EA and whatever is left of the shell that is Maxis sent over word that they have launched The Sims Mobile. The Sims Mobile brings players the experience from The Sims, where players can shape their Sims’ lifestyles by creating personalities, developing a range of relationships and designing the world they play in from their mobile phone or tablet. It also probably comes with a boatload of in-app purchases because this is a mobile game. And probably loot boxes because, you know…
The Sims Mobile brings lets players guide the stories of their Sims’ lives through career choice, hobbies, relationships, and more. Players can explore new ways to interact with other players’ Sims at parties or around town and use Stickers to let them know if they’re Cute, Hot, or Fabulous. Relationships can be initiated as friendly or romantic with other Sims, while taking risky actions for higher rewards, such as going in for a kiss or experimenting with a new recipe. Players can also start families for their Sims, creating a path for future generations where they can pass down heirlooms that have powerful gameplay benefits.
“In The Sims Mobile, we’ve dramatically increased the fidelity and quality of Sims and the various environments they play in.” said Creative Director, Brandon Gill. “Creating unique, completely customised Sims, building a dream home, and exploring exciting careers have always been tentpoles of The Sims franchise. With The Sims Mobile, we’re able to bring players those time-loved features with new, highly detailed customisation options in Create-A-Sim and Build Mode. Players will find that new guided narratives and immersive social features give The Sims Mobile a unique blend of delightful gameplay experiences and social platform-inspired connections.”
In The Sims Mobile, players can create one-of-a-kind Sims, build homes, and play together with friends as they shape their Sims’ lifestyle. Jump in the game and start by customizing Sims to have distinct appearances with everything from their hair color and style to fashion and accessory choices.

After building the perfect home personalized with furniture, decorations, appliances, or themed collections, invite friends’ Sims over to show off the amazing space, or check out other Sims’ homes by attending their parties.
