It’s no secret that Disney Dreamlight Valley players who enjoy the game on PlayStation consoles have been waiting for cross-save updates. For some time now, questions about PlayStation cross-save have been one of the first fan responses to any and all new updates and announcements from Gameloft. The previous timeline for delivering cross-save by the end of 2024 is fast approaching, and a recent update from the team behind Disney Dreamlight Valley confirms what fans already feared – it’s not going to happen.

Currently, PlayStation is the only platform that doesn’t support Disney Dreamlight Valley cross-saves, making it a bit of a standout in all the wrong ways. Players on other consoles can seamlessly move between PC and their system of choice, and Gameloft had initially hoped to remedy this issue for their PlayStation player base during 2024.
Alas, while cross-platform play for PlayStation gamers was successfully implemented with the summer Dapper Delights update, cross-save remains on the horizon. The distinction here is that cross-platform play simply means that Disney Dreamlight Valley fans on PlayStation will be able to join multiplayer games with their friends using other consoles to play. It does not include the ability to play the same DDV save file across multiple platforms.
Unfortunately, according to a recent update as part of the latest Hotfix announcement, the Disney Dreamlight Valley developers are still “addressing technical challenges” with implementing cross-save for PlayStation gamers. The post goes on to add “this feature remains a priority for our team” and thanks players for their patience. No new timeline for adding cross-save to PlayStation consoles has been announced.
