On February 26, Stardew Valley celebrated its seventh anniversary since the game's original launch on PC. To mark the occasion, creator and developer Eric «ConcernedApe» Barone shared a brief but heartfelt message on social media and on the Stardew Valley Steam page, where he also gave a glimpse at the near future of the game.
