An Overview of The Storybook Vale
After the excitement of the A Rift in Time expansion last year, the new addition transports players to a magical yet chaotic realm. Stolen by the iconic sorceress Maleficent and the trickster Hades, the Storybook Vale once hung in the skies above Dreamlight Valley, housing every cherished story. However, as the duo squabbled amongst themselves, the Vale fell into turmoil, necessitating a brave adventurer—or many—to restore harmony.
In this immersive expansion, players will embark on a quest directed by the Lorekeeper, an enchanted book that once held the Vale’s magic together. As they navigate through the beautifully crafted landscapes across three distinct biomes, players will regain access to scattered pages filled with adventure and lore.
The Three Biomes of Enchantment
This expansion is divided into three stunning biomes:
- The Bind: A manifestation of “dark academia,” with an inviting cool, autumnal ambience perfect for exploration.
- Mythtopia: Inspired by Greco-Roman culture, this biome features its very own Mount Olympus, a testament to age-old mythologies.
- Everafter: A blend of dark, enchanted mushroom forests and windswept moors, drawing inspiration from Scottish and Scandinavian folklore.
These beautifully rendered zones pave the way for players to encounter new villagers and collect rare items while unraveling the tales woven into the fabric of their surroundings.

New Villagers and Tasks Await
The expansion introduces new characters for players to interact with, including beloved figures like Merida from Brave, Hercules’ Hades, and Flynn from Tangled. Across these biomes, players will meet these charming characters head-on and engage with them in unique quests that offer depth to the gameplay.
As they dive into The Storybook Vale, players can look forward to collecting exciting new items and recipes. These include the opportunity to fish for koi or gather ambrosia, adding layers to their in-game experience with each character interaction.
Notably, players will also meet enchanting animal companions, such as mini dragons and winged horses, adding an element of whimsy and partnership to their journeys.
Unique Quests that Test Skill and Wit
One of the exciting features of this expansion is the introduction of Trials—special quests inspired by well-loved fairy tales and ancient myths. The exploration of these Trials utilizes both traditional and new tools, broadening the horizons of gameplay mechanics. Among these tools is the Royal Net, an instrument necessary for capturing the Lorekeeper’s scattered pages, which have come to life as whimsical origami creatures known as Snippets. As players collect these Snippets, they are tasked with piecing together jigsaw-like tapestries, igniting a creative approach to storytelling within the game.
