Can you play sims on Macbook? The Sims 4 for Mac is a digital-only release. The installation discs in all packaged editions of The Sims 4 are not Mac compatible, but players who buy a packaged PC-only version can still redeem the code in the box to access the Mac version through Origin. I have just brought a MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2011) and I want to play The Sims 3 without using the External SuperDrive. I've seen online retailers selling The Sims 3 as a download, i.e. No CD, so I know it is possible. It may be worth mentioning that I have installed all the Expansion Packs and Stuff Packs.
I have the 13 inch Macbook Air and I have NEVER played the Sims on my Macbook before or my other laptop. I need to understand how this Origin thing works because I know that it says you need that to play The Sims. The point is that my Macbook does not have a disk drive to put the disk in. Once The Sims 4 comes out, what do I need to do in order to get The Sims 4 for my Macbook? Please help and also by informing me how this Origin process works. Thanks for your support!
