It’s out “this fall”
ADisney Dreamlight ValleyToy Story update is on the way, and now we have a full-length trailer to see what that actually entails.
Like most character-based things inDreamlight, it’ll feature new quests (with Woody and Buzz), as well as an additional space to roam around in, and new items. Based on the trailer you’ll enter the new space similar to the other lands in the game (likeMoana): through a special door in the castle. This time, theToy Storyrealm is symbolized by a drawing of analienhead.
Disney Dreamlight Valleykind of snuck up on me. The Early Access release model + the monetization scheme + Gameloft being involved kept me wary, butafter a few positive hands-on impressions, I decided to give it a shot. It’s not bad! There is some free-to-play nonsense baked in, but there’s a lot you can do, especially upfront, in the current build. It’s a different take on the farming/simulation genre in many ways, as it’s heavily tied to quests and key characters, which makes sense for an IP factory like Disney.
In any case, there’s time to shore up some gameplay-related concerns before it launches next year, but I’m not hopeful about the monetization element — especially post-launch.
