Gameloft has detailed what players can expect from the Disney Dreamlight Valley paid DLC, The Storybook Vale, when it releases later in 2024. Since its release in September 2022, Disney Dreamlight Valley has come a long way. The life-sim has seen a host of paid and free updates added to keep players exploring the vast world of Disney characters.
The Trick or Treat event in Disney Dreamlight Valley runs until October 31, where players create as much candy as possible before handing it out to residents in return for themed goodies. As the event enters its last few days, gamers are wondering what’s next. To this end, Gameloft has announced what players can expect from the Disney life-sim.

Star Wars, Marvel Spin-Offs of Disney Dreamlight Valley Would Have a Big Advantage
With Disney’s many franchises under its umbrella, it only makes sense for their video game adaptations to reach beyond of action-adventure.
The Disney Dreamlight Valley Storybook Vale DLC will be released in two parts, with the first set for November 20. The paid expansion pass will be available for $29.99 and introduces players to the Vale, a new land containing three new biomes, the Bind, Everafter, and Mythopia. Following on from the conclusion of A Rift in Time story arc, gamers are tasked with teaming up with Merida from Pixar’s Brave and Flynn Rider from Disney’s Tangled to save the latest Biomes from Hades with a new item, the Royal Rod.

Your Rating
Success!
Disney Dreamlight Valley is a hybrid between a life-sim and an adventure game rich with quests, exploration, and engaging activities featuring Disney and Pixar friends, both old and new.
Once an idyllic land, Dreamlight Valley was a place where Disney and Pixar characters lived in harmony—until the Forgetting. Night Thorns grew across the land and severed the wonderful memories tied to this magical place. With nowhere else to go, the hopeless inhabitants of Dreamlight Valley retreated behind locked doors in the Dream Castle.Now it’s up to you to discover the stories of this world and bring the magic back to Dreamlight Valley.
Free the Dream Castle from the insidious grip of the Forgetting, and unlock the unique Realms of well-loved Disney and Pixar characters, including great queens and kings such as Anna and Simba. Each Realm contains unique challenges with puzzles to solve in the quest to bring friendship back to the Valley.
You’ll start your adventure in the Valley, but your journey will take you to infinity… and beyond! Explore what lurks in the Forest of Valor and brave the deepest caverns as you take on challenges from iconic Disney and Pixar heroes and villains. Who knows who—or what—you might discover.
