InZOI to Launch at $40 with Ambitious Post-Launch Content Roadmap

Krafton has officially confirmed that InZOI will launch at $39.99, a price point significantly lower than many modern big-budget titles. This announcement came during an early access showcase, where the publisher also unveiled a comprehensive post-launch content plan aimed at expanding the game over time.

A Realistic Life Sim with Big Plans

Developed by South Korea-based inZOI Studio, InZOI has generated buzz for its lifelike graphics and deep simulation mechanics, positioning itself as a serious competitor to The Sims. Full production has been ongoing since early 2023, with an official early access launch set for March 28, 2025.

Krafton also committed to a series of free DLC updates throughout the early access phase, ensuring continuous improvements and fresh content for players.

First Free DLC: Kucingku Cat Island 🐱

The first major free DLC, Kucingku Cat Island, is scheduled for August 2025, likely coinciding with International Cat Day on August 8. This update will introduce a brand-new city, Kucingku, inspired by Southeast Asian culture. The name itself, “Kucingku,” translates to "my cat" in Indonesian and Malay, hinting at a feline-friendly environment.

"Players Over Profit" – Krafton’s Pricing Strategy

Krafton emphasized a "players over profit" approach by pricing InZOI at $39.99, a move aimed at making the game more accessible. While this price applies to early access, it's unclear if it will change upon full release.

Currently, InZOI will be a PC-exclusive title during early access, but plans are in place for a future release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. With a strong roadmap, ongoing updates, and competitive pricing, InZOI is shaping up to be a major player in the life simulation genre.
