How To Change Your Gender And Dating Preferences In InZoi

InZoi is an innovative life-simulation game that offers a fresh challenge for The Sims enthusiasts. You can dive into this exciting game starting March 27, as it will be available in early access. Before you embark on your gaming journey, there are certain aspects during the character creation phase that you might not want to overlook, especially if your character is intended to pursue romantic relationships. This is because certain character attributes cannot be altered later, so making the wrong choices could force you to restart from scratch. Here, we’ll walk you through the process of creating a character in InZoi, including choosing your gender identity and love interests.

Customizing your character profile

Basic information

In the process of making your character, the details provided under the “Character Profile” section will remain constant as you progress through the game; these cannot be altered or modified afterward.

This starts with basic information: Name, age group, and gender.

How to change your gender identity and dating preferences

To the right of the gender selection, there’s a symbol resembling a pencil and notebook – see the picture above. It can be hard to spot, but it’s where you customize your character’s essential details regarding their gender identity and romantic preferences.

If you overlook this stage, your character may default to a heterosexual one, potentially leading to uncomfortable situations if you intend to portray or develop romantic relationships involving non-heterosexual characters.

This option allows you to select from male, female, or non-binary identities for your character, determine if your character engages in romantic relationships, and specify whom your character finds attractive.

For the attraction, you can choose all that apply:

Male
Female
Non-binary

Choose a Trait

Similar to The Sims, you’ll pick a characteristic for your character’s personality. This selected characteristic may influence your character’s feelings and requirements that stem from various game actions. Once you move past the character customization screens, this characteristic can’t be altered, so it’s important to make a thoughtful choice.

You’ll find a selection of 18 diverse characteristics to pick from, including Dreamer, Leader, Scholar, Explorer, Sociable, and Perfectionist.

Selecting a Desired Life (Optional)

As a passionate creator, I absolutely love the freedom to pick a “Preferred Existence” for my characters! This extra touch brings another dimension to their lives, providing them with a clear path to live by, pursue objectives, and more. It’s like giving them a personal blueprint for their journey!

As an enthusiast of all things artistic, embracing a Creative Life Journey becomes my heart’s aspiration. This path fuels my longing to convey emotions and character through various art forms – be it painting, acting, or music-making. It’s perfect for those yearning to become artists, entertainers, or musicians. Notably, it resonates strongly with the Dreamer and Visionary personality types.

Life aspirations tend to evolve in the real world, and with InZoi, you can easily switch to a new Preferred Way of Life whenever you want.

Of course, it’s entirely up to you! Feel free to skip filling out the “Desired Life” section if you prefer to let your character navigate their journey without a specific goal in mind.

Customizing appearance

The last stage in the character creation process allows you to personalize every aspect of your character’s appearance. With more than 250 customization choices available on InZoi, you can make your characters truly distinct. You have the freedom to modify facial characteristics, body type, clothing, accessories, and even nail art designs to suit your preferences.

Clothing items can be tailored and selected according to different events, such as formal attire for evenings, school uniforms, sleepwear, and fashionable options for both hot and chilly climates.
