does the Sims 4 come as a disk

I want to order The Sims 4 but does it come in the mail as a disk or is just something you download?

  • @MadiJara TS4 does come in disc. I bought my as disc but I redeemed the code and in Origin and installed as digital download from Origin. You have to have Origin to play so even if you install from disc you will have to install Origin. Origin is the DRM for TS4 as TS4 does not have SecROM or SafeDisc DRM.

    Hi @tghgbnht54rr3,

    I couldn't say for sure. It may depend on the retailer that's sending it to you but usually it's a disk with a code. You can double-check that though by linking in with the retailer themselves to confirm.

    In the meantime I'll lock this thread here as it's been necro'd.

    Thanks,
