Stardew Valley has rolled out a hotfix update to the farming sim game to address a recent issue resulting in game crashes. Since its 2016 debut, the beloved farming game has been credited as one of the biggest titles in the explosion in popularity of farming sims within the indie game market. Stardew Valley offers a wealth of content for players beyond their in-game farms, with dungeon-like caves to explore, a romance system, and plenty of diverse and unique NPCs to meet. Now, a new fix is addressing a major issue with a recent update.

Poncle has announced plans to release Vampire Survivors for PlayStation consoles, as well as new Contra-themed DLC for the game.
The base game and all its DLC packs will be available for PS4 and PS5 this summer, the studio said on Wednesday.
Vampire Survivors is a roguelike shoot ’em up which sees players choosing one of numerous characters, who then automatically attack as the player fights through waves of monsters with the aim being to survive for as long as possible.
The game was released for PC, Mac, Xbox consoles and mobile in 2022, before hitting Switch last year.
It was well received by critics, earnings it scores ranging from 86 to 95 on review aggregations site Metacritic.
Poncle has also revealed the latest Vampire Survivors DLC, Operation Guns. It will cost $2.49 / €2.49 / £1.99 when it’s released for all current platforms on May 9.
It said: “Operation Guns embraces the visceral simplicity of classic Contra, with build-focused Characters that encourage min-maxing and stat manipulation, a tonne of weapons (we’re talking 20 including evolutions!), and a difficulty curve that combines quintessentially arcade-hard gameplay with the original Vampire Survivors formula.”
Vampire Survivors won Action Game of the Year at last year’s DICE Awards, as well as the Best Game and Best Design prizes at the BAFTA Games Awards.
