Stardew Valley is one of the biggest indie releases of recent memory. The PC version of update 1.5 of Stardew Valley released recently, but the console version has yet to go live. However, according to a recent tweet from the game's developer, the console version of update 1.5 could arrive as soon as the end of January.

There is so much in update 1.5 of Stardew Valley, making it the biggest update yet, including a new Beach Farm type, new advanced game options, local split-screen, and much more. Unfortunately, that fun is not yet ready for consoles, or mobile, for that matter. But developer Eric Barone (@Concerned Ape on Twitter) took to social media to share an update with the fans and let them know that the console version will be ready in early 2021. There is a chance it could be ready by the end of January even, but he isn't guaranteeing that.

The mobile version of Stardew Valley has no timetable yet. Each version of the game has its own pros and cons. Having Stardew Valley in the palm of one's hand is a huge plus, which is why the iOS/Android version is so nice. But the culmination of all of the console and mobile/portable elements may be with the Switch version is the best way to play Stardew Valley. Regardless, mobile users will have to wait a bit longer.

Of course, console players have so much to look forward to with the new update with the Beach Farm, split-screen, new options, and more.
