Audio System Improvement
Zois no longer waste time just listening to music. Turn on the audio and let them enjoy music while doing other activities!
Update Log
November 2, 2026
- Added English and Korean translations based on the inZOI language settings.
- Only Zois who enjoy music will occasionally turn on audio autonomously, and only when no music is currently playing in the household.
- If one audio source is already playing in a household, other Zois won't turn on additional audio sources.
- Prevented brief audio interruptions. Audio will no longer stop immediately when the game temporarily fails to detect the audio source.

- Added language support for English and Korean based on your inZOI language settings.
Immersive Spatial Audio
Enjoy a more realistic and immersive audio experience in inZOI! Sounds now respond more naturally to distance, walls, floors, and camera movement.
- Dynamic Volume: Audio volume adjusts naturally based on the distance between the camera and the sound source. Sounds become louder as you get closer and quieter as you move away.
- Realistic Sound Occlusion: Sounds coming from behind walls are quieter and more muffled, while sounds from floors above or below are barely audible.
- Smooth Zoom Transitions: Audio volume changes smoothly when zooming in or out, without sudden jumps in loudness.
- Floor-Aware Audio: When switching floors with PgUp/PgDn, you'll hear audio from the selected floor. When following a Zoi, audio also follows their movement as they walk up and down stairs.
- Seamless Audio Transitions: Sounds fade smoothly when the sound source or listening position changes, preventing abrupt audio cutoffs.
Bring Your Music Room to Life
Make your music room a place where Zois can relax, recharge, and dance!
- Staying in a music room activates the "Rhythm Recharge" moodlet.
- Press the Dance button to start dancing immediately.
- Zois dance autonomously according to their individual musical tastes and personalities.
- If music is already playing in the room, Zois will automatically turn on the audio system when needed to keep the music playing and prevent it from being drowned out by other sounds.
Natural Music in Cafés and Restaurants
- In cafés and restaurants, music volume automatically decreases when nearby conversations or other surrounding sounds are detected, creating a more natural listening experience.

- Zois will now autonomously turn on or listen to music only when they have music-related traits (such as being an artist) or when the music matches their personal preferences.
- Minimized music playback interruptions when rotating the camera.
- If an audio device is already playing at home, Zois will no longer automatically turn on another audio device.
