Stardew Valley - Switch Version Releasing Thursday (5th October)

Speaking as a PC owner, it’s staggeringly good.

Genuinely one of my favourite games in years and a real gem for Switch owners.
 
All these games...

Will pick this up on Thursday and hopefully we also get a Physical release at some point in the future. Guess it's time to buy an SD Card.
 
Never played this, not sure what to expect? Best to go in blind i guess but im not sure if its my kinda thing.
It's like if Harvest Moon and EarthBound and Animal Crossing had a baby. Farming, community sim, dungeon crawling, quirky humor, etc.
 
Not sure why you'd do that. The publisher was pretty vocal on Twitter for the last month saying it was coming very soon.

Bought it on Prime Day during a pricing error when it was $7 or so. Price was just too good. Didn't get around to it til now. Oh well, guess I'll play on my couch.
 
I thought this was supposed to launch with multiplayer? Switch was announced to have the multiplayer exclusitivity first.
 
I am not a Switch owner(yet) or a fan of Stardew Valley, but I feel pretty safe in saying this is exactly the kind of game that will kill on the Switch. Target demo x 9000. Good stuff.
 
This game is going to make the wait for Animal Crossing Switch a whole lot more bearable. I mean obviously SV is a great game in its own right, but I get the feeling AC on Switch is going to be absolutely insane.
 
This is the first time I heard of this game having dungeon crawling....

The dungeon crawling was one of the first things I knew about it.

Not that it's something unique to Stardew Valley, several Harvest Moon games have featured dungeons of a sort before Rune Factory was a thing.
 
I thought this was supposed to launch with multiplayer? Switch was announced to have the multiplayer exclusitivity first.

Switch is getting the multiplayer before the other two consoles, but it's not ready yet. It'll also be beta-tested on the PC/Mac/Linux version of the game before it hits any consoles.
 
Gotta finish up M+R so i can hop on this. Been waiting too long for the port.

A shame it wont launch with multiplayer tho
