Disney Dreamlight Valley: The Celebration of Friendship has started

The Disney Dreamlight Valley life game thrives on throwing you into an enchanting world with tons of Disney characters. Now the celebration of friendship is on, introducing more characters like Mirabel and Olaf. A fat patch was released to go with it, which turns some basic systems upside down based on fan feedback.

Did you know that Disney is celebrating its 100th birthday this year? Traumschmiede was founded in 1923 and is now one of the largest media companies ever. Of course, this anniversary wants to be celebrated properly and where better than in Disney Dreamlight Valley?

Accordingly, the celebration of friendship has started, which brings with it a lot of new content. It should be exciting for many fans that Mirabel from Encanto and Olaf from Frozen find their way into the game. But a fresh Disney Centennial Star Path and Frozen Heights are also looking forward to your attention. There is also a new premium shop. Here you exchange your moonstones for cosmetic items. For example, premium clothing or furniture beckons and you can also change the appearance of their house.

But that’s not all, the developers are also ironing out a bunch of errors with a patch belonging to the festival of friendship and are implementing fan feedback. The comprehensive list of all changes can be found below.

New Content and Features

• “The Forgetting” Main Story continues: A snowstorm is brewing in Frosted Heights!
• New Character: Welcome the Valley’s resident snowman, Olaf, with a warm hug.
• New Character: As Disney celebrates the Wonder of Encanto around the world, Mirabel seizes the occasion to join the Valley, bringing with her Mini-Casita.
• Celebrate Disney’s 100th anniversary with a very special new Star Path inspired by real-world Disney100 items.
• Take your reno outside and change the look of your fully upgraded house with newly added house colors or acquire premium house skins from the Premium Shop.
• The Premium Shop opens! Use Moonstones to collect all sorts of exclusive, rotating cosmetic items like clothing, furniture, premium house skins and more. The Premium Shop content is separate from Scrooge McDuck’s General Store (which will also have content additions regularly). Be sure to check out the Premium Shop often to discover the latest items to help you express yourself and design your village just how you dream it to be.
• With the arrival of the Premium Shop, we have adjusted Daily Moonstone chests to increase the number of Moonstones they grant each day. They will now grant 50 Moonstones (previously 10).
• Scrooge McDuck General Store has received a shipment of new goods! Got Star Coins from your recent Pumpkin Puff haul burning a hole in your pocket? Keep an eye out for new clothing and furniture items in his stock.
• We’ve seen some of your storage rooms and we’re both impressed and scared. Chests that are crafted at Crafting Stations now come in three different varieties, offering larger storage capacities.
• While we appreciate the creative ways you’ve organized your chest hoards, we’ve added a little something to help. Craft customizable signposts to help remind you what’s in a specific chest or mark your fave fishing spot.
• Fridges now… fridge (well, minus the cooling). Furniture that is classified as storage – like fridges and cabinets – will now act as basic chest storage.
• Capping off storage-palooza, we’ve added quality of life features that allow you to auto sort your items, as well as quickly transfer items between your inventory and storage with smart transfer.
• Take that house reno back inside! You can now modify the look of doors inside your house based on ones you’ve collected, as well as adjust their placement.
• We’ve improved wallpaper management to add more variety in your house. Now, you can adjust wallpaper on a wall-by-wall basis instead of selecting one style for the whole room.
• Craft new Role Training Manuals to change the roles of your villagers. Whether you’re maximizing your gardening potential or giving Goofy a new hobby, you don’t have to feel locked into your past decision.
• The Valley is more talkative… Don’t worry, we didn’t increase Donald’s tantrums. All characters have gained additional daily discussion topics.

Top Bugfixes and improvements

• Kristoff’s stall has received a slight overhaul. In previous updates, we made some changes to his stall, with a goal of striking a balance between making the shop more interesting and enticing (i.e. adding iron ingots), and ensuring that gathering rare materials isn’t made trivial (i.e. adding a daily limit). We heard your feedback – especially about the change to coal – and kept iterating. As a result, we’ve tweaked the settings a little and brought back something you loved. The daily buy limit has been removed for coal and we’ve increased the buy limit for everything else at the stall (from 3-5 to 10-20).
• Miracle Growth Elixir, Miracle Pickaxe Polish, Miracle Shovel Varnish, Miracle Fishing Bait (and their Even More Miraculous alternatives) have had their efficiency increased and the resources required to craft them reduced.
