One person commented on Downdetector about the problems. They said: “This is not fun its signed me out of my ea app.”

Another person tweeted: “Anyone else’s ea app just not showing sims 4 at all?” And a third commented: “Huge update to the sims 4 released today but I can’t play it because I can’t even log in to the ea app @EAHelp hello??”

The Sims 4 website, powered by EA says: “With today’s addition of Infants - a brand new life stage - we hope you’ll agree that we’ve lived up to our objective and that you’ll find Infants to be the best little Sims you’ve ever experienced in a Sims’ game.

After you finish downloading today’s update and you rush to launch the game, you may be wondering what the fastest way is to start discovering the joy that Infants bring to your Sims household.

“Of course, there are tried and true options like adoption, or finding your favourite WooHoo spot and letting nature take its course. You could even try a new interaction available on your Sim’s phone to have a Science Baby, which lets you attempt a little platonic genetic mixing and see what the outcome may be.”

However, fans have been left disappointed as they report not being able to log in to the game. NationalWorld has contacted EA for comment.
