MySims Apple Arcade Release
Posted the morning of October 7th 2025 on all of The Sims social media accounts, The Sims team announced that MySims and MySims Kingdom will be receiving ports to mobile phones, specifically IOS devices, and will be available through Apple Arcade. Apple Arcade is Apple’s subscription service, allowing subscribers to download many exclusive games to play on their iPhones and Apple devices. Apple Arcade is currently $6.99 USD per month, or your local currency’s equivalent, and has 200+ games available for download.
What Is MySims?
MySims is a spin-off series of games; Inspired by the mainline franchise and originally created for the Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS, the series is more quest-based than the original The Sims games of the time, and the style is incredibly different from the PC series and even other console versions, intending to appeal to a wider market.
MySims (2007)
MySims originally released for the Nintendo Wii and PC on September 18th, 2007, and received praise for being a widely enjoyed family-friendly game with an appealing cutesy visual style. There was also a version available through the Nintendo DS, although this was a different version of the game rather than a direct port.
MySims story follows a dilapidated town with residents packing up and leaving, led by Mayor Rosalyn P. Marshall, where a new resident (You!) arrives to fix things up, build businesses and homes, and rejuvenate the town to its former glory and bring back those who left.
MySims Kingdom (2008)
MySims Kingdom was released a year later October 28th 2008. Also receiving similar praise while expanding upon the original controls and gameplay aspects released just a year earlier, MySims Kingdom first showcased the expansive nature of the MySims universe, allowing developers to reuse characters and create new ones to reflect new stories and alternative universes.
In MySims Kingdom, you are the newly crowned Wandolier of a kingdom ruled by an old king named King Roland, given the task of helping the residents of the kingdom with their troubles and their construction issues. You use magic, essences, and scrolls to learn and build new furniture and buildings for residents to keep them happy, earn King Points, and unlock new areas!
Possible Future Ports and Re-Releases?
While there is currently no news of a port or re-release of any other titles, there is a good bit of material that would allow for new bundles! Other games not yet ported to newer editions of PC, the Nintendo Switch, or Apple Arcade include MySims Party, MySims Agents, and MySims SkyHeroes! These all feature new and refreshed characters, quests, storylines, and even gameplay mechanics individual to their game!
Coming to Apple Arcade November 6th, 2025!
The MySims Apple Arcade release is coming November 6th, 2025 to Apple Arcade. There is currently no announcement of an Android release, but we will update you if we see or hear more! The game itself is included with Apple Arcade, which is $6.99 per month for a single user but also includes options for multiple users under a shared family plan.
