The newest free update for Disney Dreamlight Valley is now live. It takes players back to an old favorite realm and introduces two new friends to join the Valley. This update, called “Return to Beast’s Castle,” features Lumiere and Cogsworth from Beauty and the Beast, who can now become permanent residents of the Valley.
To bring Lumiere and Cogsworth into your game, you’ll need to follow a few steps. First, start the “The Haunting of the Beast’s Castle” questline by meeting certain requirements. Make sure you have the Beauty and the Beast Realm unlocked in Dreamlight Castle, which costs 12,500 Dreamlight, and that both Belle and Beast are unlocked.
Once you meet these criteria, a letter from Beast titled “My friends at the castle” will appear in your mail. This begins the quest to bring Lumiere and Cogsworth to the Valley.
Lumiere and Cogsworth share one joint quest, much like Timon and Pumbaa. A strange dark presence is affecting the castle, and they need your help figuring out what it is.
To complete their quest, called “The Haunting of the Beast’s Castle,” you’ll need to follow several steps, such as gathering fire ingredients, catching a flying painting, and helping Lumiere and Cogsworth resolve the spooky issue. During the quest, you’ll be asked whether you believe in ghosts—your answer influences some dialogue but doesn’t change the overall story.
After resolving the haunting, you’ll help Cogsworth restore the castle’s garden, then help Lumiere with preparing a feast by collecting ingredients and crafting a meal. The final part involves decorating the castle for a masquerade ball, using items like a mask and castle detritus.
When all tasks are finished, Lumiere will stay with you in the Valley. To bring Cogsworth, you’ll need to visit Beast’s castle for a quick reunion and deliver a letter from Beast requesting Cogsworth join you. Once he arrives, both characters can be seen hanging out at Scrooge’s store.
In addition to friendship quests, Lumiere and Cogsworth have their own storylines to progress through levels. Increasing their friendship levels unlocks special rewards, including beautiful outfits inspired by Beauty and the Beast.
Fans have been wishing for these characters’ arrival, and now they are here, ready to help restore peace to the Valley. Follow the guide above to unlock them, complete their quests, and enjoy the rewards and personalities they bring.
