'''The Sims 3: Deluxe''' is the first compilation of The Sims 3 games. It includes ''[[The Sims 3]]'' base game and the second [[expansion pack]], ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions|Ambitions]].'' It was released late September 2010. Technical game details are the same as for these two games.

''Start off creating Sims with unique personalities, customizing everything from their appearances to their personalities to their homes, and then share them online. Make their dreams come true—or don’t! Then widen their horizons with killer new career tracks. Will your Sim be the town hero or the neighborhood nuisance? Whatever direction they take, their future is in your hands!''

*''The Sims 3: Deluxe'' is the first compilation not to have an exclusive loading screen and not to be installed together at the same time, as it includes ''The Sims 3'' and ''The Sims 3: Ambitions'' installation discs separately, whereas ''[[The Sims Deluxe Edition]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2 Deluxe Edition]]'' includes an exclusive loading screen and a single disc. (or a bonus DVD for The Sims 2 Deluxe Edition and other ''[[The Sims 2]]'' complications which include it)(e.g. LoadingThe loading screen logo will say ''The Sims Deluxe Edition'' instead of ''[[The Sims]]'' only and in The Sims 3: Deluxe it will either say ''[[The Sims 3]]'' (without Ambitions installed) and ''The Sims 3: Ambitions'' instead of ''The Sims 3: Deluxe''). This is also the case for all compilations for ''The Sims 3'', which have been issued as physical releases with the seperate discs for their respective games; or as download bundles in Origin; the game originally released the latest in the set will have their loading screen logo appear. EA have not given a full explanation as to why this has occured; but a likely theory is due to each game DVD now having 32-bit versions for both PC and Mac on the same disc; likely causing storage space complications. This was never the case for compilations for ''[[The Sims]]'' or ''[[The Sims 2]]'', which were issued in seperate packages for the seperate platforms and never suffered this issue.
