Okay, so, here’s the thing about Disney Dreamlight Valley—it’s been doing its own thing with character additions, sticking with Disney and Pixar stuff since forever, well, since 2022. But now? They’re throwing Star Wars into the mix. Yep, it’s about time, right? It’s like a big fan service moment everyone saw coming. Or maybe dreaded. Depends on who you ask. The Wonderland Whimsy Update, which popped up on April 23, is kind of hinting at all this. Not just hints actually—it’s pretty much screaming it with Star Wars stuff hitting the Premium Shop.
It’s kinda wild though. Before, they mostly pulled from Disney Channel Originals and theme park vibes. But Star Wars? Yeah, people have been buzzing about this forever. But hey, not everyone’s on board with it. Purists, probably.
So what’s new? They’ve got Jedi robes, a lightsaber (complete with a photo pose because, of course), and an R2-D2 Companion—adorable, right? But that’s just the start. There’s also a whole fancy Naboo Villa Bundle (that name totally makes you feel posh just saying it). It’s got, like, wallpaper, flooring, and more furniture than I have in my actual house. And while there’s no news on characters yet, everyone’s reading the signs. More Star Wars stuff is bound to drop.
Now, why Star Wars fits into this world of Dreamlight is kinda fascinating. It’s all about nostalgia—fancy word for good old childhood memories. The game throws you into a world where the Night Thorns (that’s some Disney level evilness) make everyone forget stuff. Deep, right? So, you gotta save the Valley, rescue memories, yada yada. Turns out The Forgotten, the game’s big bad, is just a shadowy version of yourself. Mind twist!
Star Wars being in here makes total sense because, let’s face it, it’s nostalgia gold. Everyone’s got their favorite Star Wars memory—pops right up at the mention. And while the MCU is cool and all, it’s kinda the new kid on the block compared to Star Wars. Marvel did its thing for ages, sure, but the movie magic is Star Wars’ domain in terms of nostalgia. This way, Star Wars in the game’s lore? Perfect match. Plus, you can hope for some MCU clothes, maybe? Who knows what they’ll dream up next.
And, um, guess that’s all folks. Until the next big update rolls out or something.
