The Sims-like life simulation game InZOI is launching in early access this month.
Publisher Krafton and game developer InZOI Studios have shown off more details for their upcoming life simulation game InZOI, which launches in early access on 28 March, 2025. The game was showcased in a live ‘InZOI Online Showcase’ stream, revealing more gameplay footage from the game, along with pricing details and a 2025 content roadmap.

InZOI showcase reveals pricing and gameplay details
InZOI’s game director Hyungjun "Kjun" Kim kicked off the InZOI livestream, explaining that he started development on the game because of a general dearth of more Sims-like games with modern visuals, having been a fan of the genre himself for quite some time. The game was delayed last year due to what Kjun perceived to be high expectations of the game, and will now launch in early access to gather player feedback.
During the stream, Kjun briefly introduced the game’s basic premise: players step into the shoes of an intern at AR Company, where their job is to manage a world filled with virtually created beings called Zoi. This adds a metanarrative layer to the game, much like the Assassin’s Creed series’ Animus storylines.
Kjun also revealed the game’s pricing: during its early access launch, InZOI will sell for $40 – an arguably high price for a game that doesn’t seem to have much meat on its bones just yet. To make up for that, the developer will provide all future updates and DLCs for free, until InZOI gets a full launch. The same deal as most early access games, then.
In addition to this, Kjun revealed the game’s upcoming 2025 roadmap of content updates:
