That is, fairly frankly, big! Gamers have been asking for extra romanceable characters for years now, and the one new additions for the reason that sport’s launch have been Shane and Emily, added means, means again in 1.1. We do not but know who these two thriller companions can be, although. It is doable that ConcernedApe is including two model new characters to the sport, however it’s additionally doable that current characters that gamers have needed to marry for a very long time will lastly get their due. I am considering of parents like Marnie, Sandy, Linus, Clint, and even the elusive Wizard. There’s additionally a contingent of parents who wish to break up Robin and Demetrius, however that looks as if it could trigger some drama, to say the least.
Whoever it’s, we all know they’re going to get further scenes for coronary heart occasions, numerous new relationship-focused dialogue, and their very own distinctive space on the farm. So whether or not these are new or previous characters, we’re positive to see some cool new story content material surrounding them.
Stardew Valley is popping 10 years previous, and we’re celebrating with a bumper crop of tales.
