GTA 6 meets The Sims in stunningly realistic new game coming this March

If inZOI isn’t on your release radar, it certainly should be.

The upcoming life sim is essentially what you’d end up with if you combined the gameplay loop of The Sims with the graphical fidelity of a title like GTA VI.

The best part is that we’re finally nearing the game’s launch.

It was back in November of 2023 that inZOI first came to light, having begun development earlier that year.

On 28 March though, we’ll all finally be able to experience this exciting new Sims competitor for ourselves when it launches in early access on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.

ICYMI: Take a look at inZOI in action below.

“inZOI is a life simulation game where the player can alter any aspect of their world to create unique stories and experiences,” the synopsis teases.

“Just like in the real world, you can find jobs to make a living while forming deep relationships through interactions. With a complete community simulation of every character acting on their free will, you can experience unexpected events to feel the various emotions life has to offer.”

As you can likely gather, you’ll partake in all of the usual fare you find in a life sim title: decorating your homestead, navigating new social scenes, and climbing the career ladder.

inZOI has been created in Unreal Engine 5 so it looks positively fantastic with developers promising a sandbox world where players will be able to “let their imagination run free”.

You’re not simply limited to customising your home either.

“You can also adjust different parts of your property and surrounding roads as well as aspects of your residing city for a fully customisable experience,” the game also teases.

That launch date, 28 March, refers to inZOI’s early access period as it’ll be a short while before a full launch follows.

Still, this doesn’t make an enormous difference. You should simply expect that developers may still have a few creases that they need to iron out.

Set your countdown clocks. As much as it alarms me to say it, March will be here before we know it.
