Those looking to get into the game as soon as possible and get a head start on all the new features should know that the Disney Dreamlight Valley update will release February 16 at 9 AM EST; the announcement was made February 15 on the game's official Twitter account.

The update's patch notes were released only a few hours prior, but they still steered up a lot of conversation in the community; they confirmed many of the rumors and other features that had been teased before.

The main story is going to expand - it seems that something is going on in Frosted Heights; those that haven't gotten around to unlocking every biome should definitely work towards getting into Frosted Heights, just beyond Forest of Valor. Two new characters are also being added, so gamers will have to build new friendships and complete all sorts of quests.

Players should also prepare themselves for the number of new items they'll be able to unlock. A Premium Shop is being added to the game; it'll only work with Moonstones, but it'll have exclusive items that can't be found at Scrooge McDuck's shop. On top of that, a new Star Path is going live as soon as the update is out, and those that acquire it can unlock pages upon pages of new cosmetic items. The Star Path is themed around Disney's 100th anniversary, so it will certainly be great and riddled with nostalgia.

Disney Dreamlight Valley is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
