Heartopia received a flash update on August 26, 2026, aimed at resolving various gameplay issues ranging from event mechanics to cosmetic item interactions. The update occurred between 12:00 and 14:00 (UTC-5), and players may have needed to log in again to apply the changes.
Key Bug Fixes
The update specifically addressed several technical issues affecting player experience, including:
- Event Fixes: The Hot Air Balloon event now functions correctly between 3:30 PM and 4:00 PM (Server Time) on weekdays. Additionally, D.G. Members will no longer experience incorrect stamping of Order Tickets, and camera errors in Selfie Mode following the event have been resolved.
- Visual and Cosmetic Adjustments: Players can now correctly wear the Wanderer Star Cowboy Boots and Wanderer Ripped Long Socks together. The Seashell Lollipop color display and the butterfly effect on the Jungle Acorn Jar Slope have also been corrected.
- Gameplay Mechanics: Issues involving pets appearing on planters, expression loss in Selfie Mode, and the missing visual effect for Cupid's Radiant Arrow have been fixed. Furthermore, the Guild Sign-In event now correctly applies remedies on Sundays.
- General Improvements: Notifications regarding rainy weather preventing the Hot Air Balloon event have been optimized, and clipping issues with D.G. Members' heads when sharing large dishes have been resolved.
Compensation and Next Milestones
To acknowledge the maintenance period, developer XD International is providing all D.G. Members with a compensation package containing 8,000 Gold and 5 Wishing Stars. Players must claim this gift via the in-game mailbox by August 29, 2026, at 17:00 (UTC-5).
Looking ahead, the new "Town Festival: Echo of Ancients" season is scheduled to begin on August 29 at 6:00 AM (Server Time) and will run through October 10. Participation is open to D.G. Members who have reached level 7.
