KRAFTON, Inc. (CEO CH Kim) revealed new details about its upcoming life simulation game, inZOI, during the inZOI Global Showcase on March 19, 2025.
Players from around the world joined the online event, which was staged in the “AR Library” setting drawn from the world of inZOI. At the showcase, inZOI Studio CEO and inZOI Producer and Director Hyungjun ‘Kjun’ Kim presented insights into the game’s development background and the team behind it. Kjun engaged with the participants and highlighted that “realism” is the main goal of inZOI’s development, as it strives to create a realistic experience across the game’s simulation, settings, and art.
The Early Access version of inZOI includes an abundance of story elements with over 250 customization options. The game will also provide several AI-powered creative tools, including 3D Printer, Video to Motion, and Text to Image.
In addition, inZOI offers a wide range of creative systems that enable players to create outfits and furniture, customize accessories, and access features such as Facial Capture, Motion Capture, Photo Studio, Edit City, and the Event System. inZOI will support a sales system and crowd management for an enhanced gameplay experience, with modding and new cities coming to the game in future updates.
During Early Access, inZOI will be available at a price of $39.99. Further, all updates and DLC for inZOI will be free with purchase of the game until full release. As inZOI’s development roadmap rolls out over time, upcoming content will bring freelance jobs, ghost play, a Southeast Asian-inspired cat island “Kucingku,” swimming pools and the ability to swim, a family tree, new professions, and more.
Kjun said, “I hope that players will be able to experience things that they can’t in real life, feel a sense of control over life itself, and have the opportunity to look at life from a slight distance.” He added, “It has been a rough ride and there may still be some shortcomings, but we are committed to paying close attention to feedback from our community as we continue to improve the game towards its full release as soon as possible.”
