Stardew Valley 1.6 Is Finally Coming to Consoles. Developer Announces Release Date

As a seasoned Stardew Valley gamer, who has spent countless hours cultivating my digital farm and building relationships with the townsfolk, I can hardly contain my excitement! The announcement of the release date for version 1.6 on other platforms is like manna from heaven. I’ve been eagerly waiting since its PC debut back in March, and now, finally, we console and mobile gamers get to join the fun!


At long last, we have the official date for the major Stardew Valley update on various platforms! After waiting over six months, creator Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone has revealed that version 1.6 will be available on consoles and mobile devices starting November 4th. This announcement includes the Nintendo Switch edition as well, which was mentioned in response to a fan’s post on platform X.

Baron additionally verified that the console edition will encompass all minor PC updates post-1.6 launch, including the upcoming 1.6.9 patch (expected on PC concurrently with the console’s major update release). Furthermore, he recalled his advice from March: even though some content may be accessible through old save files, it would be optimal to begin a fresh game after the update is launched.

Enthusiasts of Stardew Valley had been eagerly anticipating this information for quite some time. The long-awaited update 1.6 was finally unveiled on PC on the 19th of March. This substantial update was followed by several minor adjustments from “ConcernedApe,” which not only rectified new or existing glitches but also introduced a handful of novel additions.

As an ardent fan, I can’t contain my excitement about the impending release date announcement for Stardew Valley! The developer’s dedication to porting this masterpiece to consoles and mobile devices has been a source of anticipation, momentarily diverting him from his next project, Haunted Chocolatier. Post the 1.6 version launch on PC, it seems that Barone and the dev team will continue refining Stardew Valley’s console and mobile versions for an extended period. But once that’s done, I can hardly wait for the creator to dive back into Haunted Chocolatier – unless, of course, the anxious fans manage to persuade him for a well-deserved short break!
