KRAFTON has confirmed that InZOI’s early access has been delayed from ‘2024’ to specifically, 28 March 2025. The season given for this delay is that it is to provide “extra love and care”, and to give the game a “stronger foundation” before being available to the masses.
A full statement shared by Kjun can be found below:
To inZOI fans around the world,
First, I want to express my sincerest gratitude to all of our fans. Your immense love and unwavering support mean everything to us. I was especially touched by the wonderful reception we received at gamescom. Seeing everyone create such unique Zois during our ‘inZOI: Character Studio’ demo period was truly inspiring.
Initially, we were uncertain about introducing ‘Canvas’ to the world, not knowing how many people would actually participate. However, the turnout was amazing, with an incredible amount of uploads. Seeing such engagement brought us so much happiness, and it was inspiring to see how deeply people connected with inZOI. Your response and feedback made us realize the responsibility we have to provide players with the most complete experience possible.
This message is about that realization. After reviewing your feedback from inZOI: Character Studio and analyzing a wealth of data from our various play tests, we have made our decision to release inZOI in Early Access on March 28, 2025. We apologize that we could not bring you the game sooner, but this decision reflects our commitment to giving inZOI the best possible start.
It is said that among primates, raising a human child to adulthood takes the longest time because humans must be prepared to endure and adapt to their ever-changing surroundings. The extra love and care that is required to properly nurture a child is how I see our journey with inZOI—a game that we will be nurturing together from its Early Access birth. This change in our release date represents our dedication to giving inZOI a stronger foundation, so we can embark on this journey together in the best way possible.
Until the release date, we’ll continue to improve areas that need attention, striving to create a game that truly captures the essence of life simulation. Our goal is to deliver an experience fans can enjoy for years to come. We’ll keep you updated on our development progress, and we hope you’ll continue to join us on this journey towards inZOI’s Early Access and beyond. Thank you.
With love,
Kjun
