"Love and Deepspace Adds Face Verification in China"

Love and Deepspace is taking a significant step forward with its security enhancements in China, introducing a face verification system set to launch in April 2025. While it may sound intense, this move aligns with existing regulations in the country.

Why Is Love and Deepspace Adding Face Verification?

For Chinese players, this isn't a major shift, as China already mandates strict real-name authentication for online games. This measure is particularly aimed at preventing minors from accessing games rated 18+, like Love and Deepspace, which falls into this category in China.

This initiative is part of China's wider effort to address gaming addiction among minors, as outlined in the Minors’ Protection Law. Over the years, China has tightened its control over the gaming sector, implementing measures such as strict playtime limits: 90 minutes on weekdays and three hours on weekends.

Additionally, games are required to display 'Healthy Gaming Advice' before players begin, encouraging them to take breaks and avoid excessive gaming. Facial recognition is already integrated into everyday life in China, used for security purposes in places like airports and banks.

What Does It Mean for Us?

For players outside of China, this new system should not impact your gameplay, as the verification measures are tailored to China's specific regulations. Love and Deepspace remains rated 12+ in most global app stores, and there is no indication that a face verification system will be introduced globally in the future.
