Hey Valley Villagers!

It’s that time again… it’s patch notes day! Even better, it’s our first update release of the new year! The team’s been hard at work bringing the magic of Disney and Pixar’s Monsters, Inc. to life in Disney Dreamlight Valley, and so we’re excited to officially welcome you to The Laugh Floor!

From a new Realm and two monstrous new villagers, to improvements within Scrooge McDuck’s Shop and new ways to customize your avatar, there’s a lot to dig into with this update. Not only that, but we have a wide range of bug fixes and optimizations to share, thanks as always to the ever-helpful feedback of this community.

Get ready! Disney Dreamlight Valley’s The Laugh Floor Update arrives on February 28th! Check out all the details below:

Hello everyone!

After a lot of polishing and testing work, I can finally bring you a demo of Fragmented World. In this demo, you'll be able to experience the early stages of the story and get a taste of both the puzzle and narrative aspects, giving you a better idea of what the game is like.

I would greatly appreciate it if you give it a try, and if you have any feedback or comments, it's always welcome. Thank you to everyone who tries it out, and I hope you enjoy it. I'll continue working on the full game, which I hope won't take too long to complete.

Now, let's see if you can overcome your fears and fix that Fragmented World... or not.

Welcome to an out of this world update, Bombers! 🌌 The Gigantic Duck Team is thrilled to announce Bombergrounds Patch 1.6.0, marking the launch of Season 6: Spacelands!

This major update brings a cosmic array of new features, game modes, and balancing improvements that are set to redefine your gaming experience. Let's dive into the stellar changes coming your way!


Prepare for liftoff as we venture into the great unknown. Season 6 introduces the Spacelands theme, explore cosmic battlefields and unlock stellar rewards as you fight your way through the galaxy. It's a season that promises to take your Bombergrounds experience to galactic heights!


Meet Lullaby, the Dreamy Panda, our latest Hyper Character. With Lullaby joining the fray, expect your battles to be filled with dreamy pandemonium and strategic depth. Don't sleep on adding this cuddly yet formidable fighter to your roster!



We've completely remade the League Progress system! Now, you can unlock up to 15 characters as you climb up the ranks. Each victory brings you closer to new allies on the battlefield.

Important: Given that the League Progress is a now brand-new system with different rewards, distinct from the player's overall trophy count, we are resetting the League Progress trophies for all players to zero. This reset allows players the opportunity to earn rewards right from the beginning of the League Progress journey.


We are excited to announce a lower Bomber Pass cost, now just USD 4.99, down from USD 12.99! While also switching the purchase option to real money. This change allows us to pack the Bomber Pass with all those random rewards you love, making each day’s grind full of potential treasures.


Welcome, new Bombers! To get you started on the right foot, we've introduced new tutorial game modes and a tutorial pointer system. The pointer system will help guide new players to things like league progress, upgrading animals, claiming free shop items, etc.. The option to disable pointers is available in the game settings.


Climb the league and earn star quality upgrades to enhance your characters. The higher you go, the stronger you become!


Shop Updates: We're introducing Guaranteed Drops info for Box Opens, making your shopping experience more transparent and rewarding.
Bug Fixes: Many in-game and lobby bugs have been resolved, ensuring a smoother and more stable gaming experience.


We've conducted a comprehensive balancing overhaul. All animals have been re-balanced, re-tuned, and optimized to ensure a fun and exciting gameplay experience for everyone. Expect a new level of competitiveness and strategy on the battlefield!
