Exciting News: inZOI Launches on PS5 Next Year for Console Gamers

Alright, so picture this: It’s like the inZOI folks just can’t keep things under wraps, huh? Literally days—yes, days—before gamescom 2025 kicks off, they’re spilling more beans. Just last week, they threw out the juicy deets on their first DLC pack for the game. And now, surprise-surprise, it’s heading to PlayStation 5. I mean, are they just feeling generous? Or maybe they can’t keep a secret. Who knows.

Anyway, flip the page to today, and here we are digesting the news from Krafton, alongside the game’s dev wizards. They’ve given us this tantalizing tidbit about a PS5 port. Now, okay, it’s not jaw-dropping, but hey, it’s a confirmation the thing exists!

Here’s the rub, though: no release date yet. Just a vague promise that we’ll see it gracing Sony’s console in the mysterious “first half of 2026.” They’re saying they’re going to replicate the same feel on PS5 and make it “optimized for console”—whatever that means here.

Oh, and those controls? That’s apparently a stumbling block. Imagine cramming all those complex controls into a dainty controller. But Krafton seems confident they’ll hack it. Performance is top of their worry list, so that’s… promising?

Check out that image up there! That’s our first sneak peek of it running on PS5. Pretty sweet, right? Image credit to inZOI Studio and Krafton!

Now, here’s an eyebrow-raiser: inZOI’s still in Steam Early Access. But, mum’s the word on whether the PS5 version will take a similar route. My money’s on them launching the full PC version alongside the PS5 release. Seems tidy, right?

Oh, if you’re catching up: they’re also dropping a version for Mac OS on August 20, right alongside that tantalizing Island Getaway DLC. Fancy, huh? For more crumbs on inZOI, peek at our updated cheats list (and yeah, how you can enable them too).

And yes, that’s the buzz for now. Keep those eyes peeled for more, unless they decide to shout more surprises at us before gamescom even gets rolling.
