Disney Dreamlight Valley Update: Sew Delightful Brings New Floating Islands and More

This week, the highly anticipated Sew Delightful update for Disney Dreamlight Valley arrives, bringing with it a host of exciting new features, including the ability to explore new floating islands. Revealed during the October Disney Dreamlight Valley showcase stream, these new areas have been shrouded in mystery, but the developers have now lifted the veil, sharing more information about how they'll work and what players can expect.

Getting Started with the Floating Islands

To access these new floating areas, players must first complete the main story quest "What's Left Behind," tied to Fairy Godmother. This quest has been available for some time now, so most long-time players should have no issues getting started with the floating islands on day one. Once completed, players will discover a new quest connected to Merlin called "Islands in the Sky." During this quest, Merlin reveals that he's been researching ways to connect the Wishing Wells in the Valley to those on the floating islands. Players will then be able to fast travel to floating islands using the Wells or the game's menu.

New Floating Islands and Decorating Options

The first island unlocked will be based on the Plaza, and then players will have to use Dreamlight to unlock the three additional islands: Forest Island, Frosted Island, and Sunlit Island. Each will cost 15,000 Dreamlight. The developers have teased that they may add more floating islands in future updates. Each of the new floating islands is meant to act as an extension of the current biomes, giving players additional locations to move in some of the characters, and decorate to their heart's content. With "roughly 130×130 squares of decorating space," players will have ample room to show off their creativity.

Sew Delightful Update: What to Expect

Launching on December 4th, the Sew Delightful update is the latest of Disney Dreamlight Valley's free updates. The update's title is a reference to Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas, who will be making her debut in the game this week. Players will have to work with Jack Skellington to help her arrive in the Valley, and once they've accomplished that, Sally will have her own quests to complete, along with new rewards to unlock. The new update will also see the arrival of a new Star Path, which will feature a number of winter-themed rewards.
