The studio behind unexpectedly decent Mickey Mouse life simDisney Dreamlight Valleyare venturing into another fantasy land where anthropomorphic animals adventure with human chums, the Forgotten Realms setting of Dungeons & Dungeons. Today Gameloft announced they’re making a D&D game offering a “hybrid of survival, life simulation and action RPG”. They don’t have much more to share about the game, not even a name, so presumably it won’t be out for some time. Whatever it might be, it’s headed to PC and consoles.
“The game, set in the mythical Forgotten Realms within the Dungeons & Dragons universe, will bring unique cooperative gameplay built around an innovative hybrid of survival, life simulation and action RPG. Players can expect an adventure where the rich lore of this legendary franchise meets real-time survival in a unique campaign of resilience, camaraderie, and danger at nearly every turn.”
Presumably that means something a little more taxing than jaunting about doing paintings of fungus and moss for Drizzt Do’Urden so you become bezzies and he gives you new wallpaper for your hovel.
I always associated the Gameloft name with middling mobile games so I was quite surprised when loads of folks were well into Disney Dreamlight Valley. Back in 2022, Steve Hogarty said in ourDisney Dreamlight Valley early access reviewthat it was “a top-marksAnimal Crossingrip-off that will make fans of too-big mice irreversibly giddy.” We’ve also called it one of thebest games like Stardew Valley, and I know the launch version wasone of Kiera’s favourite games of last year.
