Updated: Oct 19, 2026 9:14pm UTCAt first glance the Love and Deepspace Blade Runner 2049 crossover is a cool, if unexpected, addition to the otome game's romantic universe, but it didn't take long for fans of the game to notice an uncomfortable parallel between one of the key storylines featuring the lead character's AI companion, Joi, and the canceled Love and Deepspace character Valko. Warning: Blade Runner 2049 spoilers below! In Blade Runner 2049, lead character K (Ryan Golsing) has a romantic relationship with an AI companion called Joi (played by Ana de Armas), but loses her when the "emanator" device that K uses that allows her to travel with him is destroyed. Love and Deepspace players immediately noted that something similar happened to the game's promised sixth love interest, Valko, a companion that players were already attached to when he was canceled by developer Infold just a week after his reveal following controversy around his character.
