Chill out over the holidays in a town full of endless possibilities

Shanghai, China — December 4, 2025 | XD Games is happy to announce that the final closed beta test for Heartopia will kick off on PC and Android, on 10 December, and it will run through to 23 December. Anyone who plays the upcoming life simulation game, during this period, will be rewarded with items that they can claim once Heartopia officially launches next year.

Players who successfully create a character during the final beta test — as well as those who successfully created a character during the first beta test — will receive one Blueberry Crossbody Bag in-game cosmetic, which can be claimed when Heartopia launches, in early 2026. On top of that, players who reach level 18 during the final beta test — or, again, those who reached level 18 during the first beta test — will receive one Star Mascot Head in-game cosmetic, which can also be claimed when Heartopia launches, in 2026.

Pre-registration is now open on the App Store for iOS users, Google Play for Android users, and via the official website for PC players. Anyone who pre-registers will receive a selection of in-game items, including Gold x4000, Wishing Star x20, Moonlight Crystal x400, and Exhibition Pass x60, when the game is officially released.

What is Heartopia?

Heartopia blends narrative roleplay, life simulation, and personal connection. Set in a contemporary, stylish urban world, the game focuses on everyday warmth: think conversations over coffee, shared routines, self-expression, and moments of emotional discovery.

Players create their own lives, building friendships and exploring romance options along the way, making choices that influence how others respond to them. Heartopia prioritises authenticity and emotional realism: relationships evolve naturally, characters react to your behaviour, and your daily decisions gradually define who you become in the world.

Heartopia is built around several core pillars that define the experience. Players can expect deep relationship and narrative systems that allow connections to grow naturally through meaningful choices and emotional interactions. Avatars, outfits, and living spaces are fully customisable, giving players freedom to express their personal style and create a life that feels uniquely their own. Daily routines and social encounters unfold in real time, encouraging organic moments, chance meetings, and a sense of everyday rhythm.

Alongside this, the world offers light and comforting exploration, with gentle activities that support relaxation and immersion rather than pressure or grind. All of this is set within an evolving city filled with story events and memorable characters, each adding depth to the world and inviting players to discover new experiences as they go.

With a welcoming aesthetic and grounded emotional tone, Heartopia aims to offer a space that feels familiar, comforting, and personal.

Play as your favorite PDude, defeat countless enemies in a mission-driven bullet heaven shooter

TUCSON, Ariz – Dec. 3, 2025 – POSTAL: Bullet Paradise, a timeline-hopping dystopian bullet heaven first-person shooter with POSTAL’s signature darkly humorous personality from publisher Running With Scissors and developer Goonswarm Games, blasts through hordes on Steam via PC, Mac, and Linux in Q3 2026, with PlayStation 4|5, and Nintendo Switch versions to follow.

Everyone’s happy in Paradise…except for the POSTAL Dude. Stuck in a shitty future full of forced positivity, constant surveillance, obnoxiously bright lights, and social credit scores, the POSTAL Dude just wants to relax and drink a few beers. So when Paradise’s automated enforcers flag him as a threat due to a “negative demeanor”, the hapless everyman POSTAL Dude is once again pulled off his couch and into the action.

The POSTAL Dude doesn’t want to be a hero. He just wants things to go back to normal so he can watch TV in peace.

Suit up for chaos as one of 11 playable POSTAL Dudes from different timelines, each with their own starting loadout and perks. Blast through hordes of enemies with an evolving arsenal of POSTAL weapons and gadgets. Purge punkasses in Paradise and beyond, fighting through iconic POSTAL locations and all-new environments, completing mission-specific objectives and securing powerful weapon upgrades and modifiers that might even crack a smile on the POSTAL Dude’s face.

Balance firepower and the Dude’s signature lack of impulse control. POSTAL: Bullet Paradise runs are lightning fast and full of action. Rain shotgun fire on throngs of cultists, dodge out of danger as protestors swarm the scene, and heal up with pizza before dishing out damage to challenging bosses spreading forced positivity and blocking progression. 

Experiment with different weapon upgrades and modifiers to create an unstoppable Dude. Complete mission objectives to unlock new guns and meta unlocks. Paradise’s streets are rife with opportunity for the enterprising Dude, making different loadouts and tactics the key to victory. And if that wasn’t enough, call in a friend with online co-op support for up to four players. 

“POSTAL: Bullet Paradise is all about releasing the essence of POSTAL and its signature gallows humor into an over-the-top and highly replayable package,” said Artem Korovkin, CEO, Goonswarm Games. “Equal parts irreverent and action-packed, we’re thrilled to partner with Running With Scissors to bring this dystopian slice of Paradise to life.”

“No way in Hell Mike J is going to Heaven,” laughed Running With Scissors founder Vince Desi. “But he’s definitely gunning for POSTAL: Bullet Paradise next year.”

POSTAL Bullet Paradise will launch on Steam with PC, Mac, and Linux support in Q3 2026 for $19.99. PlayStation 4|5 and Nintendo Switch versions are planned for a later date. For more information, wishlist the game on Steam and visit the official Running With Scissors website.
