For the four of you who don’t already own it

During this evening’s ID@Xbox showcase,Stardew Valleydeveloper Eric Barone announced that the farming sim would be coming to Xbox Game Pass this autumn.

At this point, Stardew Valley feels ubiquitous. It has sold millions of copies and its regularly discounted, so there’s a fairly good chance that you already own it. The real appeal of it coming to Game Pass, for me, is that it should make it easier to convince friends to play it co-operatively.

“I’m happy to announce that Stardew Valley will be coming to Game Pass,” said Barone. “There’s not like a set release date yet, but it’s probably sometime in the fall. I really hope that it brings Stardew Valley to a lot more people and a lot more people get to experience the world of Stardew Valley.”

Barone has continued to update Stardew since launch, with thelast major update being 1.5 in December 2020, which added beach farms, new endgame content and split-screen co-op.

Games come and go from Xbox Game Pass each month, but the list of stone cold classics on there is looking pretty good right now. Hades arriveslater this week, for example.
