Have you played enough Stardew Valley already? Now you say “Yes”, but after reading the contents of the next update your answer will be “No!”

Mimics of Stardew Valley are now more than carrots in Farmer Maggot’s field. But according to (SteamDB) even after many years, what is still played unbroken by tens of thousands of fans worldwide? Correct, the original! And that same original will soon be getting new content.

Update 1.6 for Stardew Valley wasn’t supposed to be that exciting and was mainly aimed at modders. Now a snippet of the changes is here and it becomes clear: Something went wrong – to the delight of the fans!

Over 100 lines of new dialogue, new festivals and much more

There will be a Stardew 1.6 update. It mainly contains changes for modders […]. But there is also new game content, although much less than 1.5.

(With these words) Stardew Valley creator ConcernedApe announced the 1.6 update a few months ago. In the meantime we know: Yes, he kept his word, because the new update does not come close to the gigantic update 1.5.

However, it has now become clear: We will still be able to look forward to plenty of new game content. In a new post on X (formerly Twitter) ConcernedApe has now published a list with some new features – mind you, some, because the list is still not complete, so there may be more content waiting for fans.

What exactly does Update 1.6 bring? The above list in German brings to light the following new content:

A new big festival

Two new mini festivals

New content for later in the game focusing on the different skills

New items and crafting recipes

Joja alternatives for some end-game quests

Over 100 new dialog lines

Winter outfits for the villagers

New rewards for completed order board quests

Support for 8-player multiplayer (PC only)

Many small additions and adjustments

New farm type

New secrets and more

You see: If you were planning to start again soon with Stardew Valley in the idyllic country life, update 1.6 could be the ideal time for you. However, there is no exact release date yet.
