Farm Together Gets Local Co-Op In New Update

Farm Together's new update comes out on console today exclusively on Xbox One (these changes are already in the PC version), and adds in local co-op for up to four players. While split-screen is the largest new addition in this update, it also comes with a slew of new items for your farm and general bug fixes. According to the developer post on Reddit, the game is getting these new items:

• House decorations: Wall partition, big Speaker
• 4 New Clothings
• New boy piercing and earrings
• Monocle glasses
• 3 New Rock, Paper, Scissors emotes
• New dirt ground tile
• New fish: Perch, Sea Bream, and Snapper
• New flowers: Green Tea, Purple Daffodil
• New building: Farmhands Union

And these bug fixes:

• Fixed photo mode showing enqueued move/recycle tiles
• Should have fixed players stuck in place when joining their own farm after leaving another one.
• Fixed "Quests" permissions level not working properly.
• Fixed being unable to see pet/tractor customization items from other players if you didn't have them unlocked.
• Fixed being unable to control the pause menu with a controller if pausing while moving down-right.
• Fixed time not advancing at the proper pace (depending on the framerate, seasons would take 5-20 seconds longer than expected).
• Fixed House/Farm Shop windows breaking when quickly hitting the cancel/open shop buttons.

Farm Together is a surprisingly fun and relaxing game to play with your friends, so split-screen co-op is a welcome addition. There's still no word yet on when these updates will find their way to the PlayStation 4 or Switch versions of the game.
