The Sims' Biggest Competitor, inZOI, Reveals PC Specs That Might Already Change Your Mind On Playing

"inZOI" PC configuration requirements are announced, and some players may be dismissed from

The PC configuration requirements for the highly anticipated Sims game "inZOI" have been officially announced recently. However, surprisingly, its configuration requirements are extremely high and may discourage many players. The game developed by inZOI Studio and released by Krafton, Inc. will be officially launched on March 27.

The developer has announced the complete hardware requirements for different settings (minimum, medium, recommended and high). The official X account (formerly Twitter) post lists the system, processor, memory, graphics card and storage space required to run "inZOI". Compared with "The Sims 4", "inZOI" has much higher requirements on hardware, after all, "The Sims 4" was a game released ten years ago (2014).

Minimum configuration requires RTX level graphics card

Compared with The Sims 4, inZOI has significantly higher requirements for hardware. The difference is particularly significant when comparing processor, memory and graphics card requirements. The Sims 4 minimum configuration requirements are 3.3 GHz Intel Core i3-3220 (2 cores and 4 threads) or AMD Ryzen 1200.1 GHz (4 cores) processors, while inZOI requires Intel i5 10400 or AMD Ryzen 5600 processors at the same level.

The following table compares the relevant parameters of the two games based on the "Sims 4" page on Steam and the "inZOI" post on X platform:

Comparison of the minimum configuration of "inZOI" with the minimum configuration of "The Sims 4" (basic game)
project	"inZOI"	The Sims 4
processor	- Intel i5 10400 - AMD Ryzen 5600	-.3 GHz Intel Core i3-3220 (2 cores and 4 threads) - AMD Ryzen 1200.1 GHz (4 cores) or higher
Memory	- 12 GB RAM	- 4 GB RAM
Graphics Card	- NVIDIA RTX 2060 (6G VRAM) - AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT (6G VRAM)	- NVIDIA GeForce 6600 or higher - ATI Radeon X1300 or higher - Intel GMA X4500 or higher
storage	- 40 GB	- 26 GB

In terms of memory, the minimum configuration of The Sims 4 only requires 4 GB of RAM, while inZOI requires 12 GB of RAM. The differences in graphics card requirements are the most astonishing. "The Sims 4" only requires 128 MB of video memory and supports Pixel Shader.0, and supports NVIDIA GeForce 6600, ATI Radeon X1300, Intel GMA X4500 and other graphics cards. The minimum configuration of "inZOI" requires players to have at least NVIDIA RTX 2060 (6G VRAM) or AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT (6G VRAM).

The high configuration requirements of "inZOI" may limit its potential

Given the casual nature of the game, such high PC configuration requirements are really surprising. While inZOI has the potential to compete with EA's The Sims series in terms of gaming, its high PC configuration requirements, especially the minimum configuration, may turn many casual players with low-end or mid-range PCs out, which will undoubtedly limit its development potential. Unless these players are willing to upgrade their PCs, it's hard for inZOI to form a real competition for the Sims series unless it reduces its minimum configuration requirements.

While inZOI has the potential to compete with EA's The Sims series in terms of gameplay, its high PC configuration requirements may limit its player count and affect its success as the Sims series.
