EA could be readying two more MySims releases in the form of MySims Action Bundle and MySims Beacon Bay.
Both of these were recently spotted on the official EA app. However, neither page had actual information or images.

MySims: Cozy Bundle review for Nintendo Switch

System: Switch
Release date: November 19, 2024
Developer: EA
Publisher: EA
When is a “cozy” game not, in fact, a cozy game? EA’s surprise re-release of the Wii-era MySims games for Nintendo Switch is a curious case of historical revisionism, given that both the original game and its follow-up MySims: Kingdom both pre-date the term by at least a decade. Nevertheless, the original games’ twee 2000’s aesthetic and alleged cozy credentials have merited a quick and dirty remaster job for the Nintendo’s hybrid. Nostalgic pull aside, the awkward holdovers that come with Wii Remote controls, and stiff competition within the genre dull the franchise’s grand re-appearance.
