'''Multiplayer''' is an optional game mode in which 1–4 players can join the same world through split-screen, over LAN, or by IP address. Multiplayer is available on the PC (Linux/Mac/Windows) and console (PS4/Switch/Xbox One) versions, but not on mobile (iOS/Android) or PS Vita.

The player who created the world is the "host", and the other players are "farmhands". The host has the save file on their system, and can play it in both multiplayer and single-player mode. If the host isn't online or the farm isn't currently open to other players, then farmhands can't access the world or their characters in that world. Farm ownership can't be transferred to farmhands without [[Modding:Index|modding]].

==Player Limit==
 +
The default limit for farmhands is 3 (4 players total), but can be changed on PC (without having to install any mods) by manually changing the games config files. <ref>[https://twitter.com/ConcernedApe/status/1395244189781151745 Tweeted by ConcernedApe]</ref>

 +
To change the limit, find the following file:
 +
 +
* On Windows
 +
** <code>%AppData%\StardewValley\startup_preferences</code>
 +
* On Linux
 +
** <code>~/.config/StardewValley/startup_preferences</code>
 +
 +
Change the value of <code>&lt;playerLimit&gt;-1&lt;/playerLimit&gt;</code> to the amount of players that you want to allow in your games, such as to <code>&lt;playerLimit&gt;10&lt;/playerLimit&gt;</code> to allow 10 players.
 +
 +
A value of <code>-1</code> uses the default amount of players.
