This release of inZOI: Character Studio aims to offer global fans awaiting the early access launch of inZOI a chance to experience the distinctive character customization features found in the game.
 
inZOI: Character Studio
 
Through inZOI: Character Studio, players can create their dream avatar, called a ‘Zoi,’ with an incredible degree of customization. With over 250 customization options, including the ability to adjust the length and style of hair, sleeves on a shirt, age, fingernails, height, body type, complexion and more, players are limited only by their imagination. Additionally, players can get a taste of the next generation of life simulation using the innovative generative AI feature AI Texture to create unlimited possibilities for patterns for their Zoi’s clothing, giving players the ability to create something truly unique.
 
Players are encouraged to share their creations on ‘Canvas,’ a built-in UGC (User-Generated Content) platform where the community can easily upload their creations, download those of others, and interact with each other’s works via likes and comments. The top 10 creations with the best responses will be displayed at the top of the Canvas ranking. Characters and creations made in inZOI: Character Studio can be used again in inZOI after its early access launch.
 
Various community events are also planned for users of inZOI: Character Studio. Through the 'Canvas Top 10 Event,' the top 10 users with the most popular creations on Canvas will receive AR Company welcome kit goods. Additionally, KRAFTON invites the community to showcase their creations by uploading their unique Zoi to social media platforms with hashtags through the ‘Create A Zoi’ hashtag event. Participants will be selected to receive special inZOI merchandise such as T-shirts and string bags.
 
 "inZOI focuses on providing a creative space where users can freely express their imagination.” Hyungjun Kim, Producer and Director of inZOI, said. “We expect a vibrant community where users worldwide share and communicate their creations through the UGC platform 'Canvas.' We hope users will fully unleash their creativity and enjoy unique experiences in inZOI through inZOI: Character Studio."
 
Setting the Stage for Mod Support with Overwolf
 
KRAFTON has also announced a partnership with Overwolf, the all-in-one platform that enables creators to build, distribute, and monetize in-game apps, mods, and private game servers to build a safe and curated space for inZOI mods on CurseForge. This partnership will empower the inZOI community to build on the base game and further customize and share their experiences from launch. 
 
“We are thrilled to partner with KRAFTON to help them fulfill their vision of fostering a vibrant community of creators from day one of inZOI’s game launch. By providing a dedicated platform for inZOI mods through CurseForge, KRAFTON is ensuring that the community has the best tools and resources to bring their creative visions to life, and we can’t wait to see how the gaming experience is enhanced through endless player-created content,” shared Overwolf CEO, Uri Marchand.
