'''''The Sims 2: University Life Collection''''' includes ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', ''[[The Sims 2: Teen Style Stuff]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2: IKEA Home Stuff]]''. A PC version was announced on [[TheSims2.com]] website on July 8, 2009, and released in North America on August 24, 2009. Although some promotional images suggested that it was available for Mac, this version has not been released yet.
 
Many players became frustrated that the collection came with ''Teen Style Stuff'' because the new college students could not use these new items. There were rumors and speculation that a new, bona fide version of University Life Collection would be released in late 2010, with a new stuff pack for Young Adults included, but that did not happen. There were other rumors that EA had promised some form of special gift for their apparent slip-up.

'''''The Sims 2: Fun with Pets Collection''''' includes ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]'', ''[[The Sims 2: Family Fun Stuff]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2: Mansion & Garden Stuff]]''. There is no added or bonus content included in the pack. ''[[The Sims 2]]'' base game is required in order to install or run this product.
 
The collection was released in North America on January 12, 2010, and is so far the last ''The Sims 2'' product sold by Electronic Arts.

<blockquote>Dear Origin gamer,
 
 
Your current version of The Sims 2 will lose technical support on July 22, 2014. We want you to have the most up-to-date version of The Sims 2 in your collection, so you will see a brand new addition to your Origin library: The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection.

Line 311 ⟶ 304:
The ''Ultimate Collection'' includes all expansions and stuff packs for ''The Sims 2'', regardless of whether or not the player owned them before, along with all of the game [[patch]]es. There is no information about when the collection will be released to non-Origin players.
 
[https://twitter.com/matejel54/status/489371352462536705 A Tweet was sent out] on July 16, 2014 releasing information from a chat with a producer. The chat conversation talked about ''The Sims 2: Ultimate Collection'' and whether it was going to be purchasable. It has been confirmed that ''The Sims 2: Ultimate Collection'' will be available for purchase by the public, although if ''The Sims 2 '' is in the Origin library it will come for free.
 
From July 23, 2014 to July 31, 2014, the game could be permanently added to anyone's Origin account for free, whether or not they have the base game, by redeeming the product code <tt>I-LOVE-THE-SIMS</tt>.<ref>http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-get-the-sims-2-ultimate-collection/</ref>
 
''The Sims 2: Ultimate Collection'' uses the icon for ''[[The Sims 2: Mansion & Garden Stuff]]'', launches from "Sims2EP9.exe" (the same as ''Mansion & Garden Stuff''), and the main menu uses the ''Mansion & Garden Stuff'' logo. However, the initial loading screen shows the logo for ''The Sims 2: Fun with Pets Collection''. This is because ''Ultimate Collection'' is largely a compilation of compilations. It includes [[Compilations of The Sims 2#The Sims 2: Double Deluxe|''Double Deluxe'']] and the [[Compilations of The Sims 2#The Sims 2: University Life Collection|''University Life'']], [[Compilations of The Sims 2#The Sims 2: Best of Business Collection|''Best of Business'']], and [[Compilations of The Sims 2#The Sims 2: Fun with Pets Collection|''Fun with Pets'']] collections, as well as the expansion and stuff packs that are not part of these collections.<ref>[http://simscommunity.net/2014/07/18/the-sims-2-ultimate-collection-info-facts/ The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection – Info & Facts!] at Sims Community</ref>
