Important takeaways

A song subgroup of Disney Dreamlight Valley playerbase has recently taken to social media to voice some complaints about The Night Show Star Path. A significant portion of these complaints seem to stem from the fact that many Disney Dreamlight Valley fans were hoping to get a Halloween-themed Star Trek in October 2024.
Since its early access debut in September 2022, Gameloft's hit life sim has launched 12 Star Paths in total. These battle pass-like reward boards would usually roll out along with majors Disney Dreamlight Valley updates, with the sole exception of the DreamSnaps patch which did not receive one. Gameloft announced the game's latest Star Path, The Night Show, in early October 2024.
Some Disney Dreamlight Valley fans are disappointed with Night Show Star Path
However, player reactions to this reveal have been quite polarized. While many fans have agreed that a Star Path based on rock concerts is an interesting concept, they were disappointed by the timing of The Night Show's announcement. “Feels like the wrong season for it,” Reddit user Jikasbox wrote, adding that they're not impressed with what Gameloft has shown so far. Meanwhile some others Disney Dreamlight Valley fans have taken issue with the fact that the central stage that is part of the Star Path is not actually walkable and is merely a decoration.
Many of these complaints have seen fans say they are disappointed that the October 2024 Star Path will not be Halloween-themed, and believe that rock 'n' roll is no longer dark and scary because “it's not the 50s anymore” , as one player put it. For clarity, Disney Dreamlight Valley already announced some Halloween 2024 plans, but instead of having them revolve around a galaxy of themes, it chose to celebrate the spooky season with another round of the Trick-or-Treat event, which will once again be available from October 23 until the end of the month.
As for The Night Show, the new Star Path will debut as part of Disney Dreamlight Valley Jungle Getaway update, which is scheduled to roll out on October 9. Identified by version number 1.13, this release will not be focused on Halloween but will instead introduce two The Lion King characters in the form of Timon and Pumbaa.
While The Night Show isn't what all fans were hoping for, many of them admitted that its Moonstone and free item rewards are generous enough to motivate them to complete it regardless. Based on Gameloft's track record, the next major Disney Dreamlight Valley the update and its accompanying Star Path are likely to be released in late December 2024.
