inZOI Set to Launch on PS5 Next Year for Players Without PC Access

Alright, so here’s the thing. I stumbled upon some kind of buzz, and it’s about inZOI. Yeah, I know, kind of a weird name, right? Anyway — wait, no — it’s not like this story has a clear opening. This game dev, they’re really going for it. Like, no chill. Just before gamescom 2025 — BOOM — another announcement drops. Not even a week ago, they were all about this new DLC pack.

So, Krafton and whoever’s behind this life sim (was never much into life sims, but that’s just me), they’re, like, “Hey, PlayStation 5, here we come!” Strange timing? Maybe. Or perhaps they’re itching for attention. Maybe something big is still under wraps. Who knows. Anyway, yeah, the announcement is just like, “Hey, this exists.”

No release date yet, but 2026-ish, they say. Sounds simple: PS5 gets the same vibe as other platforms, just “console optimised” — whatever that means. Controls might be funky since, duh, controllers aren’t keyboards. They’re tweaking things for that. Performance is key apparently. Makes you wonder how messy it was before.

Oh, here’s a pic — looks kinda cool, I guess?

So, they’ve got this technical stuff down. Early Access on PC, sure, but will all this PS5 jazz be the same? Typically, PlayStation doesn’t do the early version dance, so maybe the stars align for a big release? Or not.

By the way, Mac users are in luck, too. August 20, that’s when Mac OS gets a taste and brings along Island Getaway DLC. More complexity? More distraction? I don’t know about you, but I’m just a fan of simpler times. Cheats and hacks make the cut, of course. You can lose yourself checking it all out.

And, uh, that’s all I’ve got swirling around in my head right now.
