A few months ago The Sims Team has made an announcement that they’ll be releasing a 64bit-only update for The Sims 4 Base Game, making it exclusive and playable only for users who have a 64bit operating system. The update, which was meant to be released in June 2019 was delayed, but it seems that it’s finally coming with the release of The Sims 4 Discover University Expansion Pack according to Origin.

It’s also expected that The Sims 4 Legacy Edition (which was explained HERE) should be released soon for 32bit players that should support The Sims 4 and all of the packs that have been released until Discover University.
