Earlier this year, Gameloft teased the next big expansion for the cozy town-builder *Disney Dreamlight Valley*. The first teaser for **Wishblossom Ranch** hinted at some exciting new features, including the introduction of rideable mounts.
On Wednesday, the *Disney Dreamlight Valley 2025 Showcase Stream* offered a detailed look at this upcoming expansion, giving players a clearer idea of what to expect and who they will be able to meet.
### Rideable Mounts: Horses Join the Valley
As revealed in the initial teaser, *Disney Dreamlight Valley: Wishblossom Ranch* introduces horses to the game. Players can befriend these majestic animals just like other Valley residents. Beyond providing an alternative to walking, horses bring new functionality to the game—they can assist with gardening, mining, and cleaning tasks.
To unlock their full potential, players will need to build a strong bond with their horse companions through regular feedings, brushings, and plenty of petting.
### Meet the Horses
Throughout the expansion, players will encounter three special horses:
– **Khan** from *Mulan*
– **Pegasus** from *Hercules*
– **Maximus** from *Tangled*
Additionally, a fourth mount, **Sven** from *Disney’s Frozen*, will be available exclusively with the Deluxe Edition. Gameloft also hinted that more mounts will be introduced in future updates.
### New Storyline & Locations
Wishblossom Ranch’s narrative will take players on a journey through new areas such as the *Wishing Alps*, *Glamor Gulch*, and *Pixie Acres*. Along the way, players will meet beloved characters like **Snow White**, **Tinker Bell**, **Tigger**, and **Cruella De Vil**.
The expansion will also introduce new animal companions and fresh crafting options to enhance gameplay.
### Upcoming Free Content: Winter Ball Event
In addition to the expansion, Gameloft is rolling out free content for all current *Disney Dreamlight Valley* players. The **Winter Ball** event kicks off in November, bringing characters from Disney’s *Cinderella* into the Valley, along with pumpkin crops and a brand-new Dream Team feature that allows players to collaborate with fellow Valley residents.
Both **Cinderella** and the **Fairy Godmother** will arrive with their own friendship quests and storylines. The Winter Ball event will be available for free to all players starting Wednesday, December 10.
### Looking Ahead: 2026 Roadmap
Gameloft also unveiled a fresh content roadmap for 2026. Highlights include:
– Early 2026: Scenes inspired by *Lady and the Tramp*
– Spring 2026: Content themed around *Pocahontas*
– Summer 2026: Adventures exploring the Greek pantheon and the world of *Hercules*
Stay tuned for more updates as *Disney Dreamlight Valley* continues to expand with new stories, characters, and magical experiences.
