Here's everything we know is included in this update. One new character – Pocahontas arrives in this update. She doesn't seem to have an unlockable Realm with her, and instead can be found by venturing to a new location nearby the island, similar to the process of unlocking Ariel with Ariel's boat by Skull Rock. New Companions – Some adorable critters from Pocahontas are joining the valley. First up is Meeko, who will be unlockable throughout additional missions you can tackle, likely similar to the steps you have to take to unlock Pluto. Percy is also arriving, but he'll only be obtainable through the Premium Shop. New Star Path event – The Elements of Nature Star Path arrives in this update, bringing a vast new collection of rewards you can earn. Some of the items that have been teased include a lava outfit, a pink fairy dress, a volcano, a flower crown Dream Style for Nala, a giant lotus flower house, and a Mossy Sea Turtle Companion. Olaf's Grand Exhibition – An exciting new building opens up, which is Olaf's Grand Exhibition. This structure is basically DDV's own version of a museum, which means you can collect items from around the village and place them on display here to highlight your progress. New story quests – A new adventure begins in the valley with a fresh adventure packed with "mischief and mayhem." It's unclear exactly what this means, but new quests have been teased, starting with investigating a strange new door in the Dream Castle and a "mystifying figure" lurking around. New and rerun events – A new Spring Floating Festival event, similar in style to The Winter Floating Festival and The Haunted Floating Festival, debuts in this update. It'll be available to play from April 29 to May 19. The Treasure Hunt event is also back for another run from May 27 to June 9. There's still a bit of time before the Whispers of the Wind update arrives, so be sure to wrap up anything you haven't completed yet. Some big events will be ending around the time the next update arrives, like the Paw-fect Romance Star Path and the Eggstravaganza event.
