All Disney Dreamlight Valley DreamSnaps patch notes

Although many Disney Dreamlight Valley players are likely still busy exploring all of the content the massive “The Remembering” update brought to the valley, Gameloft is already back with another update for players to enjoy.

The “DreamSnaps Update” will feature the arrival of a massive new gameplay mechanic, a Disney princess, and much more players can learn about through the update’s patch notes.

Full DreamSnaps Disney Dreamlight Valley patch notes

Based on my experience with all of the updates that have been released since Disney Dreamlight Valley first launched in its early access state back on Sept. 6, 2022, it seems like players can generally expect every other update to be a massive one while the one in between will be much smaller in comparison. Since the “DreamSnaps Update” is following the colossal “The Remembering” update, it is a much smaller expansion but does still promise some exciting content for players to explore.

The sixth content update will mostly focus on the debut of DreamSnaps, which is Disney Dreamlight Valley’s first multiplayer feature. Each week, players will be presented with a different challenge to tackle and will be able to earn Moonstones just for competing but may also earn more Moonstones plus other rewards by voting on the player’s submissions and based on how they score in the challenge.

This new gameplay feature will give players a task to tackle each week, which will help ensure players always have something to do even if they’ve already completed all other available content. Players won’t know exactly how this feature works until the update launches, but it seems to be very creativity- and community-centric based on what Gameloft has shared about it so far.

The DreamSnaps expansion is the core feature in the summer update, but players will also get to recruit a sweet Disney princess as Vanellope von Schweetz from Wreck-It Ralph races into the valley. With her arrival, players will get new friendship quests associated with her and various new items like her candy house and candy car.

Outside of the addition of DreamSnaps and Vanellope, this update mostly has small gameplay edits and bug fixes. Gameloft shared all of the patch notes in a blog highlighting everything that will be added and changed in the July 19 update.

New content and improvements

• “Flex your creativity and compete in weekly, community-wide photo challenges with DreamSnaps. Each week, earn a variety of prizes for participating, including Moonstones, furniture, and clothing items.
  • Please note: Touch of Magic Clothing and Furniture are not compatible with DreamSnaps and cannot be included in submissions in order to keep the feature a fun environment for all players.

• Keep up with Vanellope with more efficient hovering. The energy drain when hovering has been reduced by 80 percent, giving players more bang for their energy buck.

• General stability has been improved on Nintendo Switch. The dev team will continue to explore further means of optimization for future updates.
