## Description

Rendered Real is a crossover collaboration between Love and Deepspace and Blade Runner 2049, running October 19, 2026 (05:00) to November 5, 2026 (04:59) server time. Infold Games released a concept trailer titled "Interlinked" that frames the event around themes of memory, perception, and whether love can be real — directly referencing the film's Joi/K storyline and the baseline test. The event features all five love interests (Xavier, Zayne, Sylus, Caleb, Rafayel) in Blade Runner-aesthetic key art as giant holograms in the rain. Free 10-day check-in rewards include: Duo Photo Pose [At Your Touch] (recreating the Joi and K hologram scene), Portrait Background [Manifest], and Sticker [2049]. A new story is included; full plot details were not available at time of archiving (event launched October 19, 2026). Limited card banners were announced as a separate announcement pending at time of archiving. Note: the event generated significant fan discussion around Valko, the cancelled sixth love interest — whose cyberpunk-tech-CEO concept was seen as thematically fitting for a Blade Runner collab.
