[FAQ] The Sims 4 and Chromebooks
Does Sims 4 run on a Chromebook ?
No, the Sims 4 does not run on a Chromebook. Sims 4 needs either macOS or Windows to run. There's also a console version available for XBox 1 and PS4.

I just got a Samsung Chromebook, And i have been planning on downloading the sims 4 ever since ive heard its going to be created...
And My chromebook i guess has its own Google Os... Or whatever, But i was wondering that if i download the sims 4 off of orgin *this will be in the begining of november)
So my question is, Will it work if i download it?
And Do you have to choose os or windows? If you do, Which one should i choose?
And if it doesnt work would i be able to get a refund?
this is the first computer ive used that i have to download it off orgin and that is so confusing.
thanks for the help :heart:
I have the same problem, My chromebook is a newer version. I have HP though. It won't let me download any games accept the ones in the chrome web store. I want Sims 4 though!!
Sims 4 does not run on chromebooks. You need a Windows computer as Indy said above
can you play sims on a cloudbook?
No, those are not made for gaming at all.
- But will it ever be available to chrome books HP
we are having same problem. hopefully developers will make available.
You may be able to if you can get a PHYSICAL copy.
You can get a usb CD reader, Wine(a Windows emulator for chromebooks), and a 16gb SD
It will take a while for you to get Wine set up,i might add.
If not you can find a old office compter to run it on.(It has very low specs)
- It would be almost impossible to run Sims on a chrome book. The hard drive is to small to run it. Chromebooks are not the same as laptops and are not meant for PC level gaming. They are meant primarily for web based applications
I have a samsung chrombook and i want sims 4 sooooo bad like really bad. can u help???☹️
Chromebooks don't support The Sims 4 at this moment.
So the only way you can play is on MAC or Windows.I have the sims 4 disc but I have chrome. If you have the disc, is there a way you can install it on chrome ??
i have an hp chromebook, and i really want the sims!!! it wont let you get any downloads except if its off the chrome webstore!!!! this stupid computer doesnt do anything useful, i might as well not even have it!
Chromebooks have their own OS so yes, that's how it works. Just as Windows RT only has programs from the Windows Store and ipads only have apps from the Apple Store.
how do I GET THE SIMS fooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur iv'e tried to get that game for 5 years ppppppplllllllllleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaassssssssseeeeeeeeeeee tell me where the truck I can get the god darn game.
The game has only been out for almost two years so no idea why you searched that long.
You can buy the game through Origin.https://www.origin.com/en-us/store/
ik it sucks! i would pay $50 if i could download sims 4 on my chromebook.
- I have the same problem and it's really frustrating☹️( I was wondering will sims 4 ever be available for my hp chrome book?
Hi @Laureng04
most probably not cause they are usually underpowered for the game.
My first guess would be no, just because Chromebooks aren't made to game on. So they aren't as powerful to run a game like The Sims 4 on.
Also there aren't many people working on Chromebooks. But who knows, maybe they will add it, but I wouldn't count on it.
Who knows maybe the new The Sims app game will make it's way to the Chromebooks...
same
- same
- me too
