Is the Sims 2 (digital) version available to access / purchase on Origin?

    Hi there @beckys19,

    The Sims 2 is no longer available digitally through Origin for purchase- if you do not already own The Ultimate Collection in Origin, the only way to play is through the disk version.

Heyo really want to play sims 2 but I only have the disks and it doesn't work on my laptop is there any way that I can get the game digitally through proving ownership of my original game?

@SlackerVibes There is no way to legally get a digital copy of The Sims 2 for PC anymore. The game has been retired.

If you own a Mac, though, you can purchase The Sims 2 Super Collection, made specifically for Mac, on Mac App Store.

If you wish to install the game on PC using disks, which is possible, with some setup, please start a new thread, list all the packs you have and whether any of them are Deluxe/Collection bundles, as well as the issues that you're having.
