Heartopia‘s final beta test is now live, running from December 10th until December 23rd, 2025. While much of what’s on display right now is the same as in the previous beta last month, there are a few new quality-of-life tweaks that will surely be welcome to returning players, alongside a first look at the somewhat tacked-on cosmetics gacha system in the form of the Polar Hymn outfit and furniture banners which are available for the duration.
As with the first beta test last month, there will be various rewards for taking part, although some require a bigger commitment than others. Read on for everything you need to know about claiming the Star Mascot Head and other rewards in the Heartopia final beta.
How to get the Heartopia Final Beta rewards
There are two confirmed rewards for taking part in the Heartopia Final Beta that will carry over to the full release, which is planned for 2026.
The Blueberry Crossbody Bag is the reward given to everybody who takes part in the beta test. What’s more, players in the Final Beta get to model it for themselves during the duration of the test, with XD providing assurances that you’ll be able to claim a permanent version once the game launches in full as thanks for your participation.
The second reward – which isn’t guaranteed just for stopping by – is the Star Mascot Head. This exclusive cosmetic will only be claimable by players who reach Level 18 during the final beta test – a feat XD estimates will take about 12 real-world days. Since the beta itself is live for less than two weeks, obviously the idea is to encourage you to play every day.
You will be able to model your fancy headwear during the final beta, should you manage to obtain it, as well as receiving a permanent copy in the full game when it launches. You’ll clearly need to be quite enthusiastic about Heartopia to reach this stage, as it’s definitely more time-intensive than just logging in for a few minutes.
For reference, I played about seven hours of the first beta and reached Level 11 through focusing on a combination of main story quests, side quests, and daily activities. Levelling requirements increase in small increments, so from that I’ve extrapolated an estimated play-time of about an hour a day during those 12 days to hit the goal.
The devs at XD have definitively stated that returning players who took part in either beta test (and met the requirements where applicable) will be able to claim their rewards when the full game goes live sometime next year, but with no word yet on exactly how this will work.
There’s also the returning 7-Day Sign-In Event as seen in the recent First Beta, although it’s unclear whether those rewards will carry over to the full release next year. They aren’t listed in promotional materials alongside the Blueberry Crossbody Bag and Star Mascot Head, so it’s perhaps best not to expect them, although it’d be a nice surprise if you can start the game as a car owner as thanks for your participation in the beta tests.
