Stardew Valley has sold over 30 million copies

As fans eagerly await the release of ConcernedApe’s new game – Haunted Chocolatier – many are continuing to purchase and play the indie studio’s previous title: Stardew Valley. Having released back in 2016, the farming game has only continued to get better and better – with the release date for its upcoming 1.6 update coinciding with the announcement that the game has now sold 30 million copies.

Making the announcement on its website, Stardew Valley’s developer – ConcernedApe – revealed that “As of February 2024, Stardew Valley has sold over 30 million copies across all platforms, with over 19 million copies sold on PC alone.”

This makes Stardew Valley easily one of the best selling games of all time, currently sharing its position with Diablo III and 2019’s Modern Warfare reboot.

Interestingly, Stardew Valley reached 20 million copies sold back in May of 2022, meaning it has shifted an additional 10 million units in less than two years.

With update 1.6 set to arrive on the 19th of March, it will be interesting to see just how long the game will continue to sell for – and whether we will be reporting on its next major milestone even sooner than expected.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
