We have recently become aware of an incident involving the unlawful acquisition and dissemination of in-development game assets. Immediate action has been taken to collect relevant information, and a formal report has been filed with law enforcement authorities. The development team is now working closely with the authorities to support the ongoing investigation. We are continuing to closely monitor any further dissemination of the leaked content and will take appropriate action as needed. We urge all players and community members to refrain from sharing or engaging with any leaked materials. Please avoid any actions that may contribute to the further spread of such content, and let us work together to uphold a lawful and orderly online environment. We would also like to clarify that the leaked materials primarily consist of temporary assets and do not represent the final quality of the game. For the most accurate and up-to-date experience, please refer only to official announcements and in-game content upon release. We would also like to take this opportunity to address the recurring issue of unauthorized leaks. We understand and share the frustration and disappointment of our dedicated community in light of these repeated, malicious and illegal leaks. However, we want to assure everyone that our team has never turned a blind eye to such incidents, nor have we ever engaged in or condoned any form of staged leaks for publicity purposes. When a similar leak occurred in June of last year, we promptly filed a report and actively followed up on the case. With the assistance from law enforcement, the primary suspect was identified, and the case has since entered the judicial process. Due to procedural constraints, we are unable to disclose further details at this time. Internally, we have implemented comprehensive measures to strengthen our confidentiality protocols—including enhanced training for all relevant teams, stricter penalties for breaches, and improved workflow oversight to minimize risks. We have also established dedicated monitoring systems and teams to swiftly detect and address any unauthorized disclosures. As a result of these efforts, we have successfully intercepted several attempts to illegally obtain and distribute our unreleased content. Regrettably, however, these measures have not been sufficient to prevent all incidents. Since the launch of Love and Deepspace, we have been deeply moved by the incredible support and passion from our community. Unfortunately, such attention has also drawn malicious attempts to undermine our work. The illegal acquisition and distribution of in-development materials is an issue that all game developers and players rightfully condemn. Despite our rigorous technical safeguards and continuous investigations, such leaks continue to occur. We fully understand the frustration this may cause, and we want to assure you that these leaks are in no way intentional or beneficial to us. Leaked content disrupts internal development timelines, marketing plans, and planned release schedules. More importantly, it negatively affects the player experience and the valuable feedback we may receive on upcoming versions. From any perspective, such actions are deeply harmful to everyone who genuinely loves and supports the game. Once again, we sincerely ask all players and supporters of Love and Deepspace to refrain from sharing any unofficial or confidential content. This includes illegally obtained materials as well as unverified "insider information." We will continue to collect evidence and pursue legal action against all such violations and their dissemination. Even engagement driven by curiosity can unintentionally contribute to the spread and negative impact of these harmful leaks. Curiosity may arise from love, but true care is shown through protection. Like all dedicated Deepspace Hunters, we sincerely hope that every carefully designed detail can be revealed in its best possible form. Resisting illegal leaks is not just our responsibility—it's a shared commitment to protecting creativity, nurturing the development process, and safeguarding the player experience. Our efforts to investigate and pursue legal action in response to such incidents will not cease. While we recognize that leaks are an industry-wide challenge impacting many game projects, our determination to protect our game and our players remains unwavering. Please also note that due to legal constraints, we may not be able to share updates on our investigations publicly. It is an honor to stand alongside all Deepspace Hunters in protecting our Linkon City together. Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
