This means that console and mobile players will have access to the modern animal-focused farm in patch 1.6, a three-day Spring Festival, two other mini-festivals, and a whole host of smaller fixes. But everyone, on different platforms, will get a little something when Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone launches update 1.6.9 includes a whole host of quality of life updates, balance changes, and bug fixes. One of the more electrifying modern updates for everyone is the “Lost Item Shop” coming to Stardew Valleymysterious forest area; Stardew Valley it has some items that can only be obtained once, so if you accidentally give one of these items away or sell it, you were out of luck before. A secret shop will appear overnight after an item is lost and will allow the player to redeem anything they have lost – things like a Stardew hero trophy, Emily’s magic shoes, a soda machine, a bear statue, a Junimo Plus, or a standing geode. (If you’re playing multiplayer and someone loses an item, anyone can buy it back, according to the patch notes.)
Another useful quality of life change is that items dropped into bodies of water will briefly float, so you’ll have a chance to save them instead of falling straight to the bottom, out of reach forever.
