With Microsoft’s push for cross play between consoles and PC, it should come as no surprise that The Sims 4 is heading to Xbox One. According the official Microsoft store, The Sims 4 will be released for Xbox One on November 17, 2017.
At the time of this writing, there’s no pricing or pre-order available, but there is an official description that reads:

The Sims 4 wasn’t welcomed with the most warming reception when it released for PC back in 2014, but since then the game has improved vastly through the release of DLC and Expansions.
There’s no word on if a PlayStation 4 version of The Sims 4 is on the way. It should be noted Microsoft and EA seem to have a close relationship with the whole EA Access thing.
A Deluxe Party Edition that offers early access on November 14th of Xbox One was also spotted.
