Have you heard of the upcoming simulation game, inZOI?

Every once in a while, a new type of video game hits the market, completely changing the realm of games within that genre. For the simulation section of gaming, many fans have always turned to games like The Sims and more.

Here is everything we know about inZOI, from what you'll be capable of as players to its system requirements and release date.

What is inZOI?

The new simulation game, inZOI, uses advanced AI technology, to give players the most realistic simulation possible. In fact, players can literally take photos of things they own, and then AI will add them to the game. This is called the 3D Printer mode.

So, yes, you can literally recreate your entire living quarters.

But recreating in-animate objects is not all you can do when playing inZOI. No, players will also be able to recreate themselves using nothing but their smartphones. The game is introducing Facial Capture, which captures facial movement from the camera on your phone, implementing it directly into the game.

The game takes simulations to a whole new level, giving players the most immersive experience possible. You can even play in different types of worlds, including a typical modern-day fantasy or a post-apocalyptic nightmare.

inZOI unique features include:

  • Facial Capture
  • 3D Printer mode
  • Modding
  • Advanced building tools
  • Realistic driving system

When does inZOI release?

inZOI's release date is March 28, 2025 for PC (Steam). This game was previously expected to be released in Q4 of 2024. The game will come to consoles "like PS5 and Xbox" at a later date.
