Skytree 2.0 Patch and Stardew SE | Posted at 10:36 AM 03 February 2017A new patch for Harvest Moon: Skytree Village was released on Tuesday. Players will be prompted to download the latest update when starting their Skytree Village game. The free support patch will update the game from version 1.01 to version 2.00 and requires 36 blocks of SD space. According to Ceecee's announcement, the patch will "ease the severity of all storms and other conditions which are damaging to crops." This was an issue for players due to the number of storms and fog that damage crop health and affecting the chance of crop mutations. Some weather was so detrimental that whole patches of crops were destroyed despite players trying their best with fertilizer and watering to keep crop health high. Blossom, I think you may be the only one that likes the foggy weather in Skytree Village... 505 Games has announced that they will be releasing a physical retail collector's edition of Stardew Valley on April 11 in the USA. The special edition comes with a copy of the game, either the Playstation 4 or XBox One version, a town map, CD soundtrack, and mini player's guide. The packaged deal will retail for $29.99. In the UK the SE is expected to be released on April 13. You can read the announcement on the official 505 Games Twitter:
