What is the next Dreamlight Valley update? Each new Dreamlight Valley update adds new characters, features, and quests to the life sim. The roster of Dreamlight Valley residents has expanded so much already, and shows no signs of slowing down. Fans on social media have previously requested the likes of Cinderella, Belle, and Stitch, and, now two of those are valley residents, we know Gameloft is listening.
Dreamlight Valley recipes, characters, realms, and more added to the base game regularly, so here's everything we know about the next free Dreamlight Valley update.
Next Dreamlight Valley update release date estimate
The next Dreamlight Valley update release date is likely to fall in June 2025. This is based on the official roap and previous update schedule.
According to the roap, which you can see below, the next update brings new visitors to Skull Rock, and is scheduled for Summer 2025. Given the usual two-month gap between updates, this would lead us to June 2025, following the April release of Alice and The Cheshire Cat. However, the original update frequency was every three months, so we may also have to wait until July.
In the most recent update, Winderland Whimsy, released on April 23, 2025, take a trip to Wonderland and help Alice free animals from the Queen's garden. Rub shoulders with the Cheshire Cat, and make sure nobody loses their heads as you make your escape to your village with a few new guests in tow.
