You can install the game on an external drive but not your user data in the Sims 4 folder as the game will always look in Documents > Electronic Arts for the data.
Hi @Sofartsie,
Yes, you can do it but you have to uninstall and reinstall the game.
Please note that external hard drives are slower, so you can face some performance issues with the game installed there.

Sorry, two years later.
Doesn't that mean you can't run the game if it always looks for User Data somewhere else?
will I have to redownload all my expansion packs and such or will the packs folder also be transferred to the external drive?
so if i uninstall my game and reinstall it to the usb, will the packs folder also move to the usb? if not how do i move it to the usb?
