PC/Mac/Linux Stardew Valley (Chucklefish Games)

‘Stardew Valley’ is adding a game-changing new farm in update 1.6

All week, developer ConcernedApe has been sharing daily details of the new features coming to the 1.6 update. This is the first major change to the game since 2020. We’ve had news of bug fixes and the ability to drink mayonnaise, but the biggest addition is a new farm type: the Meadowlands Farm. This comes with “chewy blue grass that animals love” as well as a coop and two chickens right from the start.

This is very handy for all players, as no farm type gives people such a clear bonus right at the beginning. Normally, to get a coop, players have to pay 4,000 gold, 300 wood, 100 stone, and wait three in-game days for it to be built.

This is huge news for speedrunners, as having free, instant access to what typically requires a lot of work to build could completely change the path speedrunners take. As it stands, some speedruns wait until Monday 15, Fall, to buy the coop, and then wait three more days for it to be finished. Starting with it would mean this step could be skipped entirely.
