Line 11:
*As in ''[[The Sims]]'' ghosts cannot be killed, as they are already dead.
*In ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', [[zombie]]s are unable to age past the Adult life stage, and therefore possess the potential to "live" forever.
*In ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]'',
*In ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business]]'', [[Servo]]s do not age, and can only be killed by a falling [[satellite]], being eaten by the [[Cowplant]], or by [[Running with Scissors Playset|running with scissors]].
;The Sims 3
*Much like in the previous two Sims games, ghosts are still essentially immortal, although they can be permanently removed from the game if their tombstone is deleted or they are made playable and choose to Return to the Netherworld.
*In ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'', while still possessing greatly augmented lifespans, vampires are no longer immortal and can die of old age, although if ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural]]'' is installed they can acquire the Immortal
*In ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future]]'', [[Plumbots]], much like Servos, cannot die of old age and can only be killed by a falling meteor, although some store items such as the [[Cowplant]] or the [[Door of Life And Death]] are capable of killing Plumbots.
*Though a trait and not a life state, [[Sims]] with the [[Unlucky]] trait cannot die of anything other than old age (the Grim Reaper will immediately resurrect them due to their death being too amusing and predictable), but if they drink the Age Freeze potion or have the Immortal [[Lifetime reward]], they become ageless and lose the ability to die from old age. This effectively renders them immortal, as the people who are instantly revived in the case of an accidental death lose the ability to die naturally.
;The Sims 4
*Ghosts remain immortal, but can be killed if they are revived first.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Vampires]]'', much like in ''The Sims 2: Nightlife'', vampires stop aging once they become a young adult.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Realm of Magic]]'', although [[Spellcaster|spellcasters]] aren't immortal, they can brew a potion of immortality; which only spellcasters can create.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]'', Servos do not age, and can only be killed by catastrophic meltdown, or being eaten by the [[Cowplant]].
*While not technically life states, [[Baby Ariel]], [[Grim Reaper]], and [[Santa Claus]] all have traits that render them immune to death in every form.
==Methods of becoming immortal==
Line 36 ⟶ 40:
*If ''[[The Sims 3: Generations|Generations]]'' is installed, Sims with a sufficiently high [[Logic]] skill are capable of creating a Young Again potion, which will restore a Sim to the beginning of their Young Adult life stage. The potion can also be purchased as a lifetime reward.
*The above expansion pack also includes an Age Freeze potion as a lifetime reward. Drinking the potion will render the Sim ageless, however if the Sim dies accidentally and is revived the effects of the potion will disappear and the Sim will age normally.
*If ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural|Supernatural]]''
*The [[Door of Life And Death]] can be used by any Sim to revive deceased Sims continuously, although this method will reincarnate the Sim with a randomized appearance and gender, and sever the Sim's previous relationships as well as a portion of their skills. This method also requires that the reincarnated Sim be raised from babyhood back to adulthood, so it may seem undesirable to some players.
*If purchased from the Store, the Cowplant can be used like the previous games to prolong a Sim's life. However, the Cowplant's elixir has the same effect as Ambrosia, and will reset a Sim to the beginning of their current life and adding the Divine Meal moodlet.
;The Sims 4
*Ambrosia functions much like in the previous game but requires more skills to prepare, and can be used to prolong a Sim's life indefinitely.
*A [[Potion#The Sims 4|Potion of Youth]] can be purchased as an
*The Cowplant returns in this game, and unlike in the previous games, can be grown from a seed. Its elixir, gained from eating Sims, can be used to extend a Sim's lifespan.
*The [[Book of Life]] can be used by a Sim to revive another Sim they are acquainted with, providing a potential means of immortality as long as there is a Sim to revive the one who dies.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Get to Work]]'', Sims in the [[Science (career)|science]] career can create an [[Potion#The Sims 4: Get to Work|Age-Away]] serum after a [[scientific breakthrough]] that can be used like the Potion of Youth.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Seasons]]'', at level 10 [[flower arranging]] it is possible to scent an excellent quality arrangement with orchids. A Sim may then inhale its life essence, increasing their lifespan by one every 24 hours. It is thus possible to stay immortal with a reliable supply of orchids.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: StrangerVille]]'', once a Sim has progressed far enough in the StrangerVille story line, they will reach the deepest part of the Secret Lab and encounter the [[Mother Plant]]. Attempting to communicate and build a relationship with it will eventually allow the Sim to request a gift once a day, one of these being life extension, which will reset the Sim to the beginning of their life stage. This can be used to prolong a Sim's life indefinitely.
*With ''[[The Sims 4: Vampires]]'', sims can turn into a vampire, whom are all immortal.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Realm of Magic]]'', if the sim is a [[spellcaster]], a potion of immortality can be brewed, then have the sim drink it to prevent dying of old age.
==Trivia==
*Some service NPCs, such as [[firefighter (NPC)|firefighters]], cannot be killed unless added to the household through console commands.
*The Grim Reaper is believed to be immortal, although it is difficult to tell as a new Grim Reaper could be generated by the game if the first one dies. In Sims 4 the Grim Reaper possesses the trait trait_isGrimReaper that renders the sim immune to death.
*Despite being undead, [[Bonehilda]] is not immortal and can be killed.
