Stardew Valley Creator Promises Free DLC For Life

As a long-time fan of Stardew Valley, I can’t help but be moved by ConcernedApe’s commitment to his community. Eric Barone’s dedication to delivering free content updates for his beloved farming sim is truly inspiring. I’ve been playing this game since its release in 2016 and have witnessed the passion and hard work that goes into every patch. The fact that he’s made this promise on his “honor of his family name” speaks volumes about his character and his commitment to his fans.


Eric Barone, better known as ConcernedApe, has made a promise not to sell paid DLC for Stardew Valley. In a recent X post, he shared updates about the ongoing development of the next patch for this beloved farming simulation game. ConcernedApe admitted that progress is taking longer than expected.

Hikuzu56, a user on X platform, commented on the post expressing that players are willing to endure waits if they receive substantial free content. In response, the developer assured fans he would never charge for DLC or updates, swearing an oath by his family name and encouraging users to hold him accountable if he breaks this promise. This declaration received a large number of approvals in the form of likes and shares.

Stardew Valley was initially launched in 2016, and since then, it has received numerous upgrades. Some of these upgrades were minor enhancements, while others introduced significant new elements for players to explore. All these updates were personally crafted by Barone. The reason behind the gradual release of updates for Stardew Valley might be due to Barone currently focusing on a new project called Haunted Chocolatier.

As a long-time fan of Stardew Valley, I’ve witnessed the game’s evolution over the years, and I must say, this year’s patch 1.6 update has truly breathed new life into my beloved farming simulation game. With each new feature added, every fresh item introduced, and every bug squashed, my experience playing Stardew Valley has been enhanced tenfold. The resurgence of popularity this update brought about is a testament to the dedication of its talented developers, and I’m thrilled to be part of the community that’s reached an all-time high concurrent player count. It’s moments like these that remind me why Stardew Valley remains a cherished pastime in my life.

Stardew Valley is currently available on PC, mobile, and select consoles.
