inZOI System Requirements Show the Price of Higher Quality Graphics

inZOI demands a powerful PC to run smoothly, as Krafton has detailed the game's system requirements and optimal settings. This article breaks down those requirements and shows you the visual differences between each hardware tier.

inZOI's System Requirements Revealed

Krafton, inZOI's developer, announced the game's system requirements and optimal settings on March 12, 2025, categorizing them into four tiers: Minimum, Medium, Recommended, and High. Each tier offers a different level of visual fidelity.

The minimum requirements are surprisingly high, demanding at least an NVIDIA RTX 2060 or AMD Radeon RX 5600 GPU, and an Intel i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 CPU. This is a significant jump from games like *The Sims 4*. Krafton explains this by highlighting inZOI's high-quality graphics and realistic city simulations.

Recommended settings bump the requirements to an NVIDIA RTX 3070 or AMD Radeon RX 6800 GPU, and an Intel i7 or AMD Ryzen 7 CPU. High settings demand the most powerful hardware: an NVIDIA RTX 4080 or AMD Radeon RX 7900 GPU, coupled with an Intel i7 14700K or AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU.

This high spec requirement isn't unexpected, given inZOI's use of Unreal Engine 5 and the impressive visuals shown in trailers. While a console release is planned for PS5 and Xbox, significant optimization will likely be needed.

Graphics Comparison Across System Specs

Krafton has released a video showcasing the graphical differences between each system spec tier. The video clearly highlights improvements in lighting, textures, and overall color fidelity at higher settings.

The high minimum specifications might limit inZOI's initial player base compared to titles like *The Sims 4*. However, Krafton assures players that they are committed to improving accessibility. They plan to implement automatic setting adjustments and continue optimizing the game to lower system requirements without compromising visual quality.

A livestream showcasing early access pricing, DLC, the development roadmap, and Q&A will be held on March 19, 2025, at 01:00 UTC on inZOI's official YouTube and Twitch channels.

inZOI launches into early access on Steam on March 28th, with releases planned for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. A full release date is yet to be announced. Visit our inZOI page for the latest updates.
