Stardew Valley is a truly delightful game. I honestly don’t think I could ever tire of it. It’s endlessly fun, cosy, wholesome … I could go on. That being said, while I can’t see myself ever getting bored of Stardew Valley, it doesn’t mean I’ll turn down getting an extra slice of this delectable world.
If you haven’t yet checked out the Stardew Valley Expanded mod, I highly urge you to. Created by modder FlashShifter, the mod does exactly what you’re hoping it does. It adds a wealth of new content - including dozens of new characters, six new marriage candidates, several map changes, the addition of a brand new continent, new events, plus a variety of new fish, crops, and furniture. This is easily the best Stardew Valley mod out there and it’s got the figures to back that sentiment up. As reported by Polygon, Stardew Valley Expanded has had over 1.8 million unique downloads so far.
Take a look at the game in action below.
FlashShifter, real name Devin Hedegaard, first noticed Stardew Valley when he returned home from college and found his brother playing it on the PlayStation 4. He then decided to try it out for himself and well, as they say, the rest is history. After reaching 100% completion on the game, Hedegaard turned to mods but said, “I still wanted more, but there wasn’t anything left so I started teaching myself how to mod”.

The Expanded mod was eventually released, attracting a large fan base and a 19,000 strong Discord server. Hedegaard told Polygon, “There’s a great community here, and there’s so much more you can do with the game once you get into it,” adding, “I’m learning so much on how to handle the issues that pop up when it comes to like the game breaking or the mods breaking and figuring out what needs to be fixed.”
The creator is hard at work on the mod’s next update, with certain features set to be added that have been in the works for a whopping three years. If you want to join in on all the fun, there’s good news: you can. Simply download Stardew Valley Expanded from NexusMods now.
