Disney Dreamlight Valley is heading into its next big chapter with the Wishblossom Ranch expansion, one of the largest DLC updates the game has received so far. This new story arc takes players deep into the Wishblossom Mountains, introduces beloved Disney characters, and adds fully rideable horses for the first time. If you’re preparing to dive in, here’s a complete breakdown of when it arrives and what the expansion brings to your Valley.
Wishblossom Ranch Release Date
Wishblossom Ranch launches on November 19, 2025, continuing Disney Dreamlight Valley’s yearly expansion format. While Gameloft hasn’t confirmed an exact global unlock hour, previous DLCs typically arrived around mid-morning Eastern Time, placing this one in a similar window. We’ll update as soon as the final release schedule is announced.
A New World: Wishblossom Mountains
The expansion opens access to an entirely new realm—the Wishblossom Mountains, a region powered by the magic of heartfelt wishes. Once a thriving horse sanctuary, the area has fallen into decline due to a mysterious force known as the Decay. Your journey revolves around uncovering its cause and helping restore the Ranch to its former brilliance.
The Mountains are split into three beautiful, fully explorable biomes:
- Wishing Alps – A snowy, high-altitude environment with alpine resources.
- Glamour Gulch – A stylish, shimmering canyon biome with unique wildlife.
- Pixie Acres – A whimsical, colourful valley tied to Wishblossom magic.
Each biome supports its own layouts, materials, crafting options, new meals, and collectibles.
New Characters Arriving at the Ranch
Wishblossom Ranch is bringing four iconic Disney characters into the Valley, each tied closely to the story and exploration of the Mountains:
- Snow White – Caretaker of the Ranch after the Decay and a central quest giver.
- Tinker Bell – Essential for understanding Wishblossom magic.
- Cruella de Vil – An antagonist-leaning character with a role in the Mountain’s mysteries.
- Tigger – A cheerful companion who joins various wish-altered areas.
Players will meet these characters as they progress through story quests across each biome.
Rideable Horses and Mount Gameplay
For the first time in Disney Dreamlight Valley, players can ride, care for, and customize horses. This becomes one of the biggest gameplay additions in the expansion.
Horse Features
- Daily care is essential: brushing, feeding, and petting builds Friendship Levels.
- Cosmetic customization allows you to tailor your horse’s appearance and accessories.
- Mount abilities unlock as friendship grows.
- Horses can help you with gardening, mining, and village cleanup, adding utility beyond travel.
Rideable Mounts Available
You’ll befriend well-known Disney steeds:
- Maximus
- Khan
- Pegasus
- Sven (available via the Deluxe Edition)
Each mount comes with unique personality traits and usable gameplay skills.
New Critters in Wishblossom Ranch
The biomes introduce several new critters to befriend:
- Bees in Pixie Acres
- Geese in the Wishing Alps
- Skunks in Glamour Gulch
These creatures can become companions once you discover their favourite foods and earn their trust.
Main Story: Restoring a Fading Ranch
Your adventure centres on reversing the effects of the Decay. Snow White guides you through investigations that lead deep into the Crystal Caverns, a core location in the Wishblossom Mountains. Expect puzzle-oriented sections, new areas unlocked through exploration, and a series of character-driven quests that bring the Ranch back to life.
