Game installation Q

Hi,

As you can tell by my badge, a newbie.

If I bought a game (The Sims 4) and downloaded it on my computer, but I want to delete it to save space, will I be able to download it again in the future as long as I log in to my EA account? Since I bought it, it should stay in my account forever right?

Thanks guys.

  • @Grawing  Any content you buy on your EA account stays on your EA account forever.  So yes, you can uninstall at some point and reinstall later without having to pay again.  That goes for DLC as well.

    Having said that, the Sims 4 base game is free now, so please don't spend any money on it.

    BTW, where/ how do I find what I posted before?

    @Grawing  There are several ways.  Bookmarking the thread is the simplest but isn't necessary.  You can also sign into this site, click your name in the upper-right corner of the screen, choose Profile, and in the desktop version at least, you'll land on a page that lists your last few posts as well as some other stats.  If you click View All towards the bottom of the page, you can see all your posts, sorted in reverse chronological order.
