I've tried other controllers, changing profile, and checking if it happens in other games, but it only happens in Sims 4 and only since the last update. And it happens in game play and build mode.

Hi, I ended up just creating a new account on my Xbox and starting again and it now works.
January 2020
In matter of fact I’m now also having this same problem.Is there anyway to fix this or is it just my controller.
April 2020
Did this ever get resolved I've installed a d reinstalled my game I still have the drifting cursor
June 2020
Same problem i get vampires and magic and suddenly the cursor wants to move upward on it's own.
June 2020
Exactly as the topic says. It never used to do this before and suddenly everytime I tap upward it goes heading on its own. It's not the controller as this doesn't happen on any other games. The last difference bewteen last time when it worked fine and now is that I purchased vampires and magic. I have reinstalled it and nothing seems to have changed please help.

Still no response..ok well.
I have checked my controller and other then on the sims it doesn't do this. I just purchased 2 packs and would really like to be able to play the game without it moving and making me have to redo something over and over again.

Good Luck
