EA Prepares to Shut Down Mobile Hit "The Simpsons: Tapped Out"

EA's long-running mobile game, The Simpsons: Tapped Out, is nearing its end. After a twelve-year run, the game will be sunsetting in early 2025.

Shutdown Timeline:

  • In-app purchases are already disabled.
  • October 31st, 2024: The game will be removed from app stores.
  • January 24th, 2025: The game servers will shut down permanently.

EA expressed gratitude to players for their decade-long support, highlighting the successful partnership with The Simpsons and The Walt Disney Company.

One Last Chance to Play?

For those unfamiliar with the game, The Simpsons: Tapped Out is a city-building game where players rebuild Springfield after Homer's accidental nuclear meltdown. Players manage iconic characters, expand the town to Springfield Heights, and even run the Kwik-E-Mart. The game is freemium, featuring regular updates tied to the show and holidays. Donuts serve as the in-game currency to accelerate progress.

If you're interested in experiencing The Simpsons: Tapped Out before its servers go offline, download it from the Google Play Store (and other relevant app stores) while you still can.
