Aspyr ships The Sims 2 Pets for Mac

291569570 addf998362 m Aspyr ships The Sims 2 Pets for MacAspyr today announced that the Mac version of The Sims 2 Pets from Electronic Arts has shipped to retail outlets nationwide. The Sims 2 Pets is the fourth expansion pack for The Sims 2 and is set to land on retail shelves nationwide for Mac within weeks of the title’s release for PCs and consoles. The Sims 2 Pets was developed for the Mac by Aspyr Studios, Aspyr’s internal development team, under license from EA.

Players will also be able to teach their pet new tricks, take them for a romp in the park, outfit them with new pet accessories and even give them a job! As in real life, your Sims’ pet will require care and training. A neglected cat with an urge to scratch might claw up your new couch if you aren’t careful, and leaving your dog unattended near a freshly planted flower bed probably isn’t wise!

The Sims 2 Pets is rated “T” for “Teen” by the ESRB and is available for the Mac at USD$34.99.
