Simpsons: Tapped Out Shuts Down After 12 Years

The popular mobile game, which allowed players to rebuild Springfield, has been permanently removed following EA's decision to end its run.

The Simpsons: Tapped Out, a mobile game launched in 2012, officially shut down on January 24, 2025, after nearly 13 years of operation.
EA announced in September 2024 that the game would be removed from app stores in October 2024, with servers going offline in January 2025.
Over its lifespan, the game featured 308 updates, 831 characters, and 1,463 questlines, drawing praise for its humor and voice acting by the original Simpsons cast.
Fans have expressed sadness over the closure, sharing memories and screenshots of their custom Springfields on social media and forums.
Some players are exploring the possibility of fan-run servers to revive the game, while others speculate this could pave the way for new Simpsons-related projects.
