InZOI developer Krafton has released a new hotfix update that makes several gameplay changes and bug fixes, including an adjustment to the aging speed of Zois. While life simulation fans are loving InZOI, the early access game still has a long way to go in terms of new content and gameplay updates. Thankfully, one of players’ most requested adjustments has already been made by Krafton.

As InZOI is still an early access title, plenty of new features, gameplay changes, and content have yet to be introduced. While Krafton initially aimed to update the game with new content approximately once every two months, director Hyungjun ‘Kjun’ Kim recently revealed some changes to InZOI‘s original roadmap. Due to the high volume of feedback received from the game’s community, Krafton is now aiming to focus more on bug fixes and gameplay adjustments in the game’s early stages. The director went on to explain that the team is aiming to release multiple hotfixes throughout April, with the first set of changes and fixes now live in-game.

On April 1, Krafton stayed true to its word and released the first InZOI hotfix update for the month, making a handful of gameplay adjustments and bug fixes. Some of the most notable changes in the update have made some highly requested adjustments to the aging system. According to the official patch notes, which can be found further down this article, Krafton has adjusted the lifespan rules so that only Zois in the senior age category can now pass away from natural causes. The studio has also updated the lifespan rules to allow players to spend more time with their created Zois, something that fans have been requesting since the game’s early access launch on March 28.

Unfortunately, these changes only affect Zois that were created after the newest hotfix update, so existing characters will still have shorter lifespans. The latest update also makes a couple of bug fixes, including one that was resulting in clothing remaining dirty or damaged after being washed and another that was causing the game to crash for some InZOI players. Krafton noted that it is still investigating the E01 and E04 errors that occur when players upload to Canvas, but further fixes and improvements are on the way.

With the recent adjustments to InZOI‘s roadmap, it’s unclear if Krafton is still targeting its previously mentioned dates for new content updates. While fans will have plenty of new hotfix updates over the next few weeks, the developer’s initial post-launch roadmap for InZOI stated that the first major content update will be released in May, featuring a mod kit, changes to weight and muscle adjustments, in-game cheat codes, relationship improvements, an adoption system, and much more. A free DLC is then planned to release in August, followed by even more content updates in the months after.

InZOI Patch Notes for April 1 Hotfix Update

• Hotfix Details
  • Patch Date: April 1, 2025 at 13:30 (UTC)
  • Game Version: 20250401.1483.W
• Fixes:
  • Adjusted lifespan rules so that only Zois in senior age groups may now pass away naturally.
    • Previously, Zois could die of natural causes at relatively early ages based on realistic probabilities. However, we also believe it’s just as important for Creators to have time to bond with their characters and fully immerse themselves in their stories.
    • With that in mind, we’ve updated the lifespan rules so you can spend more time with your Zois.
    • Please note that this change only applies to newly created Zois via New Game. It does not affect existing save files or Zois already in progress.
  • Fixed an issue where clothing remained dirty or damaged after washing under certain conditions.
  • Resolved a crash issue that could occur intermittently in certain situations. We are currently investigating the E01 and E04 errors occurring when uploading to Canvas, as well as other issues that have been reported by our Creators. Further updates will be shared as we learn more.
