It’s been a heck of a year for Love and Deepspace, but it’s clearly on its way to more wider, global recognition. The Infold Games-developed romance visual novel has won big at gamescom this year.
Love and Deepspace grabbed the award for Best Mobile Game at the German show, beating other major – and much more widely known – titles.

This is an even bigger win for Love and Deepspace when you consider how much less popular it is than many of the MiHoYo games, such as Zenless Zone Zero, Genshin Impact, and Honkai: Star Rail.
In fact, LaDs was the only Chinese game given an award this year at all. MiHoYo, of course, is a fellow Chinese developer, and while the press release doesn’t mention it by name, it does make it a point to mention that fact. Indeed, Genshin Impact was itself among the list of nominees. This win also makes Love and Deepspace the first romance game to earn that award, which is a nice bonus.
In celebration, if you log in from now until August 28 you’ll earn various in-game rewards, so get on it.
Love and Deepspace is actually the second entry in the Mr. Love series. It’s much more internationally recognised that its predecessor, of course. It’s a recent arrival, too, having landed just last year.
The developer revealed at gamescom that the game has over 70 million players worldwide. It’s not just players, either, the game broke its all-time revenue record last month, according to data from Sensor Tower – with a lot of that coming from outside China. There’s a reason Love and Deepspace is consistently among the top ten Chinese mobile games in overseas revenue.
If you’ve never heard of Love and Deepspace, there’s a lot we can help you with (and a lot you’re missing out on). If you’re a regular player, you’re probably more interested in untangling the game’s Abyssal Chaos endgame roguelike mode.
