Pixar Films with No Characters or Items in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Despite being the second featurefilm released by Pixar,A Bug’s Lifeisn’t as well remembered today as other early entries in the studio’s history. The same can be said forThe Good Dinosaur, which was released in 2015. The absence of characters from these films inDisney Dreamlight Valleycan likely be attributed to a lack of modern popularity.
In contrast,Onward,Soul, andLucawere all released between 2020-2021 but lack representation for now. Though these films received positive reception and praise from Pixar fans, the lack of profit from these films may explain why Gameloft has yet to add characters from these projects toDisney Dreamlight Valley.
Two new Pixar original projects,ElioandHoppers, are expected to hit theaters in 2025 and 2026 respectively. Though not much is known about each film, promotion for these new movies could be implemented throughcharacter additions inDisney Dreamlight Valley. Gameloft may have a long way to go before all of Pixar’s films have characters in the game, but all these films at the very least deserve to have items inDisney Dreamlight Valley.
