Love and Deepspace is enhancing its security in China with a new face verification system, launching in April 2025. This might sound strict, but it's primarily aimed at preventing underage players from accessing the 18+ rated game in China.
Why the Face Verification?
China already mandates real-name authentication for online games. This new system further reinforces those rules, specifically targeting minors and preventing them from playing games like Love and Deepspace, which carries an 18+ rating within the country. It's part of China's broader initiative under the Minors' Protection Law to combat gaming addiction among young people. This includes playtime restrictions (90 minutes on weekdays, three hours on weekends), and mandatory "Healthy Gaming Advice" prompts before gameplay. Facial recognition technology is already widely used in China for various security purposes, including in airports and banks.
Global Impact?
For players outside China, this change likely won't affect your gameplay. The face verification system is directly tied to China's regulations. Since Love and Deepspace maintains a 12+ rating in most global app stores, there are no plans to implement similar verification globally.
