Disney Dreamlight Valley has been available for a few days in three paid editions on different platforms including the Nintendo Switch . It is, a priori, a new way of doing things: the game will be available for free in 2023 but for all those who cannot wait, early access allows you to play it now . In summary, you are paying to play a game that is not quite finished and when it is, will be free. Well, to be honest, the game will never really be finished since it is akin to a live service game, i.e. it is intended to constantly receive additional content (like Fortnite, for example.) If you are a fan of the Disney universe, and you are one of the first buyers of the game, know that it has just received its first big update which brings a lot of corrections. Find all the details below.
As a reminder, paid editions of Disney Dreamlight Valley are available from September 6, 2022 . The "free" edition will be available in 2023.
Details of the first patch of Disney Dreamlight Valley - September 15, 2022
Happy Valley Villagers Patch Day!
We are barely a week after the launch of Early Access, and we are happy to share with you the first patch for Disney Dreamlight Valley . We've listened carefully to your feedback shared via social media, Discord, and via Customer Service, and we've addressed many known issues in this patch. Although the patch is being released to all players (please ensure you are connected to the internet to receive it), it may take up to 2 hours to receive it on your device. We recommend that you check back from time to time if you don't see it available yet.
For those who play on multiple devices with cross-save: make sure all platforms you play on have been updated before switching devices to avoid any further issues.
Please see the detailed list below of what to expect from today's patch:

Spawn rates and loot tables adjusted for glowing buried items:
