Stardew Valley 1.6 has finally arrived on consoles and mobile
Special Orders board in Stardew Valley.

Stardew Valley console and mobile players will want to start a new farm soon. The long-awaited 1.6 update is finally available for all platforms on Monday, bringing with it a new farm type, more dialogue with NPCs, new events, and too many other things to count.

The 1.6 update launched for PC players on March 19, so console and mobile players have been waiting almost eight months for the release. In July, developer Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone said in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that it was taking longer than expected. The following month, he wrote in another post that the ports have been the "primary focus" for the team. He had even stopped working on the Stardew follow-up Haunted Chocolatier to get the console and mobile updates finished.

How to get and use Prize Tickets in Stardew Valley
Lewis' Prize Machine in Stardew Valley.

One of the many additions to the 1.6 update for Stardew Valley is Prize Tickets. This seven-year-old farming simulator has continued to gain and keep popularity among its adoring fans, and the game's biggest update yet brought along a new bookseller, a secret Meowmere weapon, and now this mysterious collectible item.

Any players jumping back into Stardew Valley since the 1.6 update released on console and mobile, or anyone playing this indie hit for the first time, may be confused about how these Prize Tickets can be used. Not only that, but it isn't obvious where players can receive them in the first place. Here's how you can acquire and use these Prize Tickets in Stardew Valley.
How to find Prize Tickets in Stardew Valley
Players can earn Prize Tickets in Stardew Valley by completing Special Orders and quests. You can also receive them by winning the Egg Festival and Festival of Ice, alongside finishing the Spirit's Eve maze. Although you don't win them, you can spend 1,000 star tokens at the Stardew Valley Fair to get some Prize Tickets.

PS5 and DualSense art.

The newest generation of consoles has been going through a bit of a change recently, with them now having both a digital-only option and a physical disc option, and the Sony PlayStation 5 is no different. In fact, we've even seen two new versions, the Slim and the Pro, further making things a little bit more complicated. Because of that, there aren't a ton of great deals on PS5 consoles right now, since the market is still settling, but we have found a few great renewed offers that are worth looking at.

That said, if the options below don't quite do it for you, be sure to check out these gaming console deals instead, and if you already have a PS5, then do check out these PS5 game deals to help buff up your library.
