Disney Dreamlight Valley just announced its second DLC featuring 4 new characters, along with a free update coming in December

Disney Dreamlight Valley has showcased a huge amount of new content coming in the next few months, alongside the roadmap for 2025, which hints at some new adventures rolling out next year. Most notably, there'll be a new DLC titled The Storybook Vale, and going off what we've seen in its announcement, I can't wait to get stuck in. 

The expansion will be split across two parts, with the first releasing November 20, and includes three new biomes—The Bind, Ever After, and Mythopia— and four new characters.  Hidden away in The Bind, we'll be able to adventure alongside Merida, while Ever After will let us swashbuckle with the charming rogue Flynn Rider. In Mythopia, though, things take a more villainous turn—Hades is here, and I've been patiently waiting for his debut since I started playing. 

Each biome in the DLC has a unique aesthetic too, which I absolutely love. As shared in the showcase, The Bind will boast a «dark academia» aesthetic with a thick autumnal forest to work our way through. On the other hand, Ever After takes inspiration from Scottish and Scandinavian folklore, featuring a forest of bioluminescent moss and towering mushrooms.

I'm particularly impressed by Mythopia, the third biome doused in gold fields and ancient ruins, and an outstanding rendition of Mount Olympus with an immense level of detail etched into its stone. In fact, all three biomes have a lot more detail than the standard valley which I love to see, like a massive carved pegasus rock to pay homage to Hercules. This level of detail has also made me feel like only using these areas for one character feels like a total waste, so I'm hopeful that more of the Hercules gang come in the future. 

Despite all the details we saw in the showcase, there's one missing piece I'm still excited to learn more about. Maleficent will play a huge role in the story, and she will appear periodically throughout the first part of the DLC, but will have a more significant role in the second half alongside
