Community Challenge Update

[h3]Hey Valley Villagers![/h3]

Last week was a huge week for Disney Dreamlight Valley – not only did we announce Founder’s Pack editions and pre-orders opened on some platforms, but we also launched the Avatar Designer Tool. At 37k selfies and counting, our team has been fueled by the creativity of our fans, and we cannot wait for you to have access to the full game on September 6th.

What’s more is the explosion of wishlists and followers on our social accounts! We are happy to announce that as of today, we are able to unlock two more goals of the Community Challenge:
  • 35k Instagram + Twitter followers collectively: We’ll create and gift an iconic Disney Dreamlight Valley Partner’s Statue to all players.
  • 200k total wishlists across all platforms: We’ll add a variety of Villager Skins so you can dress up your Valley Villagers.


We’ve already shared a sneak peek at the Heroic Armor Clothing that was unlocked with one of our previous goals, and our team will get started on concept art for the Disney Dreamlight Valley Partner’s Statue. We hope that we’ll be able to share this with you soon!

As for our unlocked wishlisting goal, we’re now committed to bringing Villager Skins to Disney Dreamlight Valley – all thanks to you! With our Early Access launch around the corner, it is worth noting once again that we are currently focused on core gameplay features, and these bonus features and items will be included later in the Early Access period and after the game officially launches in free-to-play.

With that, there is only one more goal to unlock! With pre-orders open on some platforms, we will also be including those numbers towards our final wishlisting goal. We are so close to unlocking Multiplayer Valley Visits together – will we be able to unlock this goal by September 6th?

I've already sunk over an hour into Disney Dreamlight Valley's free character creator




Gameloft has released a free, standalone version of the character creator for its take on a casual life sim. Disney Dreamlight Valley isn't out for a couple weeks, but if you make a character in the tool now, Gameloft says you can import them into the game when it releases on September 6. In the meantime, you can take selfies of your avatar...
