The lead developers of the upcoming life simulation game, inZOI, recently fielded questions from eager fans, particularly about the inclusion of sexual intercourse in the game. The assistant director's response was notably vague, avoiding direct mention of "sex" and leaving players puzzled. The gist of the answer suggested that when male and female ZOIs retreat to bed together, it implies an intent to procreate, but the visual representation is left to the player's imagination.
Perhaps that’s exactly what’s happening, but not at the level everyone expected.
This leaves fans wondering if inZOI will handle sex scenes similarly to The Sims series, with censorship, or if it will introduce a new method altogether.
Another point of curiosity was the decision for ZOIs to shower in towels rather than using pixelated censorship. The developers explained that this choice aligns better with the game's cartoonish graphics, as pixelation can appear overly sexualized in a realistic style. Additionally, they mentioned a technical issue where pixelated censorship failed to appear in mirror reflections, further justifying their approach.
For those seeking clarity, the game's ratings provide some insight. inZOI has been rated ESRB - T (for teens) and is expected to receive a PEGI 12 rating, mirroring the ratings assigned to The Sims 4. These ratings suggest a level of content moderation that fans can anticipate.
