Language change
Hello everyone! I have an issue with the language of my game. The problem is that I purchased The Sims 4 Base game 7 years ago in Russia and my game always has been in that language. But for la...

Thank you very much.
Yeah, I believe it could work, may try steam as well, but should hopefully get some help with it from EA support before to try with Origin.
I hope it is possible to rewrite new Swedish version of a game instead of Russian base game. And it seems I can directly buy it at Origin. The only problem is how to install it correctly for Swedish one to work, and not old purchase.
@AlexandraSverige Normally, to switch Sims 4's language, you just pick a new language in Origin and then repair, that is if the repair doesn't start automatically. At worst, you'd need to uninstall the game and reinstall in Swedish. Your saves and other content should work fine in any language.
I wish it was that simple. But unfortunately some regions are language blocked. For example, in England you may get only English language. And in all East Europe there are just three options: Russian, Czech and Polish. So game offers me to change only to those two. Not really my goal.
@AlexandraSverige Yes, I understand that, that's kind of the whole point of this thread. What I was trying to say was, once you've bought a copy of the global version and it's on your account, switching to Swedish or whatever language you want is as simple as choosing that language in Origin and repairing.
I see! Yeah, it is basically what I am going to do. Just wanted to be sure that I will be able to activate a new version of base game. I guess I need some cancellation of an old version first to be able to do that.
