Stardew Valley 1.6 Update Hits Mobile in November!

Stardew Valley enthusiasts, rejoice! The long-awaited update 1.6 is finally making its way to mobile devices on November 4th, 2024. Console and mobile players, who have been eagerly waiting since the PC release in March 2024, can now dive into a wealth of new content and features.

What’s New In Stardew Valley Update 1.6 Mobile?

The update significantly enhances the multiplayer experience by supporting up to eight players online, doubling the previous limit. This means you can invite more friends to join in the fun of building, farming, and fishing together. Exciting new events are on the horizon too, with two fishing festivals, the Trout Derby and SquidFest, joining the calendar alongside the new Desert Festival.

For those looking to diversify their farm, the new Meadowlands Farm layout is a delightful addition, offering a serene spot for raising livestock with the added bonus of nearby fishing spots. Social butterflies will appreciate the over 100 new NPC dialogues, adding depth to your interactions with the charming townsfolk of Stardew Valley.

The update also introduces a variety of innovative items, such as the Big Chest, which is nearly double the size of a regular chest, a dehydrator for drying fruits and mushrooms, a heavy furnace, and a bait maker for crafting specific fish baits. For those who love to customize, new furniture styles and over 25 new hats provide ample opportunities to personalize your farm and character.

A new feature allows you to collect prize tickets from quests and festival events, which can be redeemed at a prize machine located in Lewis’ house. Additionally, after maxing out hearts with your starter pet, you can now have multiple pets that may bring you gifts and can be adorned with hats. NPCs will now don winter outfits, adding a seasonal touch to your interactions.

For adventurers, a golden Joja parrot will assist in locating the last golden walnuts on Ginger Island. New crops like carrots, summer squash, broccoli, and powdermelon, along with two giant crops, expand your farming options.

Why The Delay?

The delay in rolling out the Stardew Valley 1.6 update to mobile and consoles was due to the developers' commitment to thorough testing on PC to ensure a bug-free experience. Now, with the update set for November, players can look forward to exploring new fishing events, bonding with new pets, and cultivating new crops.
