Stardew Valley 1.7 update sounds like it’ll be as big as the farming sim’s last, with ConcernedApe hinting at social features, a new farm type, and “lots more”

Stardew Valley mastermind Eric ‘ConcernedApe’ Barone recently unveiled a 1.7 update for his 2016 farming sim, but a few months have passed without any solid word on what it might contain – until now, that is.

In a surprising new reply to a fan asking for any hints about 1.7 “or a sneak peek,” the iconic solo developer provides a little bit of insight – although, of course, nothing will be enough for us hungry Stardew Valley stans if we’re honest. “There will be some more character/social stuff, ” writes ConcernedApe. “It’s also traditional to add a new farm type. Lots more, but I don’t want to reveal much yet.” I’m personally grateful we got a reveal at all.
