Welcome Valley Villagers! I’m Joshua Labelle, the Creative Director of Disney Dreamlight Valley.

I’m delighted to celebrate almost two years of living magically with you, and to talk about some of what the future has in store for the Valley.


Since we launched Disney Dreamlight Valley, we have added a ton of exciting content for you to enjoy. In 2024 so far, we’ve introduced two free Realms and five new free characters, alongside an expansion pass that added even more characters, quests, furniture, and clothing. We’ve also made highly requested improvements to Scrooge McDuck’s Store, Furniture Mode, and DreamSnaps.

Today, we will unveil a bit more of what 2024 has in store, while reaffirming our dedication to listening to your feedback and making continual improvements to the game.


First hinted at in our last roadmap[disneydreamlightvalley.com], we’re so excited to bring Tiana to the Valley in our next free content update this August, alongside Tiana’s Palace, new outdoor décor, and a Star Path that will bring a touch of 1920’s class to your village.

Alongside the addition of Tiana, our expansion pass – Disney Dreamlight Valley: A Rift in Time – will also come to an epic close as part of this next update. You’ll venture deep into Jafar’s palace to put a stop to his schemes, alongside a few more exciting surprises. We’ll have more to share about this exciting update in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!

As we approach the end of our current roadmap, we know you’re eager to hear more about the future of the game. We invite you to check out our roadmap for the rest of 2024 below!

Our October update will be smaller in scope and shorter, with a focus on fixes and quality of life improvements to make your game experience smoother and more enjoyable as we ramp up to a bigger update later in the year. But that doesn’t mean the update won’t have some exciting surprises and new content as well!

We’re excited to announce that this update will also bring a beloved duo to the game: Timon and Pumbaa from Disney’s The Lion King! Return to The Lion King Realm to find new surprises and bring the pair back to your village. With a little aid from the Forgotten, you’ll help Timon and Pumbaa face down an invasion of Night Mites, a nasty new problem connected to Night Thorns and the Forgetting.

Later in the year, we’ll bring you another exciting Showcase, where we’ll reveal some big surprises still to come in 2024 (hopefully the teaser in the roadmap will tide you over!), alongside information about our 2025 roadmap.


Without spoiling too much about the future, we wanted to outline a few commitments that we plan to keep to you, our players, moving forward.


Last year, we promised to keep delivering free content updates that add new characters, Realms, clothing, furniture, and more surprises. That promise is as important today as it was then, especially when we look at new Villagers.

Recent surveys have played an important role by providing us insight into what you’d like to see in Disney Dreamlight Valley and 2025 is already shaping up to be a year full of exciting surprises.

Between the current roadmap and the surprises still to come in our Showcase, there’s a lot to be excited about as Disney Dreamlight Valley continues to grow!


Beyond growing the game with new content, we’re also focused on listening to your hopes and dreams about existing features and how they can be improved. From decorating to organizing your wardrobe and furniture to improving Photo Mode, we’re going to dedicate more time in the next year to making the features you know and love even better.

Scrooge McDuck's Store is a great example of this commitment. We have heard so much about the importance of this feature to your daily routines. We have improved the algorithm and layout to help you see more unique furniture, while also providing more items in the store with recent updates. We’re excited to continue providing improvements and new items – perhaps even some new clothing – to the store in future updates.

For the rest of 2024, we will have a strong focus on delivering more highly requested improvements like this.

For instance, look out for big improvements to our Furniture and Wardrobe menus in our next update. The update will include some of our most highly requested features to help you better sort through and manage your items – do you have any guesses?

We’ve also heard that your Valleys are getting a little, uh, crowded! We’re working on new, free features that will help to give you much more space and freedom to decorate.

We sincerely thank you for your patience as we listen to your feedback and work to make the game a better experience.


Some Disney Dreamlight Valley players love adventuring to other Villages, working together with friends to complete goals, and sharing their creativity with each other. Others come to the Valley for a cozy solo experience. No matter which way you prefer to play, we want to make you feel welcomed and rewarded as part of the community.

Coming in the next update, cross-platform multiplayer will arrive for PlayStation consoles. This means PlayStation users will be able to play with friends on other platforms, visit their villages, share Touch of Magic designs, and engage in DreamSnaps challenges. Watch out for cross-save on PlayStation consoles to be added later this year!

In 2025, we will be adding even more ways to play together. But don't worry if you prefer playing solo – these new features will still support you and be just as rewarding.


It’s an honor to work with the immensely talented team behind Disney Dreamlight Valley. We’re not just game developers – first and foremost, we’re superfans of the game, the genre, and Disney.

Our entire team is just as excited as you for every new character, clothing, and furniture, inspired by a lifelong love of Disney and Pixar stories and trips to Disney Parks.

As for me, I was that kid who knew every single line of Disney’s Aladdin by heart, wore out my VHS of The Lion King, and would try to find evidence of my Woody and Buzz Lightyear toys moving around my room when I wasn’t looking.

I’m still that kid at heart, and I hope that our game brings out that kid in you, whether it's through the magic of Disney or achieving peak life-sim coziness.

Each update, we eagerly look forward to your reactions, laugh at your memes and videos, and look for ways to improve the game based on your feedback. We can’t wait to share another year of living magically with all of you.

Stay tuned next week for a preview of our next update and be sure to watch out for our Showcase later this year to find out more about all of the exciting surprises we’ve got in store.

See you in the Valley!
