Summary

  • Stardew Valley has become one of the most popular games in recent years, with creator Eric Barone regularly updating the game with new features.
  • However, when asked why he doesn’t simply make a sequel, he responded that he finds it more satisfying to continue updating the existing game rather than starting from scratch.
  • He leaves open the possibility of a Stardew Valley 2 but is also interested in pursuing other projects, such as his upcoming game, Haunted Chocolatier. -Barone is not motivated by money and seems to prioritise his creative interests in future projects.
  • Players are eager for a sequel, although it remains to be seen whether Barone will eventually focus on developing Stardew Valley 2 or whether he will continue to expand the original game.
  • The recent success of Monster Hunter Rise has demonstrated the popularity of Stardew Valley’s genre, and a sequel may perform well.
