Hello, Creators.
Kjun here.
Before diving in, I’d like to express my heartfelt apologies to all Creators who were eagerly anticipating the May update. Moving forward, we are committed to sharing updates more promptly. The inZOI update is slated for release on Friday, June 13, and we aim to make it worth the wait.
This release will feature the previously announced ModKit, essential roadmap features showcased earlier, a variety of new content, system enhancements, and bug fixes. Here’s a glimpse of what’s on the horizon.
◆ More Family Creation Options
◽️ Zois can now have children regardless of marital status. Adoption was initially intended to have various prerequisites, but to offer more freedom, we’ve simplified the system. Additionally, you can select a Zoi with specific traits and use their genetic information through medical procedures to have a child. We hope these options allow you to create families your way.
◆ Teenage Romance
◽️ Teenage Zois can now engage in romantic interactions. I do wish, looking back, that we had made Teenager and Adult Zois visually more distinct.
◆ Universal Romantic Relationships
◽️ A feature under development during early access, Zois can now form romantic relationships with any Zoi in the city. To activate this feature, navigate to the Create a Zoi screen and click the Change Gender Identity button to adjust settings.
◆ Initiating Text Conversations
◽️ Player Zois can now begin conversations via text. While custom messages aren’t possible yet, your Zoi can text other Zois to make plans as relationships grow. We aim to develop the capability for custom messages in the future.
◆ UI Size Adjustments
◽️ In response to feedback on UI visibility, we’ve included a setting with three options to adjust UI element and text size.
◆ Cheats
◽️ Cheats are now available in-game. While the current selection is limited, we plan to expand this in future updates.
◆ Lifestyle-Influenced Body Changes
◽️ Zois’ physiques will now change based on lifestyle choices, providing a realistic and dynamic experience. Overeating will lead to weight gain, while exercise will build muscle.
◆ Item Exchange System
◽️ Zois can now exchange items, enhancing interaction. You’ll be able to gift, give, or sell items from your Zoi’s inventory.
◆ Over 20 New Character Studio Assets
◽️ Added new character customization items, including highly requested hair-related assets, outfits, and accessories.
◆ Over 100 New Furniture Items
◽️ Introduced more than 100 furniture items for kitchens, bedrooms, and baby rooms.
Apart from these updates, we’re making wide-ranging improvements to sound settings, Canvas, animations, simulation, and other aspects of the game.
Our team is dedicated to listening to your feedback and enhancing your gaming experience. We hope the upcoming June 13 update will make your time with inZOI even more enjoyable.
Thank you for your ongoing interest and support.
Sincerely,
– Kjun
