A game from The Sims series is fading away before our eyes. Electronic Arts sweetens the final months of its life

Sims fans, particularly those who enjoyed playing on their phones and tablets, may be disappointed to hear that Electronic Arts is shutting down The Sims Mobile. The game will no longer be playable after January 20, 2026, at 6:59 am Pacific Time.

Today, October 21st, the game is being removed from the App Store and Google Play. If you’ve already downloaded it, you’ll still be able to find and install it from your library of apps.

Although The Sims Mobile has only a few months left, the devs have filled it with many events for users and released the final update. The update dropped yesterday, and now all fans have unlimited energy, so they can finally tackle their dream projects. Along with the patch, two events have started: “Eerie Autumn” and “Cozier Home.” In total, EA has planned 14 events, the list of which can be found in the company’s announcement.

Two weeks before it closes for good, on January 6, 2026, the creators of The Sims Mobile will make all building and character creation tools free for everyone to use. This means you’ll have unlimited freedom to design houses and create Sims! The Sims Mobile first launched in March 2018.
