Okay, so get this: there’s a game called inZOI that’s about to drop this DLC, right? It’s this new thing called Island Getaway. Weird name, but whatever. They’re basically giving it away for free, like, “Here, take it,” which is unusual but hey, nice surprise.
Oh, and here’s a twist — it’s hitting Macs for the first time. Crazy, because who even uses a Mac to game? But I guess someone out there is cheering about it.
Launch date? August 20. But before that, there’s this big reveal at gamescom on the 19th. Honestly thought they’d keep it under wraps until then, but nope, they just blurted it out ahead of time. Classic Krafton move, right?
This add-on is setting up a new map called Cahaya — sounds exotic. It’s got two islands, very Southeast Asia vibes. You’re gonna be swimming, snorkeling, basically living the island life. Suddenly I’m craving a coconut drink.
Farming’s a thing now, too. Don’t really get how that fits with the beach scene, but let’s roll with it. Oh, and dress-up! Tropical outfits and hairstyles to jazz up your avatar. Wonder if they’ve got Hawaiian shirts.
I see a picture from the game (thank you, random picture placement). Looks summery, like “Wish you were here” postcard vibes.
The update isn’t just about this new place; lots happening game-wide. Farming, fishing, mining — oh my! — and now you can zoom around on scooters and motorbikes. Imagine the wind through your pixelated hair.
Interaction stuff’s getting a boost, too. They’re adding what-they-call “cooperative actions.” Random meetups and thought bubbles — I kind of want to see these in action.
Quality of life changes, they say? Some UI tweaks and a whopping 90 new music tracks. And big news — early gamepad support. It’s in testing, so don’t hold your breath, but fingers crossed.
So anyway, all this happens August 20, and people with Macs can finally join the party on Steam and the App Store. Wonder how long they’ve been waiting?
