Livestream Transcript
Greetings, kingdomers, and welcome to update 51 – Luca! Best summer ever, woo! My name is of course Amanda, and I am your new community manager. I am also someone who is super duper excited to be kicking off summer with this lovely group of friends and sea monsters alike, and of course, all of you fine folks. I’m ready for some fun in the Portorosso sun, and I hope you are too!

Before we start getting into the update, though, I would like to start with some mousekeeping. And, at the top of my mousekeeping list is I would like to acknowledge that yes, this is a pre-recorded stream, again. I know. But, but but but but but but, it’s not gonna be like this forever. I’ve spoken to quite a few of you over on Discord – shout out to all my Discord pals, but thought it was also important to address it here, face to face. So, given that we’ve had quite a lot of transitions in recent months, with Natalie moving on to brand new adventures, and Kailey coming on as a temporary community manager, and then with my own arrival, it’s taken us a bit of time to reach a new status quo, so thank you so so much for your patience there.

Oh, additionally, the Finding Dory NGO was a rather unique update as I mentioned in the comments of the last livestream, which required us to do some pre-recorded content. Oh, and lastly, this gal needs to get into the office to pick up some fancy recording equipment.

So that’s going to be happening soon, and then we’re going to transition into more live recording. You won’t have to put up with this sad setup for long. Promise.

So. thinking into the future, we know many of you are eager to return to live update videos as opposed to pre-recorded content, and we hear you are enjoying the shortened duration streams. As a result, I would personally really like to move toward a hybrid approach – so I am thinking 50% of the stream would be live, interacting with you lovely people, and the other 50% will be prerecorded going through the update and the content and all of that good stuff.

So, I am hoping that will kind of help hit a sweet spot that pleases as many kingdomers as possible, but in order to know that, I would like to hear from you. Please place a comment down below and have your say about your topic. Let us know if you like the idea of a pre-recorded, or, sorry, of a hybrid livestream setup. If you are enjoying the shortened duration of recent streams – I think in the past it was about 45 minutes, and now we’re trying to narrow it down to 15 to 20 minutes. 20 minutes is my preference – and then, anything else you’d like to share. Anything at all. I’m all Mickey ears.

Alright, next on the mousekeeping list are the patch notes. So, I heard a lot of feedback from all of you lovely people that you are looking for more granular information especially when it comes to tower challenges just so you can better plan out your strategies. So, I am going to try my best to hit those notes for you, so keep the feedback rolling in and I will iterate as I go. Oh, and lastly. I am really curious. Did you enjoy the Stitch 626 Day Sweepstakes. Oh that’s a tongue twister. But for real, please let me know. I know you’ve all been rather eager to participate in more quizzes and earn the chance to win more prizes through sweepstakes, so I really hope that that event hit those notes for you. But of course, you gotta let me know. So throw a comment in there.

Alright, let’s see, let’s see. That’s it for mouskeeping. Let’s move on to the good stuff – Luca! The world is yours, kingdomers. It’s early November in in Portorosso, and Luca and Giulia have returned home for the first holiday of the school year. Together with Alberto, they are preparing to transform Giulia’s fish delivery bike into a top of the line racing machine. We were just here for the pasta, but now it’s turning into maximum excitement. So join us for our time limited event featuring Luca, Alberto, Giulia, Ercole, and Machiavelli (who is my favourite, because he is a kitty cat), and get ready to win the big rematch. Go underdogs! Without further ado, here’s the trailer: Luca Trailer.

That was amazing. So, mark your calendars, kingdomers. The update will be made available for download on July 13th. Please note, as always, some platforms may receive the update at a later time, but do not worry. Everybody will be able to take part in our time-limited event at the same time. So again, the Luca mini event will start on July 15th. Chapter 1 will begin that very day. Chapter 2 will starts on July 16th. Chapter 3 starts on July 20th, and Chapter 4 starts on July 27th. The entire Luca event will end on July 31st, so please keep that in mind.

Now it’s time to check out the new content. Yeah yeah yeah! Alright, So let’s start with characters, shall we? First up, we have Luca, who will be available in chapter 1. Here he goes… Look at this cutie. Have any of you guys seen the film yet? I personally loved it, I thought it was super cute. Next we have Alberto, of course. He has the best hairstyle, don’t you think? Look at him go. What a handsome gent. He will be available in Chapter 2, by the way. Now we have the lovely Giulia, Santa Mozzarella! This little cutie is going to be available in chapter 3. I tried to do my best Giulia hair, but it’s not as fluffy as hers. And then we have Ercole, the big chapter 4 boss. You can unlock him by completing the first few chapters of the event. Finally, we have my favourite, Machiavelli. This is the premium character, and he will be available in chapter 1 inside of an event bundle, so keep your eyes peeled for that.

Moving right along, let’s get right into the attractions. So, we have the Portorosso Tower, which will be available in Chapter 3. Of the event. Such a nice looking attraction. Makes me wanna race. And then we have Alberto’s Hideout, which is a premium attraction that will be available in chapter 2. They’re such good friends. Ah, and this is an exciting one, kingdomers. It’s not Luca related, but it’s still awesome. So this is the Jungle Cruise, which is an elixir attraction that will be added to the Merlin Shop. So be sure to check out the brand new Jungle Cruise film which is coming out soon, kingdomers. Keep that in mind. Oh! And, if you’ve ridden this ride, since it exists in real life, please let me know. I’m so curious.

Next up, decorations. This time around we have a Luca gold trophy which is part of a time limited leaderboard event you all know and love called Striking Gold. Striking Gold requires you to find gold trophies from around the kingdom by collecting them from attractions and character activities. Fun!

Next, we have concessions. So, naturally, a pasta stand would make an appearance. Mmm, what I wouldn’t give for a heaping bowl of pasta right about now. Have I ever told you how much I love food? I really love food. Yeah, I could eat all day every day. Next up, we have the Luca float, which is another premium item, and it will be available during chapter 2 of the event in an event bundle.

Speaking of the event, let’s move along and look at the event screen, shall we? Boy oh boy, this is a gorgeous themed event screen. I’m loving it. So just to quickly go over everything you can expect, at the bottom on the left, we have the FAQ page, which will give you some tips and tricks on how to complete the event. Something to keep in mind – if you unlock Machiavelli early, he will help you unlock Luca characters.

And of course, at the very top on the left here, we have all of the characters that you can acquire from this update. Looking great, looking great!

This one is a very important tab, kingdomers. This is your event goals page. Scroll through this to see what it is that you need to do in order to reach the end and complete the event.

Here, we’ve got a little shop and as it says, you can check the shop for more limited time Luca content, which is tons of fun. And lastly, of course, we have the event leaderboard. Now, on my demo build, I don’t have leaderboard names up yet, but I’m sure you can all envision what that looks like. So, this is where you can see all of the different rankings, and of course, I believe there will be prizes for the top spot.

Okay, and speaking of events, I would love to share news about tapper events, a brand new kind of event-ish (you’ll see what I mean in a minute), new features, and balancing changes.

So, starting with tappers, we will have some adorable Turtle Tappers from July 15th to July 31st. These little cuties will help you earn Luca tokens throughout the event.

Next up, we are going to have some island crabs that are running amuck. So, shoo them away by tapping them from July 18th to the 20th.

And of course, since it’s summer, we have to contend with some pesky seagulls that are totally eyeing up my beach picnic. Protect your lunch from July 24th to the 26th.

Ah yes, and as I mentioned earlier, there will be a striking gold event twice, which is cool. So, collect gold trophies from July 21ast to the 23rd, and again from the 28th to the 30th. Go gold trophies!

Alright, onto new features. So, this is something I am very excited to talk about because I know you’ve been looking forward to this, kingdomers. We have updated the character book! So now, it looks just as spiffy as the updated chest shop, which is super fun. So it should now be easier than ever to navigate the new character book. You can enjoy a lot less scrolling and improved grouping of your beloved characters. It’s truly a thing of beauty, and we can’t wait to see how you feel about it.

Ooh, this one is exciting. We’re doing something a little bit different. It’s new, but it’s not. We are going to rerun a tower event. That’s right, yes! Starting on August 5th, we will be giving each of you a second chance to obtain Wreck-it-Ralph characters. Chapter 1 will start on August 5th, Chapter 2 starts on August 10th, Chapter 3 starts on August 15th, and the tower event will end on August 20th. Speaking of tappers that I was talking about earlier, we will have hidden crows throughout the tower event reprise, and this time, however, this time, they will also be dropping refreshers. I forgot the term for a minute. But they will be dropping refreshers. Please note that hidden crows do not have a 100% refresher drop rate, it’s just a chance.

And I should mention, as we’ve kind of talked about during past tower events, how each player progresses through these challenges depends on how long they’ve been playing Disney Magic Kingdoms. So, please set your tower challenge goals accordingly, and remember to have fun above all else. Because that’s really what it’s all about, right? Right!

Okay, oooh, balancing changes. Kingdomers, we have a lot of them. Yeah, too many for me to list right here in this stream by the way, so I strongly encourage all of you to go to Disney-magic-kingdoms.com to check out the full list of changes.

And I guess that’s it and that’s all. It’s been an absolute pleasure to be able to speak to you again, um, I hope that you’ve all enjoyed learning what’s to come in Update 51 – Luca. So, tell us which characters you are most excited to welcome, and if you haven’t watched the film yet, again, I strongly recommend you do so. It’s so lovely.

Alright, tune in next time to learn more about who we’re going to be welcoming to Disney Magic Kingdoms next. And of course we invite you to keep an eye on our social media channels for more information about that.

Thank you very much, keep smiling, and I'll see you next time. Bye now.
