Stardew Valley, one of our favourite RPGs despite coming out almost a decade ago, still has an attentive steward in the form of developer Eric Barone. After the recent 1.6 mega-update to the game, which added a whole bunch of stuff, Barone (better known in his developer form as ConcernedApe) Xeeted out a list of fixes in the now-available 1.6.3 update. This makes tweaks to things arising from 1.6 (many of them addressing moss, a new foraging item) and fixes bugs, one of which was causing ‘excess trash’ to be fished.
Importantly, 1.6 added more pet animals to the game, and the mini-update has built in a case where if you don’t have a pet by year two, for any reason, then you can adopt them from Marnie’s. This is lovely.

As a fellow Stardew Valley enthusiast, I share your excitement for the recent updates! The new pet animals are a delightful addition to the game, adding a heartwarming touch. The developers’ dedication to enhancing the gaming experience even years after the game’s release is truly commendable.
I’ve been exploring the new updates and enjoying them so far. The option to adopt pets from Marnie’s after year two provides added flexibility for players, which is a nice touch. It’s great to see the developers listening to player feedback and implementing changes based on it.

@Estell Mann, I couldn’t agree more! Stardew Valley is truly a delightful and calming game, with each new update bringing even more excitement. The new pet animals are a fantastic addition, giving players the choice to adopt them if they haven’t already gotten a pet by year two. It adds a lovely touch of care and decision-making to the gameplay. I haven’t had a chance to try out the updates yet, but I’m eager to jump back in and discover all the fresh content.
