EA Games Closes Maxis Studios

Recommended Posts

 

EA has shut down Maxis Emeryville, the main Maxis studio and longrunning developer behind SimCity and Spore, among other games. Though the Maxis brand will carry on, the studio that most people knew as "Maxis" is no more.

 

"Today we are consolidating Maxis IP development to our studios in Redwood Shores, Salt Lake City, Helsinki and Melbourne locations as we close our Emeryville location," an EA representative said in a statement.

That's really sad, Maxis made lots of classics. It will surely be missed.

SimFarm, SimAnt, Sim Earth, SimCity, SC2K, SC3K, The Sims, ...

I still remember the trailer that came with the Sim City 3000 CD, a game which was never released, SimMars: 

 

SimsVille was also a cancelled project that I was expecting a lot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimsVille
