A remix of the song was released on The Game's mixtape, "You Know What It Is Vol. 3". It is a mix between "Dreams" and "A Dream", which is a track featuring The Notorious B.I.G. from Jay-Z's 2002 album "". It combines a chopped and screwed version of B.I.G.'s a cappella verse on "A Dream" (which is Juicy's first verse) with the instrumental of "Dreams".
There is also another official remix of the song with Trey Songz where The Game raps his normal 1st & 3rd verse and Trey Songz singing the 2nd verse.
An unreleased version of Dreams leaked onto the internet in October 2011. This version features similar lyrics to the final version with revised themes and content, with The Game reflecting on events in his own life as opposed to reflecting on the legacies left by rap legends. It leaked labeled as "Original Version".
