If you’re a devoted admirer of the golden retriever boyfriend persona, chances are you gravitated towards Xavier as soon as you started playing Love and Deepspace. Since that moment, you may have had little reason to explore the other characters introduced after the tutorial. This preference is entirely valid, as Xavier undeniably stands out as the most lovable character in the game.
In an exciting twist, Xavier marks the latest birthday among the love interests available so far, giving players an excellent opportunity for a festive gathering with their beloved 3D companions. His birthday celebration in the game is particularly special, occurring in the last quarter of the year, making it the final chance to party with him until 2026—unless a surprise appearance of the elusive sixth love interest occurs soon.
The upcoming event titled **Trace the Stars** will celebrate Xavier’s birthday from October 11th to 18th, 2025. This provides players with just over a week to engage in event activities and participate in two birthday banners, one of which is new for this year while the other is a rerun from 2024.
Participating in the Trace the Stars Event in LaDS
To join in on the birthday festivities for Xavier, you simply need to have unlocked him as a love interest. For those who haven’t yet achieved this, unlocking him is easy—players need only to complete Chapter 1, Stage 4 of the main storyline, which is quick to accomplish since he is your tutorial companion.
Once you’ve unlocked Xavier, just log into the game during the birthday week, and navigate to the Events tab to access the **Trace the Stars** event page.
On the event landing page, you will find various activities to celebrate Xavier’s special day. Participation in each activity not only enhances the celebration but also rewards you with Starward Reels, a special currency exclusive to this time-limited event. These can be utilized in the event’s Starry Shop.
Following the familiar format of birthday festivities in LaDS, Xavier’s event features themed activities that add a unique touch. Here’s a brief outline of the event activities:
- Birthday Warm-Up Storyline: This four-part side story unfolds daily from October 11th, with subsequent chapters released on the 13th and 15th-16th. It offers a unique narrative focused on discovering Xavier’s backstory and his newfound interest in astronomy after becoming stranded in Linkon City.
- Heart’s Whispers: Create a personalized birthday message of up to 60 characters for Xavier. Players can edit their messages until the big day arrives.

- Blueprints: Use the Inspiration components collected in the mini-game to unlock Blueprints that offer DIY ideas for the cake, complete with brief narratives behind each design choice.
- DIY: Combine all collected components to craft a personalized birthday cake for Xavier, including various shapes, flavors, and decorations. You can save up to 20 design drafts.
On October 17th, which is Xavier’s actual birthday, players will receive a video call where he shares his experiences and thoughts on the celebration.

As is customary with limited currencies in LaDS, any unused Starward Reels will automatically convert to a permanent currency once the event concludes. However, their purchasing power may diminish over time.
Players should also keep an eye on their in-game mail during the event, as all participants will receive 10 Limited Deepspace Wishes. These are specifically for the new Between Stars banner, and won’t apply to reruns of Xavier’s previous messages. If not redeemed during the event, they will convert to regular Empyrian Wishes usable on the permanent X-Space Echo banner.
In summary, whether you’re inclined to use your wishes on Xavier’s birthday banner or save them for later, it’s essential to collect and claim them.
