Krafton’s The Sims competitor InZoi has delayed its first major update to focus on adding improved emotions to the game. The first major update for the life simulator roadmap has been delayed alongside the planned release of the game’s mod tools as the team aims to “prioritise quality over speed”.
In a statement on the game’s Steam page, game director Hyungjun “Kjun” Kim explained that the team needs slightly longer to deliver the first major update at the level of quality fans deserve. Now, fans will have to wait until mid-June to get access to the new update.
InZoi update and mod tools delayed
Kim explained that the team is working to “improve how Zois express emotions and show personality in the June update”. Right now, the team noticed that upgrades for the game’s Zoi emotions are currently not working.
“During our work on emotional stability in the April update, we discovered some unexpected side effects,” Kim explained. “Currently, some Zois freeze or fail to reflect emotions through facial expressions or behaviors — this will be addressed in June. We also heard feedback that Zois sometimes lack distinctiveness in their behavior. We’re adding emotion-based conversations and reactions, so that even the same actions vary depending on emotional state.”
“The update that was originally planned for the end of May, including the modding system, has been postponed to mid-June, Kim explained on the game’s Steam page. “We felt there were still areas that needed improvement, and we wanted to prioritize quality over speed. Although the schedule has shifted, we are working to deliver content that’s truly satisfying.”
Alongside the delayed update, the team gave an update on the game’s ModKit that will allow players to create more advanced mods.
“The ModKit is a tool designed to help you create mods. Its purpose is to make it easier to create mod content and allow for more flexible sharing,” the developer explained. “While inZOI includes a built-in CurseForge integration, we’ve broadened support so that creators can share mods in two ways.”
Players will be able to upload a mod to CurseForge and install it through the in-game Mod Browser or save a mod locally and add it to the mods folder in the game’s installation folder. When the ModKit is released, players will be able to completely change the game as they want.
