A new chapter in gaming history has been written at Gamescom 2025 in Cologne, as Love and Deepspace, the hyper-realistic 3D romance game from Infold Games, won the coveted Best Mobile Game Award. This marks the first time a romance game has ever earned this honor, signaling a turning point for the recognition of female-focused games on the global stage.
A Milestone for Romance Games
Produced in Beijing by Infold Games, Love and Deepspace has broken barriers for the romance genre, which has often been underrepresented in mainstream awards. At the ceremony, producer Lizi expressed both pride and gratitude:
“Today is truly a momentous day for us. The list of nominees included many outstanding Chinese games, and being recognized alongside them, showing the world the creative strength of Chinese games, is an honor in itself.”
The Evolution of Love and Deepspace
Released in 2024 as the second installment of Infold’s Mr. Love series, the game blends a first-person perspective, cinematic storytelling, and hyper-realistic 3D modeling. The result is a deeply immersive interactive romance experience that feels closer to a movie than a traditional mobile game.
Players step into the story as active participants, forging relationships with lifelike characters while navigating a narrative filled with emotional depth, drama, and companionship.
Global Success and Market Impact
Since its launch, Love and Deepspace has become a global phenomenon:
- Topped App Store charts in multiple regions during pre-download.
- 10 million downloads within three days of release.
- Over 70 million players worldwide to date.
- Record-breaking revenue in July 2025, with overseas income up 48% month-over-month, securing a spot among the top ten Chinese mobile games by overseas revenue, according to Sensor Tower.
This market performance, coupled with its critical recognition at Gamescom, underscores the growing appetite for female-focused interactive storytelling games on the world stage.
Redefining the Future of Mobile Games
Love and Deepspace’s victory is not just a win for Infold Games but a milestone for the entire romance genre. It demonstrates that narrative-driven, emotionally resonant titles can compete at the highest level of global recognition alongside action, strategy, and RPG juggernauts.
With its Gamescom win, Infold Games has solidified Love and Deepspace as more than just a hit mobile title—it’s a cultural phenomenon shaping the future of mobile gaming.
