The Emotional Rescue update brought the Retro Roadtrip Star Path to the village, and with it, some pretty massive changes to this event system in Disney Dreamlight Valley. The biggest one is the addition of routine duties.

What are Star Path routine duties in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
Routine duties are an additional set of duties that unlock weekly on Wednesdays for a specified amount of time before the event ends. For the Retro Roadtrip Star Path, new routine duties will be unlocked for five weeks, but this may vary with future Star Paths.
These special tasks appear alongside regular Retro Roadtrip duties, meaning you have two types of missions to get done. The addition of these new types of duties is meant to offset the removal of tougher tasks that would take multiple days to complete, including those with locked content and those that otherwise made progression in the event difficult.
There are enough Tokens in the regular Star Path event to unlock all rewards as soon as you finish them. The routine duties just grant you some extra ones over time to spend on the bonus prizes featured in it.
When do new routine duties unlock in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
A fresh set of routine duties unlocks every Wednesday for five weeks while the Retro Roadtrip event is active. New missions will be added at precisely 8am CT/1pm UTC. Each batch includes three unique quests for you to get done.
How to unlock routine duties in Disney Dreamlight Valley
You can unlock additional routine duties by completing all missions from the previous week. These quests must be completed in order, so to access fresh tasks, you have to steadily progress through each stage.
If you start late, you can easily catch up without waiting between weeks, but you do still need to finish the tasks in the order they're given. This changes if you purchase the Premium Star Path, as acquiring it allows you to complete the routine duties in any order you like once they're available.
