In 2008, an animated series based on the MySims series was announced as part of a deal between Electronic Arts and the United Talent Agency to turn their games into motions pictures and television shows, alongside a film based on the The Sims series announced the year prior. However, while The Sims film has since received numerous updates on its development, the MySims series has not been acknowledged since, suggesting it was eventually cancelled.

"MySims 2" was the tentative title of a MySims game that never made it past pre-production, being cancelled after the team decided to move the series in a different direction (likely resulting in the development of MySims Agents and MySims SkyHeroes, as several pieces of concept art resemble locations from those games). The only fully explored concept was the many locations that would have been seen in the game. However, concept artists Tony Trujillo and Norman Felchle revealed that the game would have featured "aged up" character designs drawn to be more anatomically accurate, namely by having fingers, toes, noses, and more prominent joints and necks. Such designs were made for Goth Boy, DJ Candy, Alexa Lexington, Chef Watanabe, Yuki, Violet Nightshade, Skip Rogers, Roxie Road, and Iggy, suggesting they were all intended to appear.

According to artist Chris Neuman's portfolio website, an MMO based on the MySims series (tentatively referred to as "MySims Online MMO") was in development in 2009, with Neuman having served as the lead artist on the project. Based on the art shown and the description provided, it would have had character customization, an art style that provided a more "vinyl" look for the series cast, assets converted from the various Wii games, new and returning locations (such as Gino's Pizzeria from MySims Agents), and different minigames such as one taking place on a dance floor. Additionally, one of the art pieces shared featured several characters from throughout the MySims series (specifically Madame Zoe, DJ Candy, Chef Gino, Skip Rogers, Zack and Sapphire), suggesting that pre-existing characters were planned to appear here.

In 2010, development began on a MySims game for the Nintendo 3DS titled "MySims Friends", being made by Behaviour Interactive, the developers behind MySims Racing and MySims SkyHeroes. It would have featured extensive customization options (most notably the ability to customize the environment around you) and would have been an online-only game, requiring features such as StreetPass and Nintendo connectivity. It was cancelled after EA decided to move the The Sims franchise into a new direction, one that did not include the MySims series. Years later, art director Xavier Garcia would release pieces of concept art for the game.
