Ever sinceDisney boughtStar Wars, the beloved franchise has easily been the company’s most successful sci-fi IP. Over the years, Disney has tended to lean harder into the fantasy realm, but there have been plenty of great original sci-fi stories from the company, as well. One of these sci-fi franchises isTron, and this year presents the perfect time forDisney Dreamlight Valleyto crossover with the underrated Disney IP.
With Tron: Ares Set to Release Later This Year, Disney Dreamlight Valley Has an Exciting Opportunity
Of course,Tronmay not be nearly as successful as a juggernaut likeStar Wars, but the techno-infused franchise boasts a compelling and unique world that sets it apart in the genre. In the first movie, protagonist Kevin Flynn gets warped into a digital world where he has to fight to survive. The first film was released back in 1982, while its follow-up,Tron: Legacy, hit the big screen in 2010. Now thatTron: Aresis marking a comeback for the series,Disney Dreamlight Valleyhas the chance to bring some fun sci-fi imagery to its cozy world.

Disney Dreamlight Valley’s Shop Could Become a Neon-Filled Dream
Tronmay be one of Disney’s smaller franchises, but the series has an undeniably iconic aesthetic. The neon digital world that viewers are introduced to is a bare, but incredibly stylish, universe. Between skin-tight suits and futuristic motorcycles,Troncould bring a dose of edgy flare toDisney Dreamlight Valley’s item shop. Although vehicles can’t be driven inDisney Dreamlight Valley, decorative options like the Elasticycle and Cinderella’s pumpkin carriage exist, so addingTron’s bikes is a possibility. There’s one aspect of aTroncrossover that has the biggest upside of all, though.

Right Now, Tron’s Place in Disney Dreamlight Valley Remains Unclear
There are still several months ahead beforeTron: Arespremieres, so only time will tell ifDisney Dreamlight Valleybrings the sci-fi franchise into the fold.If theStar Warscrossover proves successful, then it’s likely that developer Gameloft will bring players a second round of content, but this potentially risks taking away the game’s special identity.
