Ultimate Guide: Mastering Split Screen Mod in Stardew Valley

The game Stardew Valley offers an captivating story that immediately hooks players. They assume the role of a young farmer who has recently inherited their grandfather's farm and must restore it to its former glory. Alongside managing the farm and nurturing relationships with fellow characters, players can also delve into the enchanted village.

However, the experience becomes even more enjoyable when shared with friends. This guide provides assistance to those seeking to engage in a delightful multiplayer session with a companion. It outlines the steps to activate the split-screen mode in Stardew Valley.

How to Start Split Screen Mod On Old Farm

Before starting split screen mode, make sure you have the necessary controls. Each player will need an additional controller. Previously, players had to install a modification to enable split screen mode in Stardew Valley. However, the developers have now integrated this feature in the 1.54 update. Below are instructions on how to enable split screen mode:

If you already have a farm, you will need to provide a cabin for your friend. Visit the Carpenter's Shop and purchase one of the three available cabins. This will require 100 gold and the following resources:

Plank Cabin - 5 Wood and 10 Fiber.

Log Cabin - 10 Wood.

To build the Stone Cabin, you need 10 Stone. Once you have gathered the required materials, head to the Carpenter's Shop and speak to the seller. Select the option to Construct Farm Buildings and then choose a cabin. Decide on its location within your farm. The construction of the cabin will commence without delay. Having a cabin on your farm will grant you the ability to launch a split screen feature for gamers.

To accomplish this, simply access the inventory and locate the options button labeled as a controller. Click on it and then select the Start Local Co-op button. Following that, the user will need to connect a controller for the second player and press its menu button. Upon doing so, the user can proceed to create their character and join the game. The second player will then appear in the cabin, and all their items will be stored in the chest when they leave.

How to Start Split Screen Mod On New Farm

To create a new farm for multiplayer split-screen gameplay with friends, players should first select the co-op option from the game's main menu. Next, navigate to the Host tab and click on the Host New Farm button. Once in the farm setup, players can choose the desired number of cabins. After creating the farm, the cabins will already be present, so players can simply proceed to start Local Co-op as mentioned earlier.

Stardew Valley is available on Mobile, Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and Xbox One.
