Image Playground is not available Xcode 16.2 beta

Hello, I am trying to show an imagePlaygroundSheet but when I open it in the 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max iOS 18.2 simulator, I see "Image Playground is not available. Image Playground is not available on this iPhone". The environment variable supportsImagePlayground always returns false.

I changed the simulator language and region to US but still see the error. Is this expected?

You can’t use any of the Apple Intelligence features on the simulator. You have to use a physical device.
