Love and Deepspace is enhancing its security in China with a new face verification system launching in April 2025. This might sound a bit strict, but let's break down why it's happening and what it means for the rest of the world.
Why the Face Verification in China?
China already requires real-name authentication for online games, so this isn't entirely new. The face verification system specifically targets underage players. Since Love and Deepspace is rated 18+ in China, this measure aims to prevent minors from accessing the game, aligning with the country's Minors' Protection Law. This law also includes playtime restrictions for minors (90 minutes on weekdays, three hours on weekends, etc.) and mandates "Healthy Gaming Advice" prompts before gameplay. Facial recognition is already widely used in China for various security purposes, such as airport and bank security.
Global Impact?
For players outside China, this change is unlikely to affect your gameplay. The face verification system is directly tied to China's regulations. Love and Deepspace maintains a 12+ rating in most global app stores, making a similar system for international players improbable.
