inZOI, the upcoming game from Krafton, has set the bar high with its system requirements, unveiled on March 12, 2025. These specifications are designed to ensure players enjoy the best possible experience, reflecting the game's use of Unreal Engine 5 for high-quality graphics and realistic city-level simulations.
RTX 2060 as Its Minimum Graphics Requirement
Krafton has categorized the system requirements into four tiers: Minimum, Medium, Recommended, and High. At the minimum level, players need an NVIDIA RTX 2060 or AMD Radeon RX 5600 for graphics, paired with an Intel i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 CPU. This is a significant jump from the system requirements of EA's Sims 4, which only requires an NVIDIA GeForce 6600 or higher. Krafton justifies this by stating, "inZOI delivers high-quality graphics and realistic city-level simulations, which require higher system specifications to run smoothly."
For those aiming for recommended settings, an NVIDIA RTX 3070 or AMD Radeon RX 6800, along with an Intel i7 or AMD Ryzen 7 CPU, is necessary. The highest settings demand an NVIDIA RTX 4080 or AMD Radeon RX 7900 graphics card and an Intel i7 14700K or AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU.
Given the game's demanding specs, it's clear that inZOI is pushing the boundaries of what's possible with Unreal Engine 5. Although there are plans to bring the game to PS5 and Xbox, it may require further optimization to run smoothly on these consoles.
Graphics Comparison by System Specs
A video comparison provided by Krafton showcases the differences in graphics across the various system specs. The highest tier offers superior visuals in terms of lighting, textures, and color, enhancing the overall gaming experience.
Despite the high entry point for system requirements, Krafton is committed to making inZOI accessible to a broader audience. They plan to introduce a feature that automatically adjusts game settings for optimal performance and are working on optimizations to lower system requirements without sacrificing quality.
inZOI will be showcased in a live stream on March 19, 2025, at 01:00 UTC on the game's official YouTube and Twitch channels. This event will cover early access pricing, DLC details, the developmental roadmap, and answer fan questions.
The game will enter early access on Steam on March 28, and will also be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. While a full release date remains undisclosed, you can stay updated on all the latest news about inZOI on our dedicated page.
