Stardew Valley multiplayer might ‘be ready in about a month’

The long-awaited cooperative multiplayer mode remains to be heading in the right direction to hit Stardew Valley quickly, going by what creator Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone has tapped out on the tweetosphere. Following February’s word that it was coming into testing, Barone final evening offered the replace: “still making good progress on fixing bugs, if all goes well it should be ready in about a month” on PC. Good, good. The plan had been to enter beta testing in spring and hell, I’m unsure we’ve even left winter but.

Stardew Valley’s multiplayer will let as much as three of your friends work in your farm as farmhands, getting their very own cottage. As properly as working, they’ll get to affix in occasions and adventures, marry NPCs, and marry yooouuu. The primary participant could have extra authority however, by and huge, co-op gamers will get to affix in a lot of the farmfun.

While publishers Chucklefish are in command of including multiplayer, Barone is engaged on new bits of his personal. Update 1.three will even embody a new winter town event, new NPC events, respeccing, craftable signs, and hats for horses.

Very vital.

Don’t maintain Barone to that “month” estimate, thoughts. Adding a characteristic like multiplayer can throw up unexpected issues, and this was only a informal tweet slightly than a giant formal announcement. Get… cautiously excited?
