Hey guys!
I’ve been getting a lot of questions on Facebook, Twitter and even Origin on how to get The Sims 4 Create a Sim Demo. I decided to make this post in order to increase your chances of getting this Demo.
Please Note:
- We do not guarantee that you will get the Demo after following Tips below.
- CAS Demos are being sent out via E-Mail (notification) and Origin on a daily basis.
- Do not bother SimGurus or anyone else working on The Sims 4. They do not have the power to give you the code.
- Patience is a virtue. Sooner or later everyone will get this Demo.
Tip #1
Open your Origin Account. Click on Origin on the top left and select ”Account and Privacy”.
Select ”Privacy Settings” on the tabs on left and scroll down until you see ”Contact Preferences”. Then, check ”The Sims” box.
After you’re done, select ”Update” and restart your Origin.
Tip #2
Go to TheSims.com. Find the ”Newsletter Signup” box and enter your details. Make sure your e-mail matches with your Origin e-mail!
Tip #3
Make sure you register all The Sims 3 games you own in order to prove that you’re a Simmer.
If you didn’t, go to TheSims3.com > Register a Game. You can also register The Sims 3 Games on Origin by clicking Origin on the top left and selecting ”Redeem Product Code”
How do I do if I don’t have The Sims for PC? I only have for PS3, and the code is expired and I can’t buy another ond because it’s not possible anymore. ..
You MUST have Sims 3 for PC and minimum 2 expansions. 😉
Expansions aren’t necessary that much. The least you could own is The Sims 3 Base Game.
What happens if you have expansions and not the base game on it
You can’t play TS3 without the actual base game…
I have The Sims 3 Base Game but I couldn’t find it around my house so is it okay if I registered 2 expansion games?
Hi! In the first tip, Do I need to select ”share my information with selected partner” or just selecting contact me about Ea….. or nothing.
-Thanks and sorry for the bad English 🙂
Select both for better results! 🙂
Thanks! 🙂
It doesn’t work…. 😥
There’s no way getting the Demo right after following these steps. Like I said, give it some time 😛
I have not bought the game via Origin…Is that problem or not?
As long as you have a valid Registration Code it’s not a problem 🙂
I didn’t get a ”Redeem Product Code” with a verification on email….Is there any other way to get it?
Redeem Product Code is an option in Origin Program, not on verification mail.
if you bought through Origin directly does it automatically register the game?
When it will come for download?
I didn’t get ”Redeem Product Code” with verification on e-mail…what should i do? 🙁 🙁 🙁
Redeem Product Code is an option in Origin Program, not Origin verification e-mail.
http://prntscr.com/41mhv7 This is 1000 time i tried and it shows the same 🙁 :-(( 😥
Put dashes ( these -) between the code as it is displayed on the case and in the example of a code under the box you write the code in.
Try registering it on TheSims3.com and then go to Origin > ”Reload My Games”.
Hope it helps!
I did it…It works…And there’s no demo…
“We do not guarantee that you will get the Demo after following Tips below.”
Duky you have to have a but a – after every fourth letter like this GZWE-EK8L-FJA5-7LMM-RFPQ so this is your code in the correct way, hope it helped 😀
Yayyy, I have the Sims 4 Demo. Well now I can try this out instead of looking for more wedding stuff on the internet. 😀
Lucky you 🙂
Omg lucky when did you get it
REALLY? ALL? 😐
If you’re talking about the last tip, read it fully: ”all The Sims 3 games you own ” > TS3 games YOU own.
Sorry! 😀
I got 9 Sims Games. It’s okay?
Yes! 😀
Ok! I’ll be patient. I’ll announce you if I get it! 😉
(Sorry for my English)
I only have, 10 Sims games. Is that enough to be considered a Simmer? :laugh:
Of course! 😀
I only have ts3 base game and generations is that going to be enough ?
Yes. :yes:
i still havent got mine yet T___T *cries* i hope i will get it soon ~ 😥
I did everything you just said. I’ve pre-ordered The Sims 4 via Origin and I have 8 EP and 5 SP but my The Sims 3 base game and some of the packs are in my other account, I can’t add to my main account, so what do you think about this situation?
I’m confused 😀
If i’m already subscribed to the newsletter, I must skip the TIP #2?
I done everything you said,and when i enter TS3 serial number in ”Redeem Product Code” it says that is already used and it gives me link for FAQ.I don’t understand help 😥
I have sims 2 games not bought from origin, when i put the code doesn´t work, do i need to have sims 3 games serials?
yes its very important 😀 😀 😮
Whenever I try to sign up for the newsletter, it tells me “We are sorry, you do not meet the criteria for registration.” Why does it keep telling me that? Am I too young to register? :-((
You have to be 17 I think, so if you just put the year 1996 for your birthday year it should work. (if you are born after year then you might have to do this bc the game says it has adult themes and stuff when it doesn’t really.) 🙂 Hope you get it to work!
[…] friends over at Sims Community have uploaded a list of ways to help you get the CAS demo quicker. It’s also worth noting that not everyone will get this early release of the […]
I only have four of TS3 games. Do you think this will affect my chance of getting the demo sense I don’t have many of the games?
It doesn’t matter as long as you have a Sims game registered 🙂
when i sign up for the news letter how come it says “We are sorry, you do not meet the criteria for registration”? 😀
Your age may not be eligible for The Sims Franchise since the game is rated 12+
What if my game already is registered on thesims3.com
Can i still register it on origin?
If your thesims3.com and Origin email is the same, all games you registered on thesims3.com should automatically appear on Origin.
But… I have a chance if I’m Romanian? 😕
It doesn’t matter where you live.
look I been waiting for 5 days I still don’t have the demo
I only have TS3, TS3 Pets, TS3 Create a Pet Demo, and TS3 Seasons. Do you think this will affect my chance of getting the demo sense I don’t have many of the games?
Hey! I was wondering if it matters that I only have four games of TS3… Do you think my chances will be low sense I don’t have many games?
i already has a sims 3 account on the website on an email i do not longer use and how do i change that email on the account to one i use now???
I HAVE 8 GAMES IS THAT OKAY
Yes!
I HAVE 9
i hope i get this demo 🙂 LIKE IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS GAME
how long does it take to get the demo
Can you still get the demo if you don’t have any games in your Origin game library? Does that affect your chances of getting it or is it totally random?
It’s totaly random, but these are tips to increase chances of getting the demo. Nothing of these things is obligatory.
I have a lot of the Sims 3 games, but I’ve only registered 4 games so far because I can’t find the other serial codes for my games, would It still be possible to get the download even If I’ve only registered 4 games?
It doesn’t matter if you register the games or not. These tips are a matter of lottery. Eventually you’ll get the demo,
Where will it show up? In an email or on my games in Origin? ?:-)
Apparently I already registered my The Sims 3 base game, but it isn’t in any of my accounts… anyway, I have Simcity 2012, will it help? 🙂
No. Only Sims 3 games will work.
And now we wait.. :yes:
i been registering sims games way before origin Sims1 with all expansions Sims2 all expansions also Sims3 i only have the base game because i really didnt get into it…..i have SimCity4 and SimCity 2013 but like they said if its random who knows… personally im patient id rather wait till the full demo comes out…
I have already installed all of my Sims 3 games and it won’t allow me to regester the games because the codes have already been used. Any tips?
My game is torrented is that problem?And i used serials from internet.
My game is torrented is that problem?And i used serials from internet?
You MUST have original copies of the game. It will not work if the games are torrented.
Ok…Tnx
Hi,
I was wondering if my emails are the same, but I always get the unable to connect to orgin message, affect my chances? Is there a way to fix this issue
Hi Do you think its only people who have pre-order on Origin that get more of a chance? I have ordered mind of game.
No, it isn’t. My best friend didn’t pre-order it and she got it a day or two after EA started sending out invites. It’s all a matter of lottery and has nothing to do with whether your follow the tips above or not; or whether you pre-ordered the game. These tips are just a way to make your chances greater, but they aren’t guaranteed. I hope this helps!
Hi… I done these steps so I hope I get the demo 🙂 thanks 😀 (EA please give me the demo 🙂
I did everything hope this works but knowning my luck im never lucky enough to get things like this :-(( 😥 😥
btw i like the emoji’s :yes: 😀 :-)) :-)) :laugh :yes:
i don’t have the code for the base game, just my two eps. do i have to have the base game, or are my eps enough?
I kept seeing all these posts about it and I felt bad because I was like “oh man, I probably won’t get it” because I never got an email. As it turns out it’s been sitting in my games since July 10. I was on the SimCity beta so I guess I should have checked… Oops. :shame:
I have done all of the steps, but for my games, I only have the base game, Late Night and High-End Loft Stuff. Will that be enough, or not? If it is, please give me the Sims 4 Demo because I am obsessed with the Sims. Please Kay Thanks! [One last question, Does EA know when the Demo will be out for everyone yet?
Rumor has it that It’ll be out for everyone next month around this time: August 12th or 13th.
So are they giving it out gradually to people until the 12th of August, or did they only give the demo out on that day, to the people who got it early? hopefully that makes sense lol xx
They’re giving out to random people gradually until it’s available to everyone, New people get access to it everyday. My best friend has it she didn’t pre-order TS4. I hope that helps. (:
I don’t own a copy of the base game that I can register, a friend who didn’t like the game gave it to me, but I have many expansion packs I bought through origin. Is this going to be a problem?
I’m so frustrated with myself now. When I first got the base game when it came out we my husband registered it on his e-mail. Now I had to register all my expansions….and I have all of them…back onto his origin account again. Currently his odds are better than mine because I only have Sim City and the pre=order of Sims 4 sitting in my Origin Library. Aww well it’s probably a good thing I know his password. 😀
How do I know if my games are registered? I think they are, but I can’t remember
If you’re on a mac are you basically guaranteed not to get an early copy of the demo? :sweat:
Is there a possibility that pre-ordering The Sims 4 Limited, Premium or Collectors Edition will increase your chance of getting The Sims 4 CAS Demo? I’m not desperate for this demo but I would like to try a part of the game out before it get it in full. 🙂
