Cosy Life Sim Opens: Heartopia Offers Exclusive Rewards in Last Chance Beta Ahead of Release
The cosy life simulation genre is booming, with new contenders like Heartopia entering the market alongside established franchises. Developer XD Games has announced the final Closed Beta Test (CBT) for Heartopia, which will serve as the last opportunity for players to experience the game before its official worldwide release in early 2026. This final test runs from December 10th to December 23rd.
The update focuses on showcasing the title’s core selling points: a mix of narrative roleplay and a laid-back, low-pressure pace, setting it apart even within the notoriously easygoing life sim genre.
The Main Event: Final Beta and Progression Rewards
This CBT, available on both Android via Google Play and PC, is a crucial phase for gathering final feedback. While new feature details are light, the test is confirmed to include all previously released content and essential polish.
-
Test Dates: The final CBT runs from December 10th to December 23rd.
-
Gameplay Focus: The game highlights its relaxing core loop, including exploring a seamless town, engaging in various hobbies like fishing and gardening, and building customizable dream homes.
-
Pace: The structure is designed to be intentionally slow and laid-back, lacking the stamina systems or daily checklists common in other mobile titles.
Exclusive Launch Rewards
A significant draw for participants is the opportunity to secure exclusive cosmetic rewards that will carry over into the full launch in 2026. These rewards are available even if the player participated in a previous test:
-
Character Creation Reward: Simply creating a character (in this or a previous beta) will net the player the Blueberry Crossbody Bag.
-
Progression Reward: Reaching Level 18 in the current or any previous beta will grant the player the Star Mascot Head.
-
Pre-Registration Bonuses: Additional rewards like Gold and Wishing Stars are available for players who pre-register on the official site.
The final CBT ensures that players are rewarded for their participation and time spent testing the game’s core mechanics, providing a valuable head start when the title officially arrives in 2026.
