Stardew Valley's highly anticipated 1.6 update finally arrives on mobile devices on November 4th, 2024! Console and mobile players can now enjoy the massive update originally released on PC in March 2024.
What's New in Stardew Valley 1.6 Mobile?
This update significantly expands the gameplay experience. Online multiplayer now supports up to eight players, doubling the previous limit for collaborative farming, building, and fishing adventures. Two exciting new fishing festivals—the Trout Derby and SquidFest—join the seasonal event lineup, alongside the Desert Festival.
Explore the new Meadowlands Farm layout, ideal for raising livestock and convenient fishing. Over 100 new NPC dialogues enhance interactions with the town's inhabitants.
A plethora of new items await discovery: the Big Chest (nearly double the storage of a regular chest), a dehydrator for preserving produce, a heavy furnace, and a bait maker for targeted fishing. Customize your farm with new furniture styles and over 25 stylish new hats. Complete quests and festival events to earn prize tickets, redeemable at a prize machine in Lewis's house.
Multiple pet ownership is now possible after maxing out your starter pet's affection. These adorable companions may even bring you gifts, and you can now accessorize them with hats! Notice the charming winter outfits donned by the NPCs.

Reasons for the Delay
The delay in releasing the update for mobile and consoles allowed the developers to thoroughly test the update on PC, ensuring a smoother, bug-free experience for everyone.
