Stardew Valley Saves Will Be Safe After Update 1.6

Eric “Concerned Ape” Barone took to starting on March 19, 2024.

Here’s the announcement, which confirmed a save wipe won’t accompany 1.6.

In a follow-up reply, Concerned Ape noted that the new kind of farm does require someone to restart. That announcement didn’t note what type of farm it will be.

As a reminder, right now someone can choose a standard, beach, forest, four corners, hill-top, riverland, or wilderness farm as of 1.5.

The farm type confirmation is just one kind of new content that will appear. So will storage chest that is larger than ones we’d seen previously in the game.

Stardew Valley is available for the Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, PCs, mobile devices, and the PlayStation Vita. The 1.6 update will launch for PCs on March 19, 2024, and it won’t affect Stardew Valley saves when it does.
