“Love and Deepspace” is Genshin Impact’s New Competitor
The Gacha game segment has long been fiercely competitive, especially considering the vast number of games in this genre. Following the resounding success of Genshin Impact in 2020, many new projects have emerged, yet not all have managed to make a significant impact in the current landscape.
Nevertheless, there are still notable newcomers that have captured attention and consistently garnered large audiences. One such title is Love and Deepspace, set to launch in January 2024. While it may still be in its infancy compared to “pioneers” like Genshin Impact, this explosive newcomer is generating significant buzz.

Notably, just recently in January, Love and Deepspace officially reached a milestone of 50 million global players. This impressive figure not only highlights its success but also sets a high bar for new games entering the market.
Love and Deepspace Aims to Surpass Genshin Impact
Though it is only one year old, Love and Deepspace has quickly achieved 50 million players. However, it’s important to note that this number does not represent simultaneous players, yet it is still a commendable achievement. In comparison, Genshin Impact, which has been around for over four years, reached approximately 61.5 million players by October 2024.

Of course, various factors influence player counts over time, but this does not undermine Love and Deepspace’s evident success. The game is receiving significant attention not just within the Chinese market but globally as well. It is highly likely that in the near future, the player base of Love and Deepspace could surpass that of Genshin Impact if this explosive momentum continues as it is now.
