Disney Dreamlight Valley Gameplay: What to do?
Disney Dreamlight Valley is an adventure, simulation and farming game all in one. You can create the character of your dreams and will have to bring the Disney/Pixar world back to life that has succumbed to nothingness. It will be necessary to restore, clean and bring back the magic so that the city once again welcomes famous animated characters such as Buzz Lightyear, Moana and Wall.E. To carry out this mission, you will have to complete a main quest but also side quests with each of the inhabitants. It will also be necessary to collect many resources by mining, fishing, cultivating, making objects and decorating the houses.
If this new Disney game is often compared to Animal Crossing New Horizons, it is because different activities from Nintendo’s flagship title are also present there. In addition to its undeniable chill side, you can of course fish many creatures in the waters of the map, decorate your house, befriend your neighbors by giving them gifts and completing quests, harvest resources for make objects or even cook good meals. We could also compare it to a farming game like My Time at Portia for example since many gameplay aspects are similar such as how to cook, plant flowers and ingredients, progress in each discipline and earn unique rewards etc. .
Character progression
Disney Dreamlight Valley will offer microtransactions (using real money) to purchase cosmetics only. In order to progress in the game, you will therefore have to do it simply by completing missions and improving your skill levels (fishing, gardening, mining, etc.). Overall progression is achieved by successfully completing the main quest (story) and the side quests offered by the characters. This will allow you to unlock new tools, decorations, new crafting plans and cooking recipes, in order to constantly improve your Disney/Pixar town.
Many iconic places are also worth visiting in addition to the main village, such as the beaches of Moiana, the swamp of the Princess and the Frog, Rapunzel’s tower, the seabed of the Little Mermaid, the ice palace of The Queen of Snows or even the savannah of the Lion King.
Create your character in advance for free!
If you can’t wait to play Disney Dreamlight Valley before September 6, a free demo is currently available. It does not allow you to progress in the story but to create one or more characters with the many clothes and hairstyles of the customization editor. You can download it directly from Steam, Epic Games Store or on your Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5 or Xbox console.
