Stardew Valley's highly anticipated 1.6 update finally arrives on mobile devices! Console and mobile players can rejoice as the massive update launches on November 4th, 2024, following its March 2024 PC debut.
What's New in Stardew Valley 1.6 Mobile?
This update significantly expands the game's multiplayer capabilities, now supporting up to eight players simultaneously – double the previous limit! Collaborate with friends on farming, fishing, and construction projects. Two exciting fishing festivals, the Trout Derby and SquidFest, join the seasonal event roster, alongside the Desert Festival.
Explore the new Meadowlands Farm map, ideal for livestock farming and convenient fishing. Engage with over 100 new NPC dialogue lines, enriching your interactions with Pelican Town's residents.
Discover a wealth of new items: the Big Chest (nearly double the storage of a standard chest), a dehydrator for preserving produce, a heavy-duty furnace, and a bait maker for crafting specialized fishing lures.
Personalize your farm with new furniture styles and over 25 stylish new hats. Earn prize tickets through quests and festivals, redeemable at a prize machine in Lewis's house.
After befriending your initial pet, acquire multiple companions, each potentially bringing gifts. Dress them up with hats! You'll also notice NPCs sporting winter attire.
A golden Joja parrot assists in finding those elusive golden walnuts on Ginger Island. Cultivate new crops: carrots, summer squash, broccoli, powdermelon, and two giant crop varieties.
Reasons for the Delay?
The mobile and console release delay allowed the developers to thoroughly test the update on PC, ensuring a smoother launch. November brings the fruits of their labor! Prepare for new fishing events, adorable pets, and exciting new crops.
