I'm a bit fatigued from traditional dating sites, and while I'm not a gamer gamer, I definitely game enough for it to be aligned with my identity. While I may not have found my Player Two, I did have a lot of fun exploring and connecting with other gamers.
What is Date Player 2?
Date Player 2 was launched in 2021, so it's a much younger company than most. It doesn't matter if you're a console player, PC gamer, mobile gaming enthusiast — there's something for everyone.
The TLDR; on Date Player 2
First off, I loved that the language is all tailored to gamers. What I noticed immediately was:
- They do manual profile/photo verification. With ~15k members, it's nice to have that personal touch.
- They mention having 24/7 customer support.
- Date Player 2 frames itself not just as a dating site, but a community and social network.
- They seem super focused on safety and privacy, including an anti-slavery policy (!!).
How to cancel Date Player 2 account: You have to submit a request to customer service to cancel recurring billing, then separately delete your profile on the Membership Status page.
Does Date Player 2 have a trial? No trial BUT they gave me a 10% off voucher with 2 days to use.
You're prolly wondering is Date Player Two legit?
From my experience on the site, it seems pretty legit. The gamers I connected with all seemed like real people, and the activity feed and community aspect allowed me to connect with those who are more active.
Date Player 2 review of the signup process
Signing up was pretty fun because it was aesthetically pleasing. You select who you're looking for, location, date of birth, email, and the types of games you like. Then what kind of relationship and age range. They gave me a username suggestion and allowed ID verification.
From there, I was dropped into "The Lobby" — your homebase and activity feed that makes it feel more like a social network than just a dating site.
