I've merged here comments from different topics related to issues to purchase and/or install The Sims 4 StrangerVille.

We are troubleshooting these issues here. If Origin is still misbehaving for you, please, join the conversation there!

[This discussion was created from comments split from: When can we buy Strangerville? and some other threads.]

    Hey! Im in the Uk I had the same issue- add it to your wishlist then go there and then you can actually click buy! I was so stressed! Hope it works for you too! xx

    I can't get the page to load up. I'll click Strangerville and it'll flash the screen for a second and then go to Sim base game.

    I cleared the cache files and it's still not letting me get to that page. I've tried the app and the web page. Neither one will stay on the strangerville page.

    I did this too. It's tough and it took me a few tries, but it can be done.

    It's released now, but origin doesn't seem to want me to buy it! It keeps on redirecting me to other games... can someone report this issue to someone who can fix this??? :'(

    The game is strange enough... I didn't think we'd have to play a game to get it!

    I had no problems in the uk. I had put in my credit card details in my profile (I never leave them in between packs) and was able to download it before 5.45 uk. It's now playable in my game so now off to try it out.

    Try waiting a few more mins, it's probably loaded with internet traffic rn and the fact that there's always bound to be a few hiccups when adding something new on Origin or wherever you purchase it. :) It will be tweaked and smoothed out with time.

    Go to Edge and get it. That's what I had to do. It was redirecting me to the digital deluxe page, too, not base game. I went to edge, pulled up origin, and got it. Then restarted Origin and it is now downloading.
