InZOi released on 27 March, entering the life sim category as the new kid on the block. Players have since found much enjoyment in unique aspects that the game offers, such as Zoi customization, the 3D printer mechanics, and the possibility of upcoming features and new ideas. Following release, InZoi has now released a hotfix patch on April 29, 2025, which both introduces new gameplay features and fixes notable bugs.
Gameplay Updates & New Features
Character Customization Updates
- 3 new short-length hairstyle options added
- 2 new basic tops / 1 new basic bottom / 3 types of socks by length / 9 new types of stockings added
- 4 new hats / 1 new pair of glasses / 5 new hair accessories added
- 2 new eyelash styles added
Build Elements Updates
- 25 new textures added to decorate walls, floors, roofs, and ceilings
- 4 types of short-length stairs added for more flexible building options
- 13 new doors and 16 new windows in various sizes and styles added
New Update Banner Added to the Lobby
- A new banner has been added to help you easily view the newly added furniture, hairstyles, and more at a glance.
Slower Rate of Lot Pollution
- We have significantly slowed the rate at which lots become dirty. Although cleanliness is designed as an element Creators can manage themselves, the previous setting caused pollution to occur too frequently, disrupting the natural flow of gameplay.
- With this patch, the pollution speed has been greatly eased, and we are also considering adding an option to disable lot cleanliness changes entirely in a future update.
Improved Sudden Emotional Stability for Zois
- Based on reports from Creators, we have addressed the issue where Zois’ emotions would change too rapidly and unnaturally.
- Now, the primary emotion will only change if the emotional score reaches 2 points or higher. Otherwise, the Zois’ base emotion will remain stable.
- As this adjustment might slow emotional changes slightly in some situations, we plan to introduce further improvements to ensure even more natural emotional transitions.
Street Food Hunger Changes
- Adjusted hunger restoration from street food to prevent Zois from getting hungry too frequently.
Bug Fixes
Gameplay
- Fixed an issue where male Zois could not eat street food while seated.
- Fixed an issue where the Tteokbokki-related urge could not be completed.
Character
- Fixed an issue where Zois’ facial appearance set in ‘Create a Zoi’ appeared differently in-game.
Build Mode
- Fixed an issue where the original creator was not retained when applying a lot preset of a different size than the current property.
- Fixed an issue where the default color and material would only apply to part of the stairs after rotating stairs and applying a stair wall.
Crash Fixes
- Fixed an issue where graphical glitches and intermittent freezes could occur during SceneDepthZ processing while playing.
Other Issues
- Fixed an issue where changes made in Game Options were automatically applied without clicking “Apply” in the confirmation popup.
- Fixed an issue where save files could not be loaded if the file path contained certain special characters.
- Finally, we’ve improved localization quality for several languages to ensure a more natural experience.
- You can check the localization status for each language under [Options > Gameplay > Game Language].
