"I might eventually make a Stardew Valley 2," says Eric Barone, but "I just don't care about money" and it's "so much easier" to update the original

Stardew Valley.

I know there are plenty of hardworking Stardew Valley farmers – their bones aching, their knees buckling – who are sick of waiting for creator Eric Barone's upcoming adventure game Haunted Chocolatier, which was first announced four years ago. So I'm sorry to do this, but you deserve to know that there's another game you need to start anticipating: Barone, also known as ConcernedApe, says he might one day make a Stardew Valley sequel.

"I might eventually make a Stardew Valley 2, to be honest" Barone says during a recent episode of comedian Bobby Lee's podcast Tiger Belly.
