Stardew Valley Update 1.6 Is Coming To Mobile This November!

Stardew Valley's highly anticipated 1.6 update finally arrives on mobile devices! Console and mobile gamers can rejoice as the massive update launches on November 4th, 2024, following its March 2024 PC debut.

What's New in Stardew Valley Update 1.6 Mobile?

This update significantly expands the game's features. The most notable addition is online multiplayer support for up to eight players, doubling the previous limit. Collaborate with friends on farming, fishing, and construction projects. Two exciting new fishing festivals—the Trout Derby and SquidFest—join the seasonal event lineup, alongside the Desert Festival.

Explore the new Meadowlands farm map, ideal for livestock and convenient fishing. Over 100 new NPC dialogues enhance interactions with the town's residents.

Discover a plethora of new items: a Big Chest (nearly double the capacity of a standard chest), a dehydrator for preserving produce, a heavy furnace, and a bait maker for crafting specialized fish lures.

Personalize your farm with new furniture styles and over 25 stylish hats. Earn prize tickets by completing quests and participating in festivals, then redeem them at a prize machine located in Lewis' house.

After achieving maximum heart levels with your initial pet, you can now acquire multiple pets, receive gifts from them, and even dress them in hats! Notice the NPCs sporting new winter attire.

A golden Joja parrot assists in locating the remaining golden walnuts on Ginger Island. Cultivate new crops, including carrots, summer squash, broccoli, powdermelon, and two giant crop varieties.

Reasons for the Delay

The delayed mobile and console release allowed the developers to thoroughly test the update on PC, ensuring a smoother experience for all players. The wait is over—prepare for new fishing events, adorable pets, and exciting new crops!
