UpdatingStardew Valleyon the Xbox One and Xbox Series X / S is also pretty simple. And again, you only need to follow this simple sequence of steps to get it downloaded and installed. This is primarily based on how the Xbox One menu works, but it’s a similar process on Xbox Series X / S.
Turn on your Xbox console.
Navigate to Network settings from the Settings menu. From here, tap on Set Up Wireless Network, then navigate to the one you’d like to connect to.
For Series X / S it’s Profile & system -> Settings -> General -> Network settings.

Turn on your PlayStation console.
From the start menu, navigate over to Settings in the utility bar.
On the PlayStation 4 console, the next selection you’ll tap on is Set Up Network Connection. On the PlayStation 5, however, there’s an extra step where you’ll need to tap another Settings icon before you see Set Up Network Connection.
From here, both work pretty similarly. Tap on WiFi, and then select Easy and navigate through the menu to your network of choice. Or you’re able to just plug an Ethernet cable into the back of your PlayStation console to hardwire the connection.
