Stardew Valley players only want one thing, and it’s for Eric Barone a.k.a. ConcernedApe to work on Haunted Chocolatier. However, Barone just can’t seem to let his first baby go, putting the upcoming project on hold to bash out some updates for Stardew Valley. With Patch 1.6 going live on console and mobile devices only a day ago, the developer could get back to Haunted Chocolatier soon.

However, it seems that Barone is not yet done with Stardew Valley. He has announced that the latest patch for the mobile version featured something that wasn’t announced in the patch notes – a “secret, experimental mobile multiplayer feature.” That’s not all, to access theis secret feature you’re going to have to put in a secret code on the main menu, like the old Konami codes.
Stardew Secret
Barone revealed the secret only yesterday, along with a detailed guide of how to access the multiplayer mode on the game’s mobile version. However, he has warned that the currently available version of the multiplayer mode is experimental, so there will be certain bugs and issues. Also, considering it’s on mobile, a multiplayer session could be “frustrating, under certain scenarios.”
Here’s how to access the Stardew Valley experimental multiplayer mode on mobile:
– On the title screen, you will notice that the “Stardew Valley” logo has four groups of leaves attached to it.
– Tap the leaves in this order: ↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → … Then press the “?” button in the bottom right corner of the screen. (Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, ? )
– Exit the “?” menu. You should now have a co-op button on the title screen.
– In the co-op menu, you will have options to “Host” or “Join”. If you are joining, put in the IP address of the host. If you are hosting, you will have to set up the farm first, and then, if there are cabins available, others should be able to connect to you (they will need your IP address).
He has noted that in order to play the multiplayer mode, all players must be on the same network, via Wi–Fi, hotspot, or a player who is port-forwarding their game.
As for the non-hidden features of patch 1.6, the skill system has received a mastery system, a way to retrieve items you’ve lost, and a ton of other neat features.
Restore your grandfather’s farm to its former glory in Stardew Valley, a charming indie simulation role-playing game developed by Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone. Along the way you’ll meet new friends, romance villagers, and explore deep caves for the materials you’ll need to craft, build, and grow.
