The developers of the upcoming life simulation game, inZOI, recently addressed fan questions, sparking curiosity about the game's depiction of intimate relationships. When questioned about the inclusion of sexual intercourse, the assistant director offered an ambiguous response, leaving players uncertain about the game's mechanics.
Essentially, the implication is that romantic interactions between ZOI characters can lead to the conception of children. However, the visual representation of this process remains unclear, leaving much to the player's interpretation. The developers hinted that the level of detail might not meet all expectations.
Currently, the exact nature of intimacy in inZOI remains a mystery. It's unclear whether the game will employ censorship similar to The Sims series or adopt a novel approach.
The developers also explained the decision to depict ZOI characters showering in towels instead of using pixelated censorship. They stated this approach is more suitable for the game's cartoonish art style, as pixelation in a realistic style can appear overly sexualized. Furthermore, a technical bug related to pixelated censorship in reflections also contributed to this design choice.
Ultimately, the game's rating provides further insight. inZOI has received an ESRB rating of T (Teen) and is expected to receive a PEGI 12 rating—the same ratings as The Sims 4.
