Disney Dreamlight Valley DreamSnaps Update – Release date, patch notes, & more

Disney Dreamlight Valley already hyped us up with their 2023 Roadmap, listing out all the exciting updates and content coming through 2023. Thanks to the roadmap, we knew we would see Vanellope and a new way to earn Moonstone coming to the Valley this summer, but we will see that update hit sooner than expected! Take a look at the release date and everything coming with this update below.

When does Disney Dreamlight Valley DreamSnaps update release?

Disney Dreamlight Valley on Twitter has officially announced the next upcoming update is coming on July 19, 2023, at 9am ET! This update will feature the new character, Vanellope, and a new way to earn Moonstones every week.

What are Disney Dreamlight Valley DreamSnaps?

DreamSnaps is a way we can earn Moonstones without having to open chests or purchase them with real money. Since Moonstones are important to have to purchase more valuable items like skins, houses, and other special items in the Premium Shop, it would be great to be able to earn it regularly, and with this update, we will.

According to the Disney Dreamlight Valley Twitter, this will be an in-game feature where you can submit photos into a weekly challenge, vote on your favorites, and then earn Moonstones for participating and winning. You'll be able to win a minimum of 300 Moonstones depending on your score and always earn 50 just by voting on your favorites. There will be a new challenge each week requiring a different themed photo that could have to do with decor, outfits, characters, and more.
