inZOI soars past 1 million sales, becomes krafton’s new hit

Krafton's life simulation game inZOI has achieved remarkable success, selling 1 million copies within its first week of Early Access on PC via Steam. This is the fastest sales milestone ever for a Krafton title. The game has generated buzz not just for its concept but also due to a controversial glitch that allowed players to harm children, which has since been patched. Despite its rocky start, inZOI boasts a 'very positive' rating on Steam and peaked with 175,000 concurrent viewers on Twitch. It quickly climbed to the top of Steam's Global Top Sellers List shortly after its release. Krafton plans to support the game with future updates, including mods and new cities, providing free updates and downloadable content until a full release. The developer highlighted the importance of community engagement as crucial for the game's success.

Krafton intends to introduce new content such as mod support and additional cities, with all updates and DLC offered for free until the game’s full release. They are also keen on implementing quick fixes for any issues reported by players.

inZOI, a competitor to titles like The Sims, allows players to immerse themselves in a life simulation experience. The game emphasizes user-generated content through its Canvas platform, which saw over 470,000 creations uploaded on launch day. With its ambitious design and unique gameplay elements, inZOI has the potential to evolve into a long-term franchise for Krafton, drawing interest from fans of life simulation genres.
