In the highly realistic life simulation inZOI, an unexpected supernatural element is making its way into the game – ghosts. The developers have taken a unique approach to this phenomenon by integrating it with the game's karma system. In inZOI, a Zoi who accumulates enough karma points will pass on to the afterlife, while those who fall short remain as ghosts until they gather enough points to move on.

For now, in the Early Access version, ghost mechanics will play a limited role, focusing on interactions between living Zois and spirits. Players will be able to encounter ghosts at specific moments and under certain conditions, though direct control over them is not yet possible. However, future updates are expected to expand on this aspect, and the developers are already experimenting with different interactions.

Key ghost-related features:

  • Ghost Appearance Rate Slider – Players will have control over how frequently ghosts appear in their game.

  • More Creepy Than Goofy – Ghosts will be designed to be eerie and unsettling rather than humorous.

  • Lingering Fear – Unexpected ghost encounters may leave living Zois in a negative emotional state.

  • Emotional Reunions – Some Zois may experience heartwarming and dramatic moments when reuniting with deceased loved ones.

  • Ghost Experts – A new profession, such as clairvoyants, may be introduced to help Zois interact with spirits.

  • Personality Traits Carry Over – A Zoi's behavior in life will affect their ghostly persona, from mild-mannered spirits to mischievous troublemakers.

  • Unique Tasks for Ghosts – Special ghost-exclusive tasks will be introduced for players interested in deeper gameplay.

  • Cultural Influences on Ghosts – The behavior of ghosts in inZOI will incorporate elements from Korean folklore for added variety.

Ghosts add another layer of depth and emotion to inZOI's life simulation. While the game remains committed to its realistic core, exploring fantasy-driven elements in the future could make the gameplay experience even more intriguing.
