Looking at EA & Origin Web sites Sims 4 requires a discrete video card which is available on 15” MacBook Pro and some but not all iMacs. It is possible to use an external GPU with any modern Mac that has Thunderbolt 3 ports. See this Apple article for more information. Additionally, the Sims programs tend to be very CPU and memory intensive so a fast processor and lots of RAM is recommended. Personally, I’d go for a 15” MBPro or 17” iMac.
