svgOct 12, 2018Mobile GameNewsAlly

[dropcap]T[/dropcap]he solo developer of Stardew Valley (Eric Barone of ConcernedApe) has recently made an exciting announcement. Stardew Valley will soon be available on iOS and Android! The game will be coming to iOS first, and will be released on the app store (where it can be pre-ordered) on the 24th October. The mobile version of the game is being overseen by London-based studio The Secret Police.

About Stardew Valley:

Stardew Valley is a Harvest Moon-reminiscent RPG farming simulation with pixel graphics. Developed by ConcernedApe and published by Chucklefish, the game was very well received. It currently holds a 10/10 rating on Steam where it also has ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ reviews.

Some of the game’s features include:
  • Raising animals, growing crops and improving your farm
  • Improving skills in 5 different areas (farming, mining, combat, fishing, and foraging)
  • A variety of complex characters, places, enigmas, and secrets to discover
  • Diversity in character customization and dating
  • Over two hours of original music.
The game is already available to play on a wide variety of platforms including:
  • Microsoft Windows
  • Linux
  • Mac OS
  • PS4
  • Xbox One
  • Nintendo Switch
  • PS Vita

About Stardew Valley for mobile:

Unfortunately, online multiplayer farming will not be available on iOS and Android. The port will, however, include all of the single player content from the recent 1.3 PC update.

The mobile versions have been optimized for touch screens, and contain a new UI, new controls, and a new menu system. Additionally, upon the game’s launch, players will be able to transfer their PC save data to iOS via iTunes.

Priced at $7.99 and with no in-app purchase options, the port is seemingly good value for money.

Eric Barone has said that the Android version of the game is nearly complete. He has also reassured gamers that work on multiplayer updates for consoles will be unaffected. This is because the console updates are being handled by teams separate from those working on the mobile versions.
