Help Downloading sims 4 on macbook

Why can’t I download the sims 4 on my MacBook Pro? It’s a brand new computer (the 2021) and I’ve downloaded origin but it’s not giving me an option to download the sims 4? I’ve had it on my previous pc computer and I’ve followed all the steps but it’s still not giving me the option to download.

mac

Have you previously bought the game or paid for an EA Play subscription? https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Mac/-EA-Play-is-not-available-for-Mac-How-to-buy-The-Sims-4/m-p/8866393#U8866393

Ok. Is it showing in your Origin games library? Have you cleared any filters that may be hiding it? If it is showing, what option is it giving you in the orange button where you would normally click download?
