Jared Kushner‘s latest business deal has got fans of The Sims fuming and declaring they ‘can’t have anything nice.’

On Monday, it was revealed that Donald Trump‘s son-in-law’s company is among those closing a deal to acquire Electronic Arts, better known as EA.

EA confirmed that it will be privately acquired by several investors, including Kushner’s Affinity Partners, during the 2027 fiscal year.

Saudia Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, also known as PIF, is also investing, as well as the private equity company Silver Lake.

In a statement, EA said that the all-cash transaction is valued at approximately $55 billion and will help fuel ‘innovation and growth to build the future of entertainment.’

Addressing the move, Kushner, 44, who is married to President Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump, said he ‘couldn’t be more excited.’

‘Electronic Arts ​is ​an ​extraordinary ​company with a ​world-class ​management ​team and a bold vision ​for ​the ​future,’ he said.

‘​I’ve admired their ​ability to create iconic, lasting experiences, ​and ​as ​someone ​who ​grew up playing their ​games ​- and now enjoys them with his ​kids – I couldn’t be ​more ​excited about ​what’s ​ahead.’

One of EA’s most popular games is The Sims, which was released in February 2000 

The move hasn’t exactly gone down well with fans of The Sims.

Taking their complaints to social media, one fumed: ‘Well, ain’t making any EA purchases ever again.’

Referring to the game, another wrote: ‘The total opposite situation of “woohoo.”‘

A third continued: ‘We can’t have anything nice, can we?’

‘Jared Kushner getting a grubby little hands on The Sims… we are in hell,’ slammed a fourth.

Another raged: ‘What the f**k do you mean that The Sims franchise is now owned by Jared Kushner?’

The Sims celebrated its 25th anniversary in February.

The long-running game, which allows players to create a neighborhood of virtual characters, was first released for Microsoft Windows on February 4, 2000.

Back then, the novel concept proved wildly popular and was followed by a sequel, The Sims 2, on September 14, 2004.

Over the next 20 years, The Sims grew into a massive franchise with four main games, countless expansions, and a connected series of popular city-building games called SimCity.

To celebrate the game’s 25th anniversary, EA unveiled two new versions of the classic games, dubbed The Sims: Legacy Collection and The Sims 2: Legacy Collection.

EA was founded in 1982 and also develops and publishes Battlefield, Dragon Age, and FIFA.
