After months of waiting, the time has finally come, at least for PC gamers. ConcernedApe is releasing Stardew Valley Update 1.6 today. As the developer has repeatedly shared some of the update’s features over the past few months, the community rush tonight is likely to be correspondingly large. In case you haven’t noticed everything, we’ll now share the most important information with you
All about farm life
After ConcernedApe introduced the Beach Farm with Update 1.5, things are now getting cozy with the Meadowland Farm This has blue grass for animals and lets you start with a chicken coop and two chickens.
If you’re going to deal with chickens, then you should also deal with their products. So after update 1.6 you’ll be able to drink mayonnaise. ConcernedApe also confirmed that jams, preserves, wines and juices will now take on the color of the corresponding ingredients. You can now also make horseradish juice (yum…?).
If you’re struggling with storage space for your belongings, there will also be a large chest
The beloved pets of Stardew Valley
After previously only being able to put fancy accessories on our horses’ heads, with Stardew Valley Update 1.6 it’s also our cats and dogs turn. ConcernedApe recently published some cute screenshots If your beloved four-legged friends are blocking your way to bed, you can now make it easier for them to move If you “push” against them, they will now clear the way after 0.75 seconds

There is also new information about winter. After ConcernedApe had already announced correspondingly warm fashion for the NPCs, he also presented the new New Year’s Eve celebration. This seems to be celebrated on the beach with fireworks and a small meal. Visitors from outside the village also seem to be attending the festivities, similar to the village festival in the fall.
Last but not least, ConcernedApe confirmed yesterday evening that Stardew Valley Update 1.6 will support a lot of different mods. Although he recommends playing the update without mods, he does not want to impose any rules on his community. We hope you enjoy exploring Update 1.6.
