Why isn't PC getting 64-Bit?
Why are Mac users the only ones getting 64-Bit? Windows users want 64Bit too!

Windows isn't getting a 64-bit update because the 32-bit version of Sims 3 still works in all versions of Windows. The 32-bit version of Sims 3 does not run, at all, in Catalina, the current version of macOS—it won't even install, and if it were already installed, it wouldn't open. The same is and will be true for all future versions of macOS.
Of course Windows users would very much like to have a 64-bit update too, but from EA's perspective, the work to make it happen isn't strictly necessary (as it is for macOS), and so the cost may not be worth the benefit. After all, people can and still do buy and install Sims 3 in Windows even now. We can always hope EA decides to do it anyway, but there's no indication that it's happening any time soon.
