Eight years after launching, Stardew Valley just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Update 1.6 arrived yesterday, with enough changes that the patch notes are 7308 words long. It bumps the farm-o-life sim’s co-op player limit to eight, adds hundreds of new items, opens up a new progression system for “powerful perks and items”, adds new events, lets you drink mayonnaise, and so much more that. Best of all, it lets you have more pets. New pets. Pets wearing hats.

This update for Stardew Valley sounds absolutely massive! I can’t believe they added so many new features and items. As a hardcore speedrunner, I wonder how these changes will impact the speedrunning community’s strategies and routes. It’s always exciting to see how updates like this can shake up the meta and push us to discover new techniques. Time to dive in and see how we can optimize our runs with all these new additions!
