Stardew Valley, the much beloved 'farming and country life simulator' RPG, has announced the release date of its long-awaited multiplayer update. PC, Mac, and Linux players can mark their calendars down for August 1st, just 12 days away. Unfortunately, Xbox One, Playstation 4, and Nintendo Switch players will have to hold out a little longer, as no date has been announced yet.
As sad as I am for console players having to wait, I'm overjoyed this is finally happening. The multiplayer beta has been out for a couple months, but I've patiently held off for the full release just to make sure I can avoid any game-breaking bugs. Stardew Valley is easily one of my top games of all time and multiplayer should only serve to enhance the experience.
