The lead developers of the highly anticipated life simulation game, inZOI, recently engaged with fans, tackling some intriguing questions about the game's content. One of the most talked-about topics was the inclusion of sexual intercourse in the game. The assistant director's response was notably vague, avoiding direct mention of "sex." Instead, the explanation hinted at the possibility of such interactions occurring between male and female ZOIs, particularly when they retreat to bed together, with the intention of creating children. However, the visual representation of these interactions was left up to the player's imagination, leaving fans puzzled about the specifics.

Perhaps that’s exactly what’s happening, but not at the level everyone expected.

This ambiguity has led to speculation about whether inZOI will follow the censorship approach seen in The Sims series or if it will introduce a novel method of handling these sensitive scenes.

Another point of interest was the game's approach to nudity and censorship during shower scenes. The developers explained that ZOIs shower in towels rather than using pixelated censorship, which is deemed more suitable for games with cartoonish graphics. In a game striving for a more realistic style like inZOI, pixelation can appear overly sexualized. Additionally, a technical issue was cited where pixelated censorship failed to appear in mirror reflections when a naked ZOI was present, further justifying the towel approach.

For those seeking clarity on the game's content, the ratings assigned by regulatory bodies provide some insight. inZOI has been rated ESRB - T (for teens) and is expected to receive a PEGI 12 rating. These ratings align with those given to The Sims 4, suggesting a similar level of content appropriateness and censorship.

By addressing these questions, the developers of inZOI have sparked further interest and discussion among fans, eagerly awaiting the game's release to see how these elements are ultimately implemented.
