The Puppy Love update is mostly focused on introducing two fresh faces to the valley, but there are also plenty of other additions releasing with them. Here’s everything we know about this update so far.

Two new characters – The titular characters Lady and the Tramp from the film of the same name are the stars of the Puppy Love update. This one seems to be themed around love between the two characters, likely to tie in Valentine’s Day since it’s shortly after the update launches.
New Realm – A fresh Lady and the Tramp-themed Realm can be opened and explored by players with this update. In this Realm, you’ll find the small town the puppy duo call home, complete with iconic spots from the film like Tony’s Restaurant.
New quests and rewards – There are loads of new quests to tackle and prizes to earn along the way. First, you’ll need to work through a series of missions inside the Lady and the Tramp Realm to recruit both pups to the valley. Once you’ve got them in your village, you can move on to their friendship quests, which help you unlock the many exclusive rewards each character has to offer.
New Star Path event – A new Star Path event, called Paw-fect Romance, is launching with this update. Some of the items you can earn throughout it include Darling outfits from Lady and the Tramp, Dream Styles for Mickey and Minnie, clothes from The Great Mouse Detective, Tony’s Restraunt from Lady and the Tramp, floral furniture, and the Flower Puppy Companion.
New Premium Shop items – The Premium Shop is getting a fresh batch of new goodies you can buy with Moonstones, including a Spring Cherry Blossom set you can use to change your Dream Castle skin, as well as Chez Remy, Scrooge McDuck’s shop, wishing wells, the courtyard in the Plaza, Goofy’s Stalls, and even the Valley Visit station. The shop is also getting a new feature called evolving items, which are assets like tools that slowly upgrade over time as you use them to take on a new appearance.

There’s plenty to get done around the valley while you wait for this update to arrive. If you haven’t yet, you’ll want to work on swiftly finishing the Winter Warmth Star Path, as it’s set to end with the launch of the Puppy Love update. This event has lots of tricky tasks for you to tackle, like digging for special crystals underground, cooking a fairly fancy dinner, and selling snowman building material.
