Valve has officially launched Steam Family Sharing, allowing users to connect their accounts with up to five others to share their game libraries. This feature is perfect for families and friends who want to enjoy each other's games without purchasing multiple copies. The "parent" account can add or remove members and approve or deny purchase requests from "child" accounts, offering control over spending and game access.
While shared games are accessible to all family members, note that multiplayer games require each user to own their own copy to play simultaneously. This ensures fair play and supports game developers. For more details, check out Valve's official announcement and their introduction video.

With no release date announced yet, inZOI has significant potential to grow and become a major player in simulation gaming. Fans of The Sims and city-building games should keep an eye on this title. For an in-depth look, read IGN's first preview and watch the exclusive gameplay trailer.
