inZOI Opens Unreal Engine 5.6 Beta Branch

inZOI launches a beta branch test to upgrade to Unreal Engine 5.6, alongside early previews of character customization and shower censorship updates.

Players can now test the upcoming engine upgrade for inZOI through a newly opened beta branch on Steam, while the development team addresses community feedback regarding character creation and social systems.

Engine Beta Branch

The development team has opened a beta branch test to upgrade the game's engine from version 5.4 to 5.6. The test is hosted on Steam and requires no additional preparation, with existing save files remaining fully compatible. Mod usage is restricted during this testing period.

Character Creation and Customization

The team is reviewing player requests for expanded body types, height options, and improved proportions for children and teens. Future updates will also address expanded outfit saving and auto-switch toggles by category.

Shower Censorship Adjustments

In response to player feedback regarding shower and bath censorship, developers are reviewing a flow that utilizes robes before and after bathing, alongside adjusting bubble volumes and replacing the current gray underwear with more natural options.

Why this patch matters

The opening of the Unreal Engine 5.6 beta branch marks an important technical step for inZOI, paired with early commitments to adjust character creation and visual censorship based on player feedback.
