Dreams Now Allows Some User-Created Content to be Used Outside of the Game

In April, Media Molecule announced that it will be ending support for its creation toolset-slash-game Dreams in September, with the developer looking to shift focus to its next game. Ahead of Dream’s closure, the developer has now updated the game’s terms of use to allow players to take their Dreams creations outside of the game and use them however you want- though not all creations.

Media Molecule has announced that under the new terms of use, players will now be able to export any music, animation, films, and art created they’ve created in Dreams and use it for either personal or commercial purposes outside of the game. A new update will have to be downloaded, and players will be asked to go through and agree to the new terms of use after logging into the game again.

Meanwhile, patch notes for the aforementioned new update have also been revealed, bringing a number of fixes and tweeks. You can check them out below.

Support for Dreams will be ending on September 1, though players will still be able to play, create, and share in the game past that date. Media Molecule has also confirmed that its next project won’t be a Dreams sequel- read more on that through here.

PATCH NOTES:

• Fixed several issues related to Playlist performance in-game.
• Fixed an issue where only 8 scoreboards were being presented per creation, and scores were not being posted as expected.
• Made improvements to search result speed and performance, both in-situ and while in DreamShaping.

• Updated wording to be more informative when deleting local versions of Collections and Dreams.

• Several photo management issue fixes.
