There are a ton of changes and new things in the latest Disney Dreamlight Valley update, and we're still trying to find all of them — so we can dump them in this massive list, just for you!
Just bear with us while we discover things for ourselves. This list is a work-in-progress, and a lot of stuff is time-gated in the game, so we haven't seen some things yet!
If you want to read about bug fixes, check out the patch notes here — we won't be covering those because they're booooring.
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, let's go!
