The Dapper Delights free base game update is centered around the arrival of Tiana from The Princess and the Frog. She comes with lots of new quests to complete for rewards plus her famous Tiana’s Palace restaurant and a food stand that sells already-cooked meals you can purchase.

Although Tiana is the star of the show, this update also features a new 1920s-themed Star Path event to work on, as well as many base game improvements like a search bar for clothing, outfit presets, and more. There’s a lot to look forward to with this one, so it’s certainly worth jumping in as soon as you can.

If you have A Rift in Time, the final chapter is called Treasures of Time and centers around putting a stop to Jafar’s schemes once and for all by entering the palace of Agrabah. Once you do, he’ll officially join your valley as a villager, making him the fifth character exclusively unlockable through this DLC.
