The Sims 4 is 75% off, most expansions and game packs discounted on Origin

If dealing with a house filled with family members gets to be a little too much this Thanksgiving, you might want to relax by playing with a virtual house filled with virtual family members. Sure, they might pee their pants but you won't have to deal with uncomfortable political discussions, just the occasional word-bubble with a sailboat in it. This is an overlong way to tell you The Sims 4 is on sale for 75% off on Origin, and most expansions and DLC are discounted, too.

While the sale doesn't include the new Cats & Dogs expansion (shame, cuz I had fun being a terrible vet and trying to mate raccoons and cats), the Vampires expansion is 25% off and Get Together, City Living, and Get to Work are 60% off. A few game packs and bundles are discounted too (I'll just let you browse the full list).

Chris started playing PC games in the 1980s, started writing about them in the early 2000s, and (finally) started getting paid to write about them in the late 2000s. Following a few years as a regular freelancer, PC Gamer hired him in 2014, probably so he'd stop emailing them asking for more work. Chris has a love-hate relationship with survival games and an unhealthy fascination with the inner lives of NPCs. He's also a fan of offbeat simulation games, mods, and ignoring storylines in RPGs so he can make up his own.
