Disney Dreamlight Valley: DreamSnaps patch notes – Vanellope, weekly challenges, & more

Disney Dreamlight Valley has published the full patch notes for the DreamSnaps update – scheduled to release on July 19, 2023, at 9 AM ET.

The sandbox title launched its fifth major update – The Remembering – on June 7, 2023. The Remembering added new features for players to enjoy, such as dressable mannequins and customizable furniture.

Update 5 also introduced Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother as a villager and continued the game’s main storyline. Additionally, the game added the Peppermint Tea recipe to its growing collection of available dishes.

Unlike The Remembering, DreamSnaps is not a major update, but it still features new playable content for users to enjoy.
