It seems we can forget about explicit sex scenes in inZOI

The developers of the upcoming life simulation game, inZOI, recently addressed fan questions, notably one regarding the depiction of intimate relationships. The assistant director's response regarding sexual content was deliberately ambiguous, avoiding explicit language. The implication is that romantic interactions between ZOI characters will lead to the possibility of children, but the visual representation will be left largely to the player's interpretation. The statement suggested the implementation might not be as explicit as some anticipated.

Therefore, the level of explicit content remains uncertain. It’s unclear whether inZOI will employ censorship similar to The Sims series or utilize a novel approach.

The developers also explained the decision to depict ZOI characters showering in towels instead of using pixelated censorship. They cited two key reasons: this approach is more aesthetically suitable for the game's cartoonish art style, while pixelation in a realistic style can appear overly sexualized. Furthermore, a technical issue involving reflections in mirrors when using pixelated censorship contributed to the decision.

Ultimately, the game's rating provides further insight. inZOI has received a T rating from the ESRB (for teens) and is expected to receive a PEGI 12 rating, mirroring the ratings of The Sims 4.
