inZOI NPCs Have Their Own Free Will

A "Complete Community Simulation"

Krafton, the developer behind inZOI, is set to revolutionize the life simulation genre by integrating NVIDIA's Ace AI technology into the game's NPCs. This cutting-edge AI will enable the creation of advanced AI citizens who not only react to their surroundings but also evolve their behaviors based on personal experiences.

In a captivating trailer featured on NVIDIA GeForce's official YouTube channel, titled "NVIDIA ACE | inZOI - Create Simulated Cities with Co-Playable Characters," we get a glimpse of how these NPCs, known as Smart Zoi, will function autonomously. When activated, Smart Zois bring the city to life with their individual decisions, schedules, and plans, such as heading to work or socializing with friends. Their interactions continue even when not directly engaged by the player, influencing each other dynamically.

For instance, a Smart Zoi with a considerate nature might assist others by buying them food or providing directions. Meanwhile, an appreciative Smart Zoi could become a dedicated supporter of a street performer, gradually attracting a crowd. Players can delve deeper into the AI Zoi's psyche using the Thought system, uncovering the reasons behind their actions. At the end of each day, these Smart Zois reflect on their activities, which in turn shapes their future behavior.

"A collection of these unique Smart Zois guarantees a city that is vibrant and diverse, fostering unpredictable social interactions that create a rich and dynamic story-driven simulation," the video concludes.

inZOI is slated for an Early Access release on March 28th, 2025, on PC via Steam. Stay tuned for more updates and in-depth information about the game by exploring our related articles!
