Love And Deepspace, ikinci yıl dönümü için uzay imparatorluğu temalı 5.0 sürüm güncellemesinin 31 Aralık'ta yayınlanacağını doğruladı.

Love and Deepspace, the anime-style otome action RPG with more than 50 million downloads worldwide, is preparing a major thematic shift with its upcoming Version 5.0 update. The release is set for December 31 and marks the game’s second anniversary, introducing a full science fiction setting centered on interstellar empires, rebellion, and centralized power.

Developed by Infold Games, Love and Deepspace combines real-time combat, gacha systems, and romance-focused storytelling built around five recurring male characters. Until now, its narrative has remained grounded in contemporary and fantastical settings. Version 5.0 moves that structure into a galactic framework, borrowing heavily from classic space opera imagery and political conflict.

A newly released teaser trailer outlines the fictional history behind the update’s setting.“In Cosmic Year 1, humanity, amid the boundless cosmos, established a home in the Alore Galaxy. Thus, the Cosmic Empire was born.”— Infold Games

The trailer continues by establishing a long-running power struggle that defines the new storyline

“In Cosmic Year 128, power was divided, and factions stirred. The Empire's rebels migrated to the Neezir Galaxy and founded the Glory Federation. For hundreds of years, the Empire and the Federation stood in opposition.”— Infold Games

Rather than placing the player as a neutral observer, Infold is positioning them at the top of this hierarchy. Promotional material indicates that players will be crowned Empress of the Cosmic Empire, a notable shift from previous story arcs where authority was more evenly distributed among characters. A second anniversary tagline underscores that direction.

“Before a Dominant Will, Even the Cosmos Bows.”— Infold Games

The core cast—Sylus, Caleb, Zayne, Rafayel, and Xavier—will return within the new setting, recontextualized as figures operating inside a galaxy-spanning conflict involving starships, rival factions, and imperial control. While Infold has not confirmed specific gameplay changes, the scale and tone of the teaser suggest the focus will be on narrative presentation, worldbuilding, and character dynamics rather than a fundamental redesign of combat systems.

Additional details are expected during a livestream scheduled for December 26 on the official Love and Deepspace YouTube channel. The broadcast is expected to outline Version 5.0’s story content, event structure, and anniversary rewards ahead of its release at the end of the year.

With tens of millions of downloads, Love and Deepspace remains one of the most commercially successful otome RPGs on mobile platforms. The decision to lean into a full space opera aesthetic for its anniversary update signals an attempt to expand the game’s narrative scope while maintaining its character-driven appeal. Whether the shift resonates long-term will become clearer once Version 5.0 goes live.
