
Download the latest folder game as described on this page
When that’s done, the crack will be recognized as well as the installed packs.
still doesn´t work =((((
Hi, I dont have the base game, is it possible to use the Updater to install the whole game from scratch? Will be any problem with it? Thank you
yes, you can use the Updater by choosing Repair (not Update).
Hi, does this work on widows 11?
Yes, it does
Brilliant, thank you so much
Also thank you for everything you are doing to help us poor people to play.
ik heb het alles in 1 pakket gedownload, kan ik hierbij ook mods downloaden van bijvoorbeeld the sims recourse?
Ja, dat zou zeker moeten kunnen, mits de mods niet verouderd zijn.
Another update is introduced today, any news on when it will be available here?
New link to version 0.6.78 available now
Bonjour tarac j’ai installer la totalité des sims jeux + dlc une fois connecter on me dis qu’il faut faire une mise à jour sur le jeu sims 4 je joue en online et je suis connecter à origin
Je précise que je peux jouer sans mise à jour
Mais Est ce que je peux la faire ou pas ou ça risque de me bloquer le jeux ?
Available now – see this page
Hi, thank you so much for all your work! It works great, except for one thing – I’d like to play online with gallery, but in my country I can’t have the trial version of the sims 4 so I can’t do it this way. Is there any other way?
Have you tried this page ?
Yes, I did :/. Also, I do have the official base game and I have no idea how to update it. Does anyone know how to do it?
Use the Anadius Updater and make sure you answer YES when prompted for your legal game in the same directory.
The updater creates a new folder Game-cracked in your legal The Sims 4 directory and will add the ticked packs.
When that is done, run the EA DLC unlocker (see this page)
Hello,
The prompt to log into the gallery is not appearing for me, it is the first time I open the game
What method are you using, remid or pack ?
hello, also just updated my game but none of the new scenarios show up and in the neighbourhood menu the icons dont show up aswell any solution thanks
hello, when i try repairing my game it states that it cant hatch the Delta/SP25/clientdeltabuild and i cant delete it because the file is corrupted any advise on how to fix this?
when i try to run as admin it says “You put the Unlocker in a path that will break the setup script. Move it somewhere else, for example “C:\unlocker” or “D:\unlocker”.” any help
hello! because i am new to all of this, i wanted to ask where i can download the base game? (a cracked one) thank you!!
Here is the link for the latest base game 1.84.197.1030
Hi! I downloaded + installed the pre patch and the wedding stories update, nothing shows up in the game. I always use your uploads so i cant imagine doing something wrong. When i go to my packs its just shows a blank box, all the other ones have a picture of the game pack. How can I fix this?
Download and install the final update
i love the sims 4 and cc shopping
Hi I’m having a problem with the client build file it won’t let me transfer it. I’m not sure if I have done something wrong I only have used your files for all of my sims 4
Apply the latest EA DLC Unlocker
Hi Tarac, thanks so much for everything you do. I just wanted to let you know in case, I’ve downloaded the wedding stories from the updater, but the world doesn’t load at all, just a white screen and can’t do anything but exit to main menu!
No worries, it was my TOOL mod conflicting! Problems solved!!!
Hello Tarac! Thank you so much for everything, I’m so excited to play with Wedding Stories. Is it coming out today? I couldn’t even sleep from all the excitement! woo
Anybody know if its possible to still buy packs when using anadius? I wanted to buy the new my wedding stories pack, and it says I own it even though anadius hasnt released it quite yet
Yes of course you can still buy packs for your legal game
In my legal game the picture of SP12 does not even show up, in my cracked game it shows as Download to use and when I untick My Wedding Stories in the dlc toggler it shows not owned.
Good evening, I installed the sims 4 from this page and I noted that in the sims folder there was not a ‘saves’ folder. Should it be like that? Because my games are saving I would just like to know where. I would like to add other games into the ‘saves’ folder.
Your saves folder has nothing at all to do with expansion packs. That folder is stored in a different directory C:\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Saves
Hi Tarac, hope you are doing well.
Is it possible to not download some of the packs, i want to download but I’m not sure about some packs
Do I download all the dlc for it to work
hello can you unlock the gallery online with out us have to log in to it
No, for access to the Gallery you must always be logged in
Hi Tarac. I have the crack version of the game. I got this update and now i have the option to log into the gallery. I have not logged in yet since i prefer to play offline. Will logging in the gallery delete any of my progress?
No it does not delete your progress
Hello Tarac, this is the first time i will update my crack.sims game. So im wonderIng if my game will lag. If not will the update delete anything?
The update does not delete anything at all
I was able to get all of the DLCs working as well as the gallery. Thank you so much love <3
Hey Tarac, I have a question
See I don’t have the legal game but I do have the cracked base game from the site oceanofgames.com
So my question is that will the Anadius update method still work on my cracked game?
When your present game is based on the cracks by Codex or Anadius the answer is YES
https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/upload
This site says that the updater contains a Trojan.Riskware, Generic ML PUA, Static AI
That is correct in some way, however what virustotal considers to be a virus is in fact just a crack to circumvent Origin files.
So completely harmless.
Hi, Tarac. Ever since I’ve downloaded and used your DLCs, I can’t play any scenarios. When Sims opens and I get the welcome screen with New Game, Load Game, and New Scenario, and I click on New Scenario, nothing happens. Do you know why this might happen? Thanks!
Update your game via the Anadius Updater. If your game folder contains your legal game then click yes when prompted about your legit game otherwise click No
hello! first of all thank you so much for ALL of these options.
i got the game to work and have access to the gallery, however it says i have “pre-ordered” cottage living and snowy escape, but don’t have access to its content. it also says i don’t have the paranormal stuff pack in CAS.
not quite sure how this happened as when i installed the game + dlcs i only unchecked one of them.
i was just wondering which downloader or what would be the best way for me to get these missing few packs? thank you!
Use the Anadius Updater. Browse to the folder of your legal game. When prompted about your legal game in the folder click Yes
would this change if i didn’t have a legal base game? ^^;
No, unless you are trying to use the “{Pack System”
hey how can i download base game for mac?
Just buy it from Origin for approx. € 12,50. Once you have a Legal base game installed you can add all DLC’s for free.
Hi, Tarac. Ever since I’ve downloaded and used your DLCs, I can’t play any scenarios. When Sims opens and I get the welcome screen with New Game, Load Game, and New Scenario, and I click on New Scenario, nothing happens. Do you know why this might happen? Thanks!
Hello,
I ran into a problem:
In sims 4 why i can’t build public spaces anymore??? When i go into build mode on any lot, there’s usually a little info button up the top. It’ll give me different options like changing the name of the lot. It’ll also say “Residential” or whatever it is. From that drop down menu, i got change the type of lot, and it’ll tell me if there’s any required items for the lot to function and stuff. There are only 3 residental choices now? ???
Help: I want to build a park, etc. and a shop, etc. but I can’t because there is no choice??????? ( I also took a picture of the screen if needed).
– What should I do?
As 95% of all problems is caused by mods, temporarily MOVE (not copy) your the Sims 4 folder out of C:\Documents\Electronic Arts to your desktop.
Start your game again. Close the game and copy the folders Saves and Tray back from the Sims 4 folder on your desktop back to the newly created The Sims 4 folder in C:\Documents\Electronic Arts.
Try your game now.
Thank you for answering!
I discovered in the meantime: I can’t change lot type – if “my sim” is on lot. I have to go to the create world, and choose another lot location (which is not mine, etc.)
I don’t know what’s causing this (or I’m stupid, and that’s been the case all along – although I don’t remember it before, and i have been playing this game for yeaaaaars ?!) So I get around that problem.
Thank you again for answering, and Wonderful holidays and the upcoming New Year for You!

I have downloaded the game with the .iso file. Instructions said that I need to copy the sims 4 folder to a different location in my computer than the mounted iso. So I did. Now my question is. Do I have 2 games. One in mounted iso and one in my computer? And can/should I delete the iso file to be still able to play the game from the copied sims 4 file. Because the iso file is like 50gb. I want to get rid of it. Can I get rid of it and still play the game? I would appreciate any response.
When the Sims 4 works correctly from the new location you can safely delete the .iso
Can You please provide a clearer step-by-step guide on how to extract the unlocker and the updater, just in case I somehow misunderstood the instructions in the link. I don’t know what i’m doing wrong.
see this page for Winrar
see this page for .iso files
Thank you for everything. I haven’t experienced any problems so far. The updater is very awesome. Have a great day!
Hi guys,
We are using the updater from time to time. The last time we used, it made an error. This happened before, it was not a big deal, I have tried again and it was done this time. But this time, we tried once again and only find the Anadius box. The reason we do not want to do with Anadius version is because we did that before and it completely chrushed the game. It cause all kinds of problems so we had to download the whole game from the beginning. So I would like to dowload it using codex. How can I do that? What can I do in this situation? Could this be related to not using the latest version of the updater?
I just had the same problem and have had to redownload the whole game all over again. I already had the issue where I had extracted the DLCs into the installation folder of my legal game, and the game was coming up saying that I did own all the DLCs but then I looked, and I couldn’t actually access any of them in game. That’s when I tried to fix the issue with the updater. I could play the main game fine but when I used the updater to try and update the game,the whole Sims 4 just seemed to stop working and now I’m wondering if it’s even safe to try using the updater again.
1. Update/Repair your legal game via Origin.
2. When you run the Updater you are prompted with a question like “Does this folder also contain your legit game” – answer with Yes. should you answer with No, the updater overwrites the folder Game of your legal game and your The Sims 4 will turn into a cracked game.
Hello! Everything has downloaded fine and is showing on the home page on the actual game however when I try to download the packs.. it asks if I want to connect to the internet and then says access denied. I’ve rang the updated again but the same message pops up!
Anyone had the problem?
Don’t try to download packs in that manner unless you bought them.
When you own at least the legal base game see this page
If you don’t have a legal Sims 4 game, see this page
Hi! I have been using your updater and it’s working great (thank you!), however I’m not able to start any scenarios in the latest update. Everything else in game is fine, but when I push the button for new scenario nothing happens. Any ideas on what the problem is?
Are you using mods ?
If yes, temporarily move the folder C:\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to your desktop and try again
Yup, that did the trick, should’ve known actually. Thanks!
Glad it works now !
Yes, it cannot be repeated often enough:
mods cause 95% of all problems.
Hello there, i’ve been using the updater for a while now and it’s always working. (So now in the game i have until cottage living with courtyard oasis kit,…)
When the newest kit’s came out (industrial loft kit – incheon arrivals kit) i used the updater and my game is now version : 1.81.72.1030 but the latest 3 kits doesn’t show up in the game…
What can i do?
Thanks
When you open the installation folder of the Sims 4 (not the one in C:\Documents\Electronic Arts) you see, besides the folders Install, Data, Delta, Game and Support, the folders for your DLC’s (EP,FP,GP and SP).
Do you see SP24, SP25 and SP26 ?
If not: You browsed in the Anadius Updater to an incorrect installation folder
If yes: Start your game and click on the top of your screen on KITS. Do they all show up ?
has anyone tried the mac download?
You better place this question in the correct page https://sims.tarac.nl/add-new-dlcs-to-your-legal-base-game-mac-version/
Hello, I had the cracked game (pre latest kit update) on a USB stick that recently broke. I do have the base game (legit) so my question is, if I were to use that method to download just the packs will I lose the builds and gameplay from that version on the USB? Thanks!
PS I did use a dummy account to log in too
All your gameplay items are in a different directory on your hard disk (not on the USB): C:|Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4.
These will not be affected by a new installation of the game.
So go ahead, install your legal game (via your legal log-in), add the required DLC’s, run the Unlocker and you should still have your old builds, sims and gameplay items.
Hello, is there a torrent file for the base game 64x latest? I tried to download it in the updater but it takes too long . and I don’t really have much space for the all In one. Thank you
Run the Anadius Repack and only select Base Game, the 2 patches, no-origin-fix and setup
Hi! I’ve downloaded from this site before so i have everything up to Moschino. I tried downloading the new packs but it failed in my torrent download. I’m a little lost on your page and dont really know what to do. So ill just leave this here in case you have any advice and I dont manage to fix it. ill keep trying but i dont know why it didnt work the first time.
THanks for this awesome site!
S
Use the Anadius Updater
Are these the updates for those who have previously installed the all-in-one?
Yes, you can update an all-in-one with these packages.
Hello. How do you use CC ? if I d/l from SimsResource for example, where do I install it too, file location etc and how do I enable it in the game please ?
