Disney Dreamlight Valley Just Released a New Hotfix, Here’s What It Fixes

It’s an exciting time in Disney Dreamlight Valley following the big Wonderland Whimsy update. Players are meeting Alice and friends and dressing up in their Star Wars best. However, like many major updates to live service games, the Wonderland Whimsy update brought along a few unexpected bugs and issues, as well. Thankfully, Disney Dreamlight Valley released a new hotfix update today to resolve some of the biggest problems. The May 6th hotfix for Disney Dreamlight Valley brings a few much-needed fixes for common issues as reported by players since the latest major content update.

Unlike a larger content patch, today’s hotfix doesn’t add new content or characters. Instead, it ensures that what’s already there works as intended. Most of the fixes are focused on the new Wonderland Whimsy update content, but there are a few lingering issues from previous updates that have been addressed, as well. This includes fixes for soft locks when dealing with the Cheshire Cat’s smiles, issues with the Garden Party outfits missing their sparkle effects, and a few lingering glitches from the Aladdin update and Storybook Vale expansion.
