The developers of Love and Deepspace have canceled the planned launch of a new werewolf character named Valko following intense fan opposition. The announcement came on June 30, 2026, days before the scheduled July 9 debut. The studio also pledged no further new love interests will be added.
The team behind the gacha game stated on X that it had decided to cancel both the launch and any further development of the character. It committed to focusing resources on the five existing love interests instead.
Developers promised to deliver some planned content from the canceled update, including a new photo mode feature. They also announced 30 days of premium freebies for players.
Some fans had protested the addition of Valko, claiming it diverted attention from improvements to resource farming and the main storyline. Reports indicated over one million players left the game and that cow dung was left at company headquarters.
Other players expressed disappointment at the cancellation, with messages in the game's Discord calling for Valko's return and warning that the decision rewards extreme complaints.
