Stardew Valley's lifetime sales were not a sprint: it's a marathon. That's the kind of raw power that developer Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone tapped into when they created this timeless masterpiece, as the evergreen sales of this monster of a ...

I remember when Stardew Valley came out. I was preoccupied with a lot of work at the time, but vowed to get to it as quickly as I could: bearing a lot of fond memories for the Harvest Moon series. The minute I booted it up, I knew that I wo...

Stardew Valley is packed enough on its own: so much so that I haven't really sought out the comfort of mods. But the modding scene has been incredibly robust ever since the game hit the market, to the point where just about anyone can whip ...

For all the time I've spent in Stardew Valley, I've never thought about moving my bed – which is good, because in the current version of the game, it won't budge. That's changing in update 1.5, though! People are stoked about the bed...

You might love Stardew Valley enough to own multiple copies of the game, but what about a physical copy? It's a frequent request, and the time has come. Creator Eric Barone partnered with Fangamer for a Collector's Edition release of Starde...

I feel like a restless kid on an all-day road trip who only left home twenty minutes ago. "Is it ready yet? Is it ready yet?" No, Stardew Valley hasn't gotten its 1.5 update yet – "it's still in a 'nose to the grindstone phase'" &ndas...

At this point, Stardew Valley has its own lore. If there's a sequel you better believe that developer ConcernedApe will expand upon it, and the fans will demand appearances from some of the more iconic characters and races that inhabit...

I have a lot of family members who cross-stitch, but every time I think I can remotely begin to grasp the fine art of it, something else comes up. These Stardew Valley seasonal designs are really tempting me to finally take the pl...

I stopped and starred at this Stardew Valley image for quite some time. Shared by pikaprim on Reddit, it showcases all four seasons spliced into one image, which is actually a 33-year-old Stardew Valley farm. For those who ar...

Stardew Valley has skyrocketed into my "most played games of all time" list these past couple of years. Free substantial updates help (there's more on the way!), but co-op single-handedly sealed the deal. I literally doubled my playtime wit...

Stardew Valley launched back in February of 2016, but at any given moment, you wouldn't think so! The passion for Stardew is just as strong as it was back when it was a little-known Harvest Moon contender, and developer Eric "ConcernedApe" ...

This week, Destructoid is made possible by Boot Hill Bounties, a throwback RPG in the style of 16-bit classics like Chrono Trigger and EarthBound. Gather your party and head out on a massive, spaghetti western adventure, now available on Ni...

It's kind of crazy that Stardew Valley hasn't hit Switch yet physically in the west, but it sure hasn't. Amazingly Japan got a limited release physically, and region-free copies go for hundreds of dollars. That...may change. According to a ...

Stardew Valley creator Eric Barone is letting fans influence the direction of update 1.5 – a tiny part of it, anyway. The game designer recently held a Twitter poll asking fans if they'd rather have an avocado, banana, mango, or passi...

The continued love and affection for Stardew Valley has exceeded all expectations. Four years after launch, creator Eric Barone is working on yet another content update. He's cooking up version 1.5. "Thanks everyone for the Stardew Valley f...

I'm fine with fighting creatures in Stardew Valley as a means to an end, but I know plenty of players who would prefer not to engage with the mines if given a satisfying alternative. A new mod for the PC version of Stardew Valley, Pacifist ...

Okay, maybe "cinematic universe" is a tad on the dramatic side. But whatever's next from Stardew Valley's developer Eric Barone will tie into his farming sim that took the world by storm. Barone responded to a fan's question on Twitter abou...

I've given so many hours to Stardew Valley, but I don't regret the time I've invested in the game – not for a second. The same can't be said of other time-sinks I put up with, most of which come with at least a tinge of regret. Stard...

Stardew Valley is proof that staying power is real, even if you don't hold a "live service model" over people's heads, or wage a clandestine PR war against your players. As revealed by creator Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone, the game just ...

Cuphead isn't the only indie darling that you can play in a Tesla. With an impending "holiday software update," Tesla owners are getting a Stardew Valley port and a "[full self-driving] sneak preview." Honestly, it's not that weird. No weir...

Stardew Valley recently welcomed its big 1.4 update on PC (which Jordan eloquently referred to as a mini-expansion), and now it's ready to play on consoles according to creator ConcernedApe. In a later message, the creator confirm...

A lot is going on in Stardew Valley's 1.4 update, so much so that it's easy to overlook some of the new content and tweaks even if you run down the whole list. After several late nights spent toiling away on my neglected farm, I figured it ...

This morning, my eyes wanted to stay permanently shut. I stayed up late playing Stardew Valley again, this time thanks to version 1.4, a wide-reaching update that breathes new life into the game. My main save file isn't even on PC – I...

Simulation games mean a hell of a lot to me. Ever since a young age, no matter what was going on in my life, I could lose myself in a good simulator. The Sim series hooked me quickest of all, particularly some of the more out-there marvels ...

The so-called "everything" update for Stardew Valley is now playable on PC and Mac, and after reading the 1.4 patch notes, I feel like I need to hire a personal assistant and tell them to "clear my schedule." I've sunk an unreasonable amoun...
