Did you try to put the EA app in offline mode then run the game? This worked for me

@xdkero Yep, tried that, it just brought up the offline mode message on EA App.

I was playing the Sims 4 without any problems when I realized that the 2/25/25 update had been released.  So I exited my game to install the update.  The game didn't launch so I rebooted and from that moment on I have been receiving the "Failed to launch game. An error on our end caused the launch to fail.  Try again a little later."

That was around 1 pm, Wednesday, February 26, 2025.  None of the proposed fixes I've seen here helped me.  I have not reinstalled anything because most have not endorsed that as a solution.  

Current EA app version: 13.405.0.5918 (93314-43e26d8bd7)
Error Report ID: a32f8942-3e3c-4f21-bae4-39e0a1ad418e

Hello everyone, 

I have the same issue, or kind off. 
For the last couple of months I've experience this issue, after I finish installing an update, when I try to launch the Sims 4 an error pops up saying "An error on our end, caused the launch to fail. Try again later". At this point, I tried all day long and still I can't play. 

I tried restarting the app, I tried the app recovery, I tried removing the Sims 4 folder from the Electronics Art folder, still nothing, I tried repairing Sims 4, I tried uninstalling and then re-installing every single pack, I tried removing only my mods folder, but even after all of this I still can't play. 

I also have the EA app running as administrator. 

Usually (because as I said it happens after every update) the issue is fixed on its own within 2-3 days minimum, but I just find it a bit annoying because I just want to play the Sims 4 and I want to enjoy the new pack that came out (Business and Hobbies) :( 
Any help would be appreciated. 
Thank you for your time. 

Hi there, still having issues getting into my Sims 3 game. I thought maybe because of the conversion to the EA forums it would just take a little bit to get a response. However, nothing has changed on my end. I still have yet to be able to open Sims 3 on my new PC even after my old EA account was merged with my current account. If I need to send any updated EA app reporter IDs or logs, let me know.

I tried the first few options but none of that works. I am just gonna reinstall the sims and ea game to see if that works before I create a new Windows profile. Seems to be an issue with EA game and connecting to the server. 

I keep getting Error to launch and I’ve done everything that they stated above and it’s still not working

YOU ABSOLUTE LEGEND. 

I have no clue why but EA must hate MSI Afterburner cuz after doing this, it instantly fixed it.
