Stardew Valley to Release in December
A new RPG like game is coming to Xbox One on December 14. What is that game you ask? Well its called Stardew Valley. You start with an overgrown plot of land, a few hand-me-down tools, and a small amount of money. What you use them for is up to you.
Stardew Valley is a country-life role playing game in which you make a new life for yourself by living off the land and getting to know the local townspeople. There are many ways to find success… try your hand at farming, fishing, mining, foraging, fighting monsters, and raising animals.
While making a living is an important part of your new life, you’ll also want to make friends with the locals. As you get to know people, you’ll learn more about their personalities and stories. You can even get married and have kids!
The lead developer spent over four years developing the game, inspired by games that he loved as a child such as Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing. Although the idea of a “farming RPG” might seem odd at first, the games that gave him inspiration were very addictive and had a heartwarming charm that stuck with him. With Stardew Valley, his goal was to recreate that special feeling and bring it to modern platforms.
