Stardew Valley developer ConcernedApe has released the long-awaited 1.6 update for the game, which introduces many changes.
Here's What We Know
If we start listing absolutely everything that ConcernedApe has added or changed, we will be sitting here for a long time.
Therefore, here is a short list of some of the innovations:
- Added the Desert Festival, a three-day event in the spring that you can get to after the bus is repaired.
- Two mini fishing festivals have been added: Trout Derby and SquidFest.
- Added a new environmental "event" in the summer.

Where To Play

Flashback
Stardew Valley is a pixelated farm simulator where we got our grandfather's old farm in the Stardew Valley and now we have to go there and start a new life. In the game, you can develop the farm, fish, raise cattle, communicate with the inhabitants of the valley, go on adventures and just have a good time alone or with friends.
