brought a lot of new features with it that haven't been seen in previous games. The physics system that's used for Link's new Ultrahand ability is smooth and not like any systems he's used in the past. However, one particular system uses items in ways that destroy them, so having a steady supply of strong items to work with becomes important, especially against tougher enemies and bosses. Considering that weapons are subject to a durability system, Link goes through a lot of items throughout the duration of his journey to save Hyrule once more.

A lot was going on in the Stardew Valley community over April Fool's Day, and it all comes back to drinking mayonnaise... again.

Hello! Welcome to the 321st edition of the WoW Economy Weekly Wrap-up! This week we celebrate a player reaching 100 million gold and how they went about it.

When Stardew Valley first came out in 2016, it was positioned as a Harvest Moon-like. The comparison was the only way at the time to describe a low-stakes farming simulator with a village of locals to meet and perhaps marry. It’s difficult to remember that now, in an era where “cozy gaming” has taken on a life of its own and “wholesome” games have their own showcases with hundreds of thousands of viewers, but Stardew was released into a different world. And then it made this one. Its latest major content release, the 1.6 update, is a testament to the game’s longevity in the genre that it shaped.

Stardew Valley 1.6 is jam-packed with new content to delve into and fresh secrets to discover, and one of the best ones is seemingly a direct reference to one of the glitches removed in the very same update. 

Any adventuring party is only as good as its members, and the main party of Delicious in Dungeon, both the manga by Ryōko Kui and the Studio Trigger adaptation simulcasting on Netflix, is no exception. There’s the awkward leader, Laios, a human fighter; prickly lockpick Chilchuck, a half-foot rogue; the picky Marcille, an elven mage; and Senshi, a hermetic chef and a dwarven fighter.

Blizzard have buffed the right side of the map in Plunderstorm!

Stardew Valleymight be primarily known as a farming sim where you can also romance the village locals, but there’s way more to do than just plant crops. In fact, there is so much to do that it can sometimes be overwhelming to plan out your days. Do you go fishing or to the mines? Do you stay at home or explore a new island? The best part is that there are a lot of ways to play the game, and none of them are wrong. Some just might be more preferable than others.

The past week has seen Stardew Valley players hungrily exploring the wealth of new content, bug fixes, and Easter eggs that have made their way to the PC version of the beloved farming RPG courtesy of the newly released 1.6 update.

A Stardew Valley player has discovered a new get-rich-quick scheme thanks to a new item introduced in the 1.6 update. 

Part of the Patch 10.2.6 updates includes the addition of many new meta-achievement mounts. One of them is an addition to an old achievement, Into the Storm, which now rewards the Coralscale Salamanther mount. This achievement was added at the start of Dragonflight and requires you to do some tasks under Elemental Storms, including killing 200 enemies under each elemental storm in each of Dragonflight's original zones.

Like many people excited for the newest Stardew Valley update, I rebooted my old save file that I hadn’t touched in a couple of years to get ready for new content.

Developer ConcernedApe has said that work on his next game, Haunted Chocolatier, will continue when Stardew Valley's 1.6 update is complete.

A day before Stardew Valley’s 1.6 update release date, developer Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone posted a line from the update’s patch notes on X (formerly Twitter): “You can now drink mayonnaise.” The Stardew Valley community was shook. It’s just… why? Once the update launched on March 19, the answer became clear: It’s actually a pretty good early game item thanks to Stardew Valley’s new Meadowlands Farm, which lets you start your farm with two chickens.

Recently Pocket Gamer Connects celebrated its tenth anniversary as part of the annual flagship event Pocket Gamer Connects London. However, we're not stopping there, as next up is The Very Big Indie Pitch at Pocket Gamer Connects San Francisco 2024.

From battling mobs and crafting armor to exploring new biomes and more, there's a lot of content to explore in Minecraft.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is a huge game with dozens of different trinkets and resources to collect, with one of the most sought-after being the Jasper jewel.

Your drop in Plunderstorm is very important so here's the best drop locations on the Arathi Highlands map!

I wake up in the morning and immediately get into my mech; I never leave home without it. An unnecessarily cheery voice in my ear tells me that it’s a beautiful day and maybe I should water my crops. I attach a big hose to my mech’s arm and water my berries. Then, I walk out into the giant meadow where I’ve made my home, feed the local wildlife, and wander over to a huge, mysterious door. When I’m done, I go home, leave my mech, and crawl back into bed for a good night’s sleep. I think about the upgrades I need to collect resources for and the areas I have to explore, but I know I can take my time.

One of the most wholesome stories about Stardew Valley's 1.6 update launch was that the developer behind the farming sim's most beloved modding project, Stardew Valley Expanded, helped make it happen. And yet that might not have come to be if FlashShifter hadn't fallen on hard times after an unfortunate brush with car theft.

Stardew Valley players are trying to start an extremely cursed speedrunning challenge, and it involves them chugging a jar of mayonnaise as fast as possible. 

Farming the right materials to Ascend Acheron in may require a bit of work, though all of it could be pre-farmed well before her arrival in Version 2.1. Acheron is a new 5-star Lightning unit that follows the Path of the Nihility. Her specialty is applying debuffs on enemies and, with that, dealing an immense amount of damage based on how many debuffs those opponents have on them – which makes her a fantastic asset in a team with Kafka or Black Swan in , for instance.

A revamp to the Codex of Power Legendary Aspect system is coming to Diablo 4 in Season 4! Blizzard emphasized an extensive update and overhaul to many of the systems that make up Diablo 4, and the update to the Codex of Power and Legendary Aspects does not disappoint.

Using Chiori’s best build in can significantly improve her performance as a Geo sub-DPS and support on the field, which in turn results in extra damage output and less trouble from opponents. The 5-star unit is one of the new pieces of content added with Version 4.5 in mid-March. The character had previously been introduced as an NPC in Version 4.3’s flagship event but is now fully playable.

Since launch in January, Palworld players have been begging for the survival game to add an essential colony sim feature: the ability to precisely assign workers to different tasks. In a new image posted to Discord by community manager Bucky, developer Pocketpair has teased just that. Have a look:

Who wouldn't want their own frontier world with just your friends, an agricultural mech, and a chatty satellite AI for company, setting out to build yourself a life on a planet untouched by human activity — but possessed of a deeper mystery? That's the pitch on Lightyear Frontier, a cozy crafting exploration game with a unique mech-based twist to its farming. I mean, mechs for civilian use are hardly a new concept, but I can't actually remember a game giving it a proper shot like this. Lightyear Frontier does its best at its Early Access launch, delivering a fun romp around an alien world that's a bit short on story but goes long on customization and decoration.

For a game made by a single person, Stardew Valley has an unbelievable amount of content already. Despite that, years after launch, we’re all still eagerly anticipating yet another content update coming to the game that will bring it to version 1.6. This update was announced in April 2023 but ConcernedApe has been rather tight-lipped on the full scope of features and additions this update will bring. With so many possibilities and rumors floating around, we’ve collected only the freshest bits of info you need to know about what you can look forward to.
