Analyst firm ‘Superdata’ revealed that Chucklefish’s indie farming simulation role-playing game, Stardew Valley, has sold over 3.5 million copies. Stardew Valley initially hit the PC on February 26th, 2016, and came to Xbox One and PS4 on December 14th, 2016. The game also hit Nintendo Switch in October 2017.
Now while Superdata did not reveal the exact number of sold copies, we can take a look at Steamspy in order to get an idea of how many the PC sales actually are. And according to Steamspy’s data, the Steam version has sold 3.5 million copies.
As always, Steamspy’s data are not 100% accurate. Still, and even if we take into account its margin of error, the Steam version appears to have sold over 3.4 million copies. Not only that, but the game has not received any free weekend, meaning that these are all legitimate sales.
It’s worth noting that Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone, creator of Stardew Valley, will release a new multiplayer mode for his indie title in 2018!
John is the founder and Editor in Chief at DSOGaming. He is a PC gaming fan and highly supports the modding and indie communities. Before creating DSOGaming, John worked on numerous gaming websites. While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”

Also worth noting is that Stardew Valley is available DRM free on various stores so there may be even more copies sold on PC if you factor that in.
I bought it on GOG, so… I’ma go and say the number should actually be higher.
This also means that’s very easy to pirate the game but that hasn’t stopped it from selling well.
I have pirated it first (i am not into games with this kind of graphic).
After two hours of playing, i bought the game on Steam, totally worth it.
It’s funny but it’s true that sometimes piracy generates sales instead of the opposite being true. You probably wouldn’t have ever bought the game had you not been able to try it for free. That’s what free demos used to be for but few Developers bother with demos anymore.
Paging Kim Kardashian West……..
How have 3.5 million copies been sold for PC when we’re all pirates? lol
Still falling for the most obvious ruseman in the universe?
You know he doesn’t actually care about any of this, right?
Here, this image shows you how to properly deal with KKW:

You’re probably right about him not even believing what he continues to spew. I know feeding a troll is bad but in over 30 years of being online I have never been bothered by anyone enough to put them on ignore.
It amazes me how patient John has been with this guy though. He even calls John a pedo. On any other site he would have been banned for that.
KKK…I mean KKW is a trolling pirate. Moving on.
But… but… piracy… pc…
