Are the Disney Dreamlight Valley updates free?
As you may have heard, Disney Dreamlight Valley's free to play plans are no longer on the cards, but Gameloft has confirmed that the base game will continue to get free updates including new characters, realms, and more.
However, you do have to pay for the different expansions separately. These are large-scale add-ons that introduce entire new maps with their own unique biomes, new tools, fresh faces, as well as different food, recipes, animals, and more.
Luckily, if you want to try out the expansions for yourself but don't want to splash that cash, you can play the Disney Dreamlight Valley: Arcade Edition for free if you have an Apple Arcade subscription. The Arcade Edition comes complete with the expansions, as well as all past and future content updates - the only things you miss out on are the Star Paths and the premium shop.
What are the Disney Dreamlight Valley expansions?
So far, Disney Dreamlight Valley has three different expansions that have arrived periodically since the game's release. Like DLC expansions in other games, they offer new maps, items, characters, and mechanics for you to explore, as well plenty of extra space to decorate to your liking.
Here are all of the DDV expansions so far:
- A Rift in Time - a major expansion pass that introduces Eternity Isle, where you must thwart Jafar's plans to interfere with time. This expansion comes complete with a new hourglass tool, villagers EVE, Wall-E, Rapunzel, Gaston, and Jafar, plus the Scramblecoin board game
- Storybook Vale - a major expansion pass that introduces the new, fairytale-inspired Storybook Vale, where you must use the new royal net tool to capture story snippets. Includes villagers Merida, Flynn Rider, Hades, and Maleficent
- Wishblossom Ranch - a major expansion that adds the fresh Wishblossom Ranch area, including stables and the ability to ride horses, as well as a story where you help Snow White reverse a mysterious "decay" that has taken over the land. Includes villagers Snow White, Tinker Bell, Cruella de Vil, and Tigger
- Honeyglow Woods - a smaller adventure pack that introduces a 100-Acre Wood-inspired biome that you can access via a tree portal. It introduces the new beekeeping and honey gathering mechanics, and includes villagers Winnie the Pooh, Eeyore, and Piglet
The first three expansion came out roughly one year apart, which the smaller Honeyglow Woods expansion pass came out less than a year after Wishblossom Ranch. We'll be sure to update this guide when we learn about future expansions and adventure packs!
