Earlier this year, Concerned Ape shared new details about its upcoming Version 1.5 update for Stardew Valley – which will finally add splitscreen co-op to the game. That’s not all that the patch will bring, however!

The developer has now shared that the game’s Version 1.5 update will also add new options when players start a fresh farm! Namely, players will be able to settle on a completely new “Beach Farm” location, as well as tweak several aspects of the game with a new “Advance Game Options” section.

If you're a seasoned player thinking of starting a new farm when 1.5 comes out, I'd like to highlight a couple of new features. There will be a new farm type, "Beach Farm", and a new "Advanced Game Options" menu, from which you can adjust some aspects of the game: pic.twitter.com/iMnw2uGLEO

For now, Concerned Ape has not shared a release window for this update. We’ll report back as we hear more in the future.
