Origin is the game store run by Electronic Arts for PCs and Macs. It primarily—but not only—offers EA games. You don't need to pay for Origin Access to use Origin—you can buy games through Origin and play them normally without any subscription fee. Origin Access costs either $5 per month, or $30 per year.
FIFA 20 is st for release on September 27, but EA Access subscribers on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, as well as Origin Access subscribers on PC, can access the game a little early. The game is now available to subscribers of both subscription services to play for free, albeit with some caveats.
Publisher EA is offering a seven-day free trial of its PC free game library service Origin Access. To take advantage of the trial, you have to sign up for a monthly (US $5 / £4) or yearly (US $30 / £20) subscription, but EA says if you cancel before the seven days are up, you won't have to pay a dime.
Does The Sims 4 require an Origin™ client to play? Yes. You will need the Origin™ client and an EA Account to install and register The Sims 4. Once installed, you don't need to be online to play.

Re: Virus in Origin Client. Origin does not contain any malware. Sometimes anti-virus programs will give false positives. Unless you downloaded the Origin Client from another site and not directly from here.
ONE FREE TRIAL PER EA ACCOUNT. AFTER THE TRIAL, THE CURRENT ORIGIN ACCESS MONTHLY OR ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP FEE WILL BE BILLED. CANCEL DURING THE TRIAL PERIOD WITHOUT CHARGE.
Is EA Origin Free? It does not cost to download or use EA's Origin app. It does cost to buy games and use particular services, such as EA Access.
Safe mode downloading is now a permanent feature in Origin. That means that instead of having to manually turn it on to troubleshoot, all of your games will automatically download in safe mode. We've done this to prevent potential corruption of data when you download, so downloading should be much more reliable.

Re: Playing The Sims 4 without Origin
You should be able to register the game once, then swap Origin to Offline and play without further interaction. To start with, try restarting your Origin as an administrator, launch the game, then go to Offline mode and try to launch again.When is The Sims 5 released? There's no release date for The Sims 5 just yet, but a 2021 release is most likely. As 2020 is the simulator series' 20th anniversary there will likely be an announcement this year – though there's a slight chance of a late 2020 release too.
You have until 10am PST / 1pm EST / 5 pm BST on Tuesday, May 28 to claim a free copy of The Sims 4's standard edition, which normally goes for $40 on Origin. You don't need an Origin Access Basic or Premier subscription to claim it, and you'll get to keep your copy forever.
Re: Playing The Sims 4 without Origin
To start with, try restarting your Origin as an administrator, launch the game, then go to Offline mode and try to launch again.You can solve that by going to the Origin Tab on top left and selecting ”Go Offline”. After launching The Sims 4, the game will think that you're not connected to the internet and you'll be switched to Offline Mode. From there, just untick the ”Online Access” option and you'll play the game Offline.
The Sims 4 is free* to download and keep on Mac and PC until May 28, 2019! It's easier than ever to get started or get your friends in on the fun. Be powerful and free in The Sims 4!

Re: recurring payments
Also the purchase for the game may show as a reoccurring purchase in some cases, but it is not. If you purchased Sims 4 then you will only be charged once.The Gallery is a way for The Sims 4 players, or Simmers, to share their Households, Lots, and Rooms for everyone else to download and use in their own games. Now that it's cross-platform, you can create a Sims family on PC and someone across the world can enjoy your Household on their Xbox One.
