Sims Mobile to Host Final Party Before 2024 Shutdown.

After seven years of creating homes, shaping Sims, and living virtual lives on mobile devices, The Sims Mobile is coming to a close. EA has confirmed the servers will be taken offline on January 20, 2026, ending the game's journey that began with its launch in 2018.

The news arrived alongside the game's final update, which is now available. This last patch introduces a series of farewell events, unlimited energy, and one final celebration before the servers are permanently switched off.

What's included in the final update?

A final series of events will run leading up to January. The Eerie Autumn Festival Pass is active now and continues through December 19th. After that, a rotation of themed content like Cozier Home, Hallways Ready, and Season's Greetings will take place.

Several Wumple’s Wishlist quests are also making a comeback, offering players smaller, weekly time-limited goals. The last major event, New Year’s Dock and Roll, will be available from December 29th through January 10th. The final Wumple’s Wishlist quest will conclude on January 17th.

The development team has also prepared a special send-off. On January 6th, 2026, every Build Mode and Create A Sim item in The Sims Mobile will become available to all players, completely removing any level restrictions.

Is The Sims Mobile still on your phone?

The game has already been removed from the Google Play Store. If you already have it installed, however, you can continue to play and re-download it from your app library until the shutdown date.

While you can no longer make real-money purchases, any existing in-game currency like SimCash, Simoleons, or Tickets can still be used until the end. The final update's unlimited energy feature allows you to complete your storylines or finalize building projects. For further details, you can refer to the official FAQ on the game's website.
