Similar to The Sims, the in-game Zois in InZoi can die if you don't take care of them or if they suffer an accident. It's now come to light that the game has 16 unique types of death, including dying from a need for recognition. During the recent InZoi showcase event, InZoi game director Hyungjun "Kjun" Kim confirmed that a significant element of the game is death, and the game will include numerous ways to bite the dust.
"In InZoi we have a lot of different types of death, because life comes with death. In InZoi you could go to the bathroom and if you slip you might die. Or if you eat some old food you might have to go to the bathroom and, again, die," he said, as reported by PC Gamer. "And when you fix broken-down electronics you might get electrocuted, so you need to be careful."
Another way to die in InZoi is getting hit by a car, "so you might want to be careful around cars," Kjun said. When InZoi launches, players can enable driveable cars from the menu as part of an experimental test, but otherwise, cars drive automatically.
Beyond all of these, InZoi will include a method of dying that Kjun said has never been in a game before, and that is "dying from the need for recognition."
"In the modern world you find a lot of people feel fulfilled from being recognized by others and this death reflects that," the director said.
As an example, Kjun said the game might present an opportunity to have a fight with someone that causes a rumor to spread--and the consequences could be deadly. "I could get a text message about it, or a friend of mine could tell me about the rumor and if the rumor is negative then my need for acknowledgement can go down. And if that drops too drastically then you might die from that," Kjun said.
Announced previously, InZoi also has a reputation system that allows for Zois who die with a bad reputation to come back as ghosts to haunt the living.
InZoi releases on Steam Early Access on March 28, priced at $40. The game will receive a range of free updates as part of a post-launch DLC roadmap.
