Disney Dreamlight Valley revealed a fake shop as an April Fools Day joke, but the actual announcement has players speculating what’s next for the cozy life sim.
For the second year in a row, the developers ofDisney Dreamlight Valleyhave used April Fools Day to tease something for the next update. Afterjokingly announcinga new shop called “Olaf’s Snow Sculpture Emporium,” the devs revealed that, while the snowman-centric theming is fake, the building design featured is real.
As the team claimedin a tweet, “We’re not quite sure what this new building is, but stay tuned for more news!”
April Fools! We’ve just gotten word that our previous post wasn’t accurate. We’re not quite sure what this new building is, but stay tuned for more news! ❓✨pic.twitter.com/3QQ7kZNtaO
This, of course, has players speculating what the new building, presumably a new shop, could have in store.
Some eagle-eyed players noticed the flags on the side of the building feature what looks like the Touch of Magic icon used for player-created designs. This has many on both Twitter and Reddit predicting this is a custom clothing shop where you can share designs with the wider community – a feature players have wanted for a very long time.
“The way I’m going to need to visit so many people to get their designs if this turns out to be a touch of magic store,” saidone excited Reddit user.

As mentioned, this isn’t the first time Disney Dreamlight Valley has used April Fools Day to reveal something that’s actually coming to the game. Last year, the devs jokingly announced a new Photo Mode feature that allowed players to pose with lamps, only to reveal they’d actually be able to pose with animal companions. That feature ultimately debuted in thePride of the Valleyupdate later that month.
