One Step From Eden

A major update went out this week for One Step From Eden, a mashup of strategic deck-building and real-time action with rogue-like elements. The game should now be at version 1.5.

This week’s update includes a bunch of additional content, including new spells, new artifacts, Saffron boss fight, an easy mode, and more. You can find the full patch notes below.

The big 1.5 update for Stardew Valley is here on Switch. It should be going live automatically, though you can also force the patch to download via the system’s home menu.
