Sul Sul Simmer,
After seven years and more than fifty updates, The Sims Mobile team has some important news to share. This will be the final update for The Sims Mobile (TSM). From January 20, 2026, at 1:59 PM UTC, The Sims Mobile will no longer be accessible to play and will be sunset. This blog post explains what that means and what to expect in the months ahead.
First, we want to say thank you. The Sims Mobile and The Sims community as a whole are full of creativity, kindness, and imagination. You’ve amazed us with your stories, builds, and Sims. We’re proud to have shared this journey with you, and as a token of our appreciation, we’ve prepared a few surprises as we head into TSM’s final chapter.
Here’s a list of events part of TSM’s final update:
The final update for The Sims Mobile will be available to download from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. From this date forward, players will no longer be able to purchase packs or spend real money within TSM. Any existing SimCash, Simoleons, or Tickets can still be used until January 20, 2026.
In the final update, releasing on October 20th, 2025, everyone will receive unlimited energy to help them make the most of this time. This should make it easier to complete projects and enjoy the last few months of play.
The Sims Mobile will be delisted from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store on October 21st at 1:30 PM UTC. It will no longer be available for new downloads, but players who already have The Sims Mobile installed or have previously downloaded it can still update or re-download it.
If you are using the Google Play Store and have already downloaded The Sims Mobile, it should update as normal. If you have deleted it in the past and would like to redownload it, you can do so by going into your ‘My apps & games' section, then into your ‘app library’ to find it.
If you are using the Apple App Store, you will need to open the Apple App Store, access ‘My Purchases” and search for The Sims Mobile to find it. If you are having trouble updating it this way, try deleting the app and redownloading it using this method again.
All Build Mode and Create A Sim (CAS) items will unlock for every player. These won’t be limited by levels, so that means EVERYTHING Build mode and CAS are available. We want to give everyone the opportunity to build their dream home, design their perfect Sims, and experience everything TSM has to offer before the servers close. We would love to see what you create if you would like to share it with us.
The servers will shut down at 1:59 PM UTC. After this time, The Sims Mobile will no longer be playable. Because game progress is stored on our servers, saved data will no longer be available.
Yes. Events will continue to run as usual, so you can still earn Simoleons and items during the final months.
Yes. If you already have TSM installed, you can keep playing until January 20, 2026.
No. TSM requires online servers to play, so playing in any form will no longer be possible after this date.
If you downloaded TSM before it is delisted, you can re-download it from your app store library until January 20, 2026.
All purchases you’ve made before October 20 will still work in-game right up until January 20, 2026. After that date, The Sims Mobile will no longer be playable, and any leftover currency will not be eligible for a refund.
From January 6, every Build Mode and Create A Sim item will be free for everyone playing. We recommend using your currency and tickets before then.
On behalf of the entire Sims Mobile team, thank you for sharing this amazing journey with us. We hope you enjoy the final update and that these final months allow everyone to finish projects, make memories, and celebrate their Sims.
Thanks (Dag dag)
