What a time to be alive for a creator.
The online world has taken advantage of the tech breakthrough to offer vast possibilities for creativity.

Developed by Media Molecule, Dreams is…

So, teased since 2013, this February 14th of 2020 prepare to experience the start of a new era.
Should we look out for Dreams developers in the near future?
02 SURF THE DREAM, SHAPE THE DREAM
PS4's Dreams is a game creation system. Where armed with your imp you’ll be able to create infinite ways of art.
With four main modes – Dream Surfing, Dream Shaping, Home Space Editor and Community Jam, you’ll get an amazing experience and first glance into the world of Dreams.
Dream Surfing is the place where you can browse the Dreamiverse and play games, explore art or just listen to some music.
While Dream Shaping, will unleash the creator in you, create, shape, animate and edit your own games, art, scenes or what you’re imagining at the moment.

Time to solve it on Dreams.
Just a warning, this is a big rabbit hole, so be aware.
03 LOVE THE IMP
Okay, so how can I interact with the Dreamiverse?
You know that you need a proper companion.
Meet your imp, choose your imp and be your imp.
Imp is your creative partner that makes it possible with the help of three different ways of control, the Dual Shock 4, PS4 Motion Sensor or PS4 Move Controllers.
Move, grab & pull your elements to build that scene or just explore with Imp and bing play other creations.

05 THE DREAMIVERSE IS REAL
Apart from letting your imagination (and patience) fly.
PS4's Dreams is a library of games and overall art, with a great diversity of games that keeps growing by the day and Media Molecule aiming to expand its community, there is room for greatness.

Dreams are making possible the creation of games with the tools of your console.
06 PS4'S DREAMS IS COMMUNITY IN A NUT SHELL
But the future of Dreams relies on the work of its community.
We talked about the Share element of this universe, and that’s when Dream Shaping makes its entrance by discovering other creators' work.
Dreams are about community and sharing
Where tutorials, resources or even the option of taking a character model from other creators and adapting it to your own art is invaluable.
Comment, like, share or just pick the random selection and play.
Discover the most popular games, search by name or look out for what Media Molecule is creating is one of the many options behind Dream Shaping.
Just imagine the possibilities of creating a bigger game by multi creators.
Well is real, Dreamers are forming micro studios to crowd create new and old games.
And we think some studios will keep an eye on it.
07 WITH PS4'S DREAMS YOUR FAVORITE GAME IS THE ONE YOU CREATE
What’s also fascinating about Dreams is that is a game creation academy.
Where you can learn a skill, create something, post it and see its potential.
What Media Molecule took to new heights could be boost by the golden work of the Dreams community.
Breathtaking graphics, styles, ways of playing and sharing.
The future is not only we’re playing Dreams, but it could also be… We’re Dreams Creators.
