How to unlock Peter Pan in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Peter Pan has finally arrived inDisney Dreamlight Valleyas part of theMysteries of Skull Rock update, bringing childlike glee to the adventure. However, as it goes with most new DDV additions, unlocking him isn’t easy.
Peter Pan is part ofSkull Rock, which has remained a mystery for years. After the main quest was completed, a shift occurred just off Dazzle Beach, but aside from that, we didn’t know what was inside, or rather, who was inside.
Now, as part of theMysteries of Skull Rock update, we know thenew character, Peter Pan, lies in wait for us. So, if you’re looking to unlock him, here’s exactly how to do it.
How to unlock Peter Pan
A Forgotten Name
Once you’ve completed the Mysteries of Skull Rock update, you’ll need to wait until the A Forgotten Name quest comes up. We had towait 45 minutes for the quest to arrive, so you’ll have to be a little patient.
Once it pops up, you’ll be instructed tospeak toThe Forgotten, who will reveal they found a mysterious feather by Skull Rock. Naturally, the two of you investigate.
Head over to Skull Rock and speak to The Forgotten there. You’ll both reminisce on better, freer times as a child before they ask you to give them a real name.
Simply choose from one of the options or select a custom name. When you do, they’ll be added to your Valley as an official villager, marking the start of the next quest.

Shadows On The Wall
The next quest is Shadows On The Wall, which will have you heading into Skull Rock with The Forgotten (we’ll call them that for now because no one will know who Suzie is!). So, enter the new space and take in the beautiful boat.
You’ll be told to explore Skull Rock, which is a not-so-subtle hint to check out the location for chests, hidden items, and the occasional piece of gem or gold coins. Once you’re satisfied, head over to The Forgotten and speak to them.
Find the broken lanterns
They’ll explain that they saw a few Pixie Dust Orbs, which act as lights filled with Pixie Dust and Dreamlight. If you’ve found the lantern, then it’ll activate, and you’ll need to find the others. If not, you’ll be instructed to search more to find three broken lanterns to house the Pixie Dust Orbs.
The first is found near where you speak to The Forgotten for the second time, by the Winches.Head to the far left corner facing The Forgotten and dig up the shining moundfor the first Lantern.
Then,head down to the ship and grab your Fishing Rod. The other two lanterns are on either side of the dockand need to be fished up.
Fix the Lanterns
When you have all three, you’ll need the following ingredients to fix the Lanterns:
As we mentioned above, you’llfind the lanterns in Skull Rock. TheGold Ingots are mined at mining nodes in Sunlit Plateau, Frosted Heights, and Forgotten Lands. It’sfive Gold Nuggets per Ingot, so you’ll need15 Gold Nuggets and three Coal.
Glassis crafted usingSand, which isdug up in Dazzle Beach. You’ll need45 Sand and 18 Coalto make nine Glass. Lastly,Vitalys Crystals are mined in the Vitalys Mine in the Sunlit Plateau.
Find and catch the Pixie Dust Orbs
Next, you’ll need to catch the three Orbs. We found them in the following locations:
With that, head to a crafting table and go to Functional Items. Then craft the three Pixie Dust Lanterns.
Next, head back to Skull Rock and place them on all three Winches. The Winches will be coming out of the ground near The Forgotten.
Catch the Shadow
When you’ve created all the Winches, you’ll need to line up all three in one place to catch the Shadow. For this, aim them all at the longer wall on the right, when looking at The Forgotten.
When they’re pointed out, you can introduce yourself to the Shadow, who will try and show you something. Move one of the lights to free him and aim them at the Winch on the wall behind where you spoke to the Shadow. You only need two lights on it, as a third will trap him.
Once you’ve done this, speak to the three Jade Skulls and solve the three riddles using the following answers:
With that, you’ll be able to turn the winch and continue onto the next quest.
A Ship of Gold
Next, follow the Shadow and The Forgotten through the gate and speak to The Forgotten. You’ll need tolook for another Winch, which is found buried in a rock by the barrel to your right. Use your pickaxe and break the rock to reveal a Pixie Dust Orb, some Pixie Dust, and the winch.
Follow the Pixie Dust Orb
You’ll need tofollow the Pixie Dust Orb around Skull Rock, collecting all the Pixie Dust it drops. Follow it as it glides anduse your pickaxe on every large rock you come across. Some blend in well with the wall, so keep your pickaxe equipped.
Make the ship fly
Once you’ve collected allsix Pixie Dusts and the Pixie Dust Orb, which can be captured at the end of the task, you’ll need to make something fly.
This is the large Pirate Ship situated in the middle of Skull Rock. Simply interact with it,add in the six Pixie Dust,and watch it fly. You’ll need to head up there and walk across the boat to speak to The Forgotten again.
Solve the barrel puzzle
They’ll explain that these barrels are pretty mysterious and look to be part of a puzzle. You need to match the symbols to one another. Each pair is on opposite sides to each other, so it’ll be easy to make them face the correct answer.
The answers have been listed below:
Simply line these up to face each other, and the puzzle will be solved.
As a reward, you’llreceive the Captain’s key from the barrel behind The Forgotten. Pick it up andhead down to the Captain’s Cabin on the bottom floor of the ship.
Once inside, you’llsee the Winch. Grab this andhead back to where you picked up the key. There will be a slot for you to place the Winch down and open up the next section, therefore completing this current quest.
The Music’s On the Walls
For the final quest to unlock Peter Pan, follow The Forgotten and the Shadow to the next location in Skull Rock. What will appear is a series of musical notes and a book. Once you speak to The Forgotten, a Glowing Musical Note will break free and begin flying away.Chase after it and interact to catch the pesky note.
If you lose sight of the note,head to the left after speaking to the Forgotten, it’ll go down the ramp and through the door.Left behind is a memory depicting Peter Pan flying with notesaround him.
Next, head back to The Forgotten andpick up the silver key just to the left of them. Head back tothe Captain’s Cabin and unlock the chest inside.
What comes out is another memory in the form of a letter. This letter is a treasure map, with an X on Ariel’s Island. Speak to The Forgotten, and they’ll explain that you need to find this buried treasure and the Musical Notes.
Find the missing Glowing Musical Notes
The clue you get for the Notes’ location is “the Forgotten Lands, the Frosted Heights, Dazzle Beach, and the Dream Castle.” Though if you’d rather, the answers they’re below.
You can find the five extra notes in the following locations:
As for the buried treasure, you’ll need totake the boat by Skull Rock to Ariel’s island. It’s juston the curve. Dig up the treasure, and that task will be complete.
Move the notes
Then, head back to The Forgotten and the Musical Notes. You’ll need tointeract with the individual buttons to move the notes up.verify they align with the notes in the book, which is shown in the image below.
Annoyingly, the Shadow will sabotage this, so you’ll need tocraft one more Lanternin the crafting table on the rightandplace it on the Winch. Then,move them both into the middle to trap him.
Lastly, move the notes back to their rightful positions.
With that, Peter Pan will appear and allow you to speak to him. He’s a little cautious since you’re an adult, so he will challenge you to a game of hide-and-seek.
Find Peter Pan
You’re looking fordark, scary spots when searching for Peter Pan. It’s up to you whether you want to follow the Pixie Dust or ask the villagers where he might be. But, if you prefer to just unlock him, then you’ll find him in the following location:
Head into the portal in the Plaza and enter the Dark Castle. Go up as much as possible, and you’ll find plenty of Pixie dust and eventually Peter Pan himself.
With that, he’ll agree to join your Valley. So,place down his home, build it for 20,000 Star Coins, and he’ll be invited to your Valley.

The first step is having a word with Minnie and check her house for Peter Pan’s shadow.

Five star Entrée recipes
Any 5-star Entrée will do, but here are a few ideas:
Once you’re done cooking, bring it back to him. Unforunately, this refined dish won’t be on par with Peter’s taste. After consulting with Sully and Remy, they suggest you make French Fries and a Peanut Butter Sandwitch.

Bring these meals back to Peter Pan; he’ll be slightly more pleased with these. The next step is to help him clean his Trash Piles.
You’ll eventually run into an Old Swing. Show it to Peter to evoke a memory of three locations, this is where he lost some of his treasures.

For Peter Pan’s third Friendship Quest, we’ll be cooking nine pies, then cleaning a bunch of houses, and running auditions for the next Lost Boys.

When you’re done with all this cooking, bring the pies to Peter. He unfortunately won’t just be eating them like a good boy, but will use them to pie Donald, Merlin, and Scar’s houses… which you’ll have to clean up.
All this cleaning up is followed by a heart of heart with Peter, in which he reveals he’s missing his Lost Boys. To help him find interested candidates, you’ll have to craft some signs.

Friendship Quest 4: The Valley Pirates
For Peter Pan’s fourth Friendship Quest, we’ll be facing the most fearsome evil pirate: Eric the Meek.
Where is Eric the Meek?
Eric is hiding in the Secret Chamber in the Frosted Heights. Head inside, mine the ice clumps blocking the way, and have a word with him. He’ll then ask that you gather 5 Minerals and 10 Gold Nuggets to bribe the First Mate.
Visit the Dreamscape
Next, head to the Forgotten Lands and had inside the treehouse to enter the Dreamscape. In here, you’ll find the Fairy Godmother, who’ll take your bribe and wave you goodbye, perhaps with a bit too much kindness.
The final scene of this quest takes place where this whole adventure started: in Skull Rock.
Get Past Skull Rock’s pirate guard
The first guard you’ll have to bypass is Ariel. Funnily enough, it’s harder to reach her than to bypass her. In any case, grab the pickaxe and destroy the rocks blocking the way and have a word with her. Then, the real challenge begins.
Avoid being detected by the lanterns
After getting the key and opening the treasure, head outside of Skull Rock and place it on the Valley to take a celebratory selfie with the team.
