Inzoi is a new lifestyle simulator in the vein of The Sims, coming from Krafton, the publisher behind PUBG and Dark and Darker. Footage of the game has been wowing people online with its high-quality visuals.
Many are calling it a Sims killer as it takes players out into huge worlds as we’d see in games like GTA VI. The trailers have been showing vast amounts of customisation and interaction making it feel like nothing we’ve seen before in the genre.
The Sims has long dominated the lifestyle sim genre and will see a sequel in the coming years
There’s a little bit of the uncanny valley to much of what we see of Inzoi. The character models and rendering are so clean and advanced it feels a bit weird. Gone are the days of cartoon-style avatars wandering around.
Until now The Sims has dominated the genre and built up a huge fanbase of millions. Inzoi is hoping to upend that and bring hyperrealism to players.

Sadly, we know very little about how the game plays or when it will be released, however, the developers have given us some highlights to expect.
There will be a bounty of things to do including karaoke, chess games, and cafe visits. Of course, there will be romance and relationships, too. Full cities can be explored on foot or via cars, you’ll even be able to edit the cities and terrain.
Thousands of customisation options will be available from clothing to nail art, and there’s an in-game studio to take beautiful screenshots.
It seems that Inzoi will also feature a reputation system that reflects the good and bad actions you perform. This leans into this being a cross between The Sims and GTA VI.

Hopefully, the details keep coming and we soon see a release date. We already know Inzoi is coming to PC, but console players will want to keep an eye on this too.
