Re: [Resolved] - Sims 4 Requires EA Play - April 13th, 2023

Same problem here! I don't understand why this happened and without any notice?! I own the game, why is EA trying to take more of my money for it?

  • I can still launch the game by either:

    • searching for it via the Start menu in Windows; or
    • searching the EA app for one of the add-ons I have installed and clicking 'Play' from the Add-on product page.

    One of those options might help you play for the time being.

    Hopefully it's just a temporary issue with the EA app (which is still quite buggy).

    Unfortunatley neither of these worked for me but thanks anyway :).

  • My EA App tells me I can no longer purchase the Sims 4 base game???? and I only own 1 game pack.  Oh, and I can't launch the game even though it's in my EA library.  I own all DLC (cost me a bloody fortune) and I am sick and tired of this!!!  Why do I have to launch a game I own and have paid over $1000 for through this poorly functioning App?  I want my own desktop launch for this game...period!!
