The most frustrating aspect of Haunted Chocolatier, ConcernedApe’s second major project, is the lack of information about its release date. Building on the foundation set by Stardew Valley, the game is expected to feature similar aesthetics and gameplay while introducing new narrative and mechanical elements. This has naturally piqued the interest of Stardew Valley fans, especially those who have already explored all its content over the last eight years. The anticipation is high, but the chances of Haunted Chocolatier launching in early access appear slim, despite the trend of indie games like Hades 2 doing so.
