According to the patch notes for the DreamSnaps update, Disney Dreamlight Valley players will not be able to use creations from the Touch of Magic tool in the upcoming weekly photography challenges. The Disney Dreamlight Valley DreamSnaps update will be released on July 19. Players will have the opportunity to help Vanellope from Wreck-It Ralph move into the valley and try out the new DreamSnaps features for the weekly competitions.
The update, named after the DreamSnaps feature, is significant for the future of the game. It introduces the first multiplayer element in Disney Dreamlight Valley, allowing gamers to participate and vote for their favorite entries in a community-wide challenge. The roadmap for Disney Dreamlight Valley stated that multiplayer functionality would be available in 2023, so DreamSnaps is a step in the right direction. Hopefully, more features will be included in the September update.
Thanks to social media, the community has already been informed about the upcoming DreamSnaps challenges in the new update. Each week, a fresh challenge will be introduced, and gamers can earn free Moonstones, clothes, and furniture by actively participating or voting. However, the recent DreamSnaps update patch notes mentioned that submissions cannot feature clothes and furniture created with the upgraded Touch of Magic tool.
With the release of The Remembering update, the latest major update for Disney Dreamlight Valley, the Touch of Magic tool underwent an upgrade, now enabling users to customize both furniture and clothing items. This enhancement opens up a world of possibilities as DreamSnaps challenges will now feature themed requirements. Surprisingly, many fans of the game did not express disappointment upon hearing this news. Instead, they expressed concerns that allowing this feature in the competition may create an unfair advantage for those who utilize it more frequently.
The first DreamSnaps challenge will be available shortly, prompting some players to already begin preparing their valleys accordingly. The official Disney Dreamlight Valley Twitter account teased the challenge's theme, hinting that participants will need to capture a photo related to the valley's castle.
Disney Dreamlight Valley is available in early access on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
