The Last Stardew Valley 1.6 Info Drop

The Last Stardew Valley 1.6 Info Drop

I finally believe we’ve gotten all of the information we’re going to get before the release of version 1.6 Mr ape has informed us that the update is in the bug fixing stage and should be coming out soon so one more time let’s go over everything we know so far the

First time we learned about the 1.6 update was from a small tweet saying it wasn’t going to be too big just focused on modding updates He also mentioned that there would be a few new dialogues as far as the modding updates go you can check out all of the changes on the Wiki

Page dedicated to it there’s a lot of nitty-gritty details that I’m not nearly versed enough in mod making to explain it all there are a few notes on this page that will apply to all players on the map player locations will now be exact instead of just appearing at the

Middle of whatever area they’re in farm computers will now give you information about whatever area they’re placed in currently they only give you information about the default Farm we’ll be able to move our Farmhouse and pet Bol just like any other building and the item id system is getting overhauled basically

All items will now have a unique Global ID and while it’s not confirmed this is probably going to fix all of the problems of items having overlapping IDs allowing you to do things like put a yellow couch into a loom or use a green wallpaper instead of a prismatic shard

In the Lost bundle things like that a little while later we got another tweet simply saying aridium Scythe people went nuts over the next few months we got drip fed small details new festivals new items Secrets he replied to one tweet asking about a take out and put

Everything in button for chests and he said he might put it in as long as it doesn’t clutter the UI too much dig spot spawn rates for ginger Island West will be improving that’s how you get the infamously rare snake vertebrae for Golden walnuts he’s considering the

Possibility of giving your dog a treat and we got our first image of the update in September a Golden Bird sitting a top a joa themed stand at this spot of Ginger Island just west of the volcano I guess is this could be some alternative to the golden Walnut hunt similar to the

Joa membership being an alternative to the community set then we got our first huge info drop this image lists a bunch of additions coming in 1.6 and this is around the same time we realized that this wasn’t a small update I’ve gone over in- depth before so I won’t linger for too long

We’re getting three new festivals new late game content for each skill new items joa alternatives to late game quests which I believe is referring to this bird from before winter outfits for villagers possibly inspired by the very popular seasonal outfits mod we can see Jass and Fashions winner outfit at the

Bottom here new types of rewards from the billboard quests eight player multiplayer on PC which technically was already possible without mods but now it’s official and a new Farm type which is huge there’s been a lot of speculation about what the farm type could be the most popular theory is a

Huge eight player Farm similar to the Four Corners farm when multiplayer initially dropped in version 1.4 personally I’m cheering for a swamp themed Farm there’s also a ton of new Sprites here this looks like a new fruit I thought these look like Amber but most other people think it’s some kind of egg

Some sort of new machine related to fish a bush the popular theory for this totem is it’s to force a good luck day which personally I believe is the most boring possibility so I’m hoping that it’s a warp to a new type of area drinkie this

Looks like a bundle of arrows to me so maybe bows could be added in addition to the slingshots some sort of ticket a mystery box a mystery man and three different frogs and to me this screams a new Coupe animal the only other animal we have multiple variations of are the

Chickens and then the last image that many may have missed is this tree in the bottom left this looks like a swampy type of tree it’s part of the reason why I think the new Farm is going to be a swamp and it is different from the types

Of trees that we have in the existing swamp-like areas and that covers all of the information that was out last time I made a video from here on out it’s all new we’ll be able to put hats on our cats and dogs inter interestingly only two of these hats are currently in the

Game for the other two there’s hats that are similar but there’s no perfect matches in October he tweeted this innocent image of wild horseradish juice of all things but hey what’s that that doesn’t seem to be like anything currently in the game from here on out

He’s going to be making a habit of hiding things just off screen and I can’t help but feel like the Scythe is specifically put there for some reason as well but I couldn’t tell you why a few days later we got giant key fruit giant key fruit in December we got big

Chest accompanied by a stone big chest now originally I did think that this item was something we haven’t seen before but that’s definitely just a scythe does make you wonder why it’s in both images though we also got confirmation that the big chest will still work with the workbenches he

Posted this image for Christmas and while I don’t see anything new at this point I’m just suspicious and then this image on the other hand we have a lot to unpack so this appears to be a New Year’s Eve Festival right wrong a little while after this image released one of

The people who works for concerned a and before you ask no they don’t work on the game they work on other stuff they came out to say that this isn’t a new festival and to instead focus on the individual parts of the image before we

Do that though we have to ask what is this image how did they get everyone gathered down on the beach if there isn’t any Festival my theory is that this will be a sort of photo mode where you can place people in items wherever you want and this is supported by the

Fact that everyone happens to be standing perfectly on a grid normally in game they don’t now let’s take a look at the individual details all of these characters on the left are wearing their brand new winter outfits these lamps on the ground are the decorative lamps that

Are already in game however they can’t normally be turned on and it looks like that’s going to change these fireworks are completely new kind of they’re currently an unused asset in the files of the the game there’s also purple and teal variants of them in the files which

Will probably also be used seems like we’re going to get a new type of sign that can display text instead of images this mystery box that was actually in the previous image makes a return and I have no idea what that could mean and the

Cow I I don’t know about the cow we were told to specifically pay attention to this cow but it’s a cow we already have cows this is a more realistic cow honestly originally I thought it was just made for this image specifically and wasn’t going to actually be in the

Game but now the cow is important apparently and that was our final major info drop but there is still a little more the update will probably come to PC first but he doesn’t want the delay for console and mobile to be nearly as large as 1.5 was it will have a 2024 release

Date which at this point is pretty obvious he recommends that you start up a new save for the update everything will still work fine if you don’t but some events will be taken out of context and you’re going to unlock everything pretty much all at once I assume there’s

Probably things that are meant to be unlocked at specific times such as the very beginning of year 2 or after you complete the community center things like that and we got some emergency last second tweets because he just does not stop someone asked why the map doesn’t change with the season which he

Responded to with the sunglasses Emoji I think we all know what this means and then someone asked if Terraria was going to get anything for 1.6 while that sounds like an odd question back in 1.5 Terraria also got an update to include a blue chicken and a summonable junimo so

It seems like Terraria will be getting something else and then the final tweet the 1.6 update was larger than he originally planned but is now in the bug fixing and polishing phase and it should be out soon and even if it isn’t look at this man look at everything he’s added

To the game for free purely out of passion for improving the game and doing right by the players he often replies to individual issues to try and help solve the problem sometimes even asking for the save file so he can go in and fix it himself if anyone has earned a little

Grace it’s him this is going to be the last time I’ll update you before 1.6 releases if we do end up getting any more information before the release I’ll probably tweet about it or make a short hope to see you when it comes out and good night oh

Now that we’re probably just a few months away from 1.6, it’s time to go over all of the things that have been revealed over the last year or so! There’s a lot that was revealed through tweet replies, which can be hard to find, so hopefully you find out about something you didn’t know before!
