Good news, dreamers! If you picked up the Early Access of Dreams, you get access to the full version starting February 11.
We’re excited to confirm that Early Access Dreamers will upgrade to the launch version of Dreams ahead of the February 14 launch date.
We’ll be releasing a Creator Patch update on February 11 that gives those players access to all the new content in Dreams from 12pm GMT (4am Pacific time). Following this Creator Patch, players will be able to play and enjoy all the new features coming with the official launch of Dreams!
The team here have been busy bees since Early Access launched and we’re excited to be able to confirm the major changes from February 11:
Content
We’re releasing Art’s Dream!
This feature film length adventure follows former jazz musician Art as he dreams about his life, past and present, and realizes he needs to make amends with his fellow bandmates.
The journey takes him through a series of dream-like situations involving him and a whole cast of wonderful fantasy characters, such as D-Bug, a helpful little robot with an electric personality and Frances, a hammer wielding teddy bear. Will he get his shot at redemption, or will his dreams become nightmares?
New Creator Kits
You’ll also get access to the Art’s Dream creation kits, allowing you to make your own dreams with our noir, sci-fi, and fantasy creations. There are also two new kits to use in DreamShaping and your Homespaces:
- Welcome Home
- Ancient Temple
New Homespace Introduction
You’ll also find a new intro to the homespace area and quite a few new tutorials and how-to videos in the Workshop!
Updated UI
The UI we implemented for DreamSurfing is also a significant update coming to DreamShaping which should make it easier to find content and collections to create with.
Creation
Now, we know our voracious creators in Early Access are dying to know what’s changed in the tools.
- We’ve added better thermometer tools (level analysis and heatmaps), camera bookmarks and a whole new control scheme that uses left and right sticks, not the motion sensor function, for players who prefer that option.
- We’ve also done a lot under the hood – our best guess for how many changes have been made between the start of Early Access and now is… well… 18,000?!
- We’ve deployed bug fixes (much of it based on your feedback, thank you!) and added polish across the game as well as a host of smaller changes.
Thank you for supporting us in Early Access — we can’t wait to welcome you to the new improved Dreamiverse, ahead of schedule, on February 11!

Mm
Is the game going to finally have trophies now too?
According to Media Molecule’s blog post, yes: https://www.mediamolecule.com/blog/article/own_dreams_early_access_upgrade_on_february_11th
PSVR Support?
If I’m not mistaking I believe it had VR support in the beta, so I would assume yes.
@SavagedData
It did not.
Not at launch but eventually
Great news! My daughters and I have been huge fans of Media Molecule since the original Littlebigplanet (playing both Media Molecule’s and the community’s creations daily).
I didn’t create much in the Dreams beta but I really had a lot of fun with the community creations. I look forward to playing the Media Molecule created levels as well as the stuff the community comes up with the full set of tools and of course creating more myself.
I just want everyone to know that I was nominated for Creator of the Year.
P.S. Dreams is cool, don’t worry about when VR or multiplayer is coming! You’ll need to get used to the tools before then anyway, so get the game and enjoy it! Thank you!
I also just want to say that I’m the voice of the sheep in the last pic (Pig Detective Advent Calendar)
Can´t wait 14 february, and is really good, all the fixes for the launch of the game, thanks Mm :D
When I the review embargo up?
I hope Sony pushes this game but it doesn’t seem to be the case. I’m proud to support what I think is the most important game this generation. I just wish Sony would as well.
I kinda wish I picked up the Early Access version.. oh well the full version is almost here now!
Thought there was going to be campaign as well? Now we get a movie instead?
It’s a 2-3 hour campaign.
I think Playstation should address the fact that they have dumped total garbage on Ps Plus for the last 5 months. February is the worst so far!
I think Feb is actually pretty nice.
I think you replied to the wrong post. But I think that this month is a pretty good drop. Happy more people get a good VR game. Bioshock are great games
I need a coach to help me make things in game. I’ll have plenty of time between launch and April to learn the tools!
I want to create something tons of people will love.
This is fantastic news! Thank you, MM!
Wait… The promise was 3 campaigns (one with this jazzy guy, one with a cute robot, one with that hammerbunny) and PSVR support. Instead we get one campaign… and bugfixes… Guys, comeonnn…
Question if you paid for the early access you do not get the dynamic theme then?
This game is amazing! I <3 MM.
