Developed and published by Krafton, *inZOI* is poised to shake up the life simulation genre with its hyperrealistic approach, offering a compelling alternative to *The Sims*. If you're eager to know when you can dive into this immersive world, here's all the latest information on *inZOI*'s release.
What Is inZOI’s Release Date?
*inZOI* is slated to enter early access on Steam on March 28, 2025.

Console enthusiasts, however, will need to exercise patience as there's no confirmed release window for PlayStation or Xbox yet. Keep an eye out for updates as the early access period progresses.
In anticipation of the early access launch, players had the opportunity to get a taste of *inZOI* through the character studio, available for download from August 21 to August 26. This allowed them to experiment with the game's robust character creator and craft their unique ZOI. Given the stunning graphics and the depth of customization options, it's exciting to see the creative possibilities players will explore.

However, *inZOI* sets itself apart by offering a more immersive experience. Players can venture beyond their apartments and engage with almost every NPC they encounter. The game features three distinct worlds for you to live in and customize: the Seoul-inspired Dowon, the Los Angeles-inspired Bliss Bay, and the Indonesian-inspired Cahaya. Each setting promises a unique environment for players to explore and make their own.
