Fields of Mistria: revision #19

+2632 / −0 characters

**Fields of Mistria** is a nostalgic farming and life-sim RPG by NPC Studio, set in the valley town of Mistria. Players build up a farm — farming, fishing, mining and crafting to help revitalize the community — while getting to know more than 30 villagers, pursuing romance, unlocking magic, and exploring ancient ruins.[^1] It launched in Steam early access on 5 August 2024.[^1]

## Gameplay

The early-access build already offers 60+ hours of play across all four seasons, more than 700 craftable items, and over 5,000 lines of unique character dialogue.[^2] Magic weaves through both farming and adventuring, and combat awaits in the ruins beneath the town.[^1]

## Development and release

NPC Studio self-publishes the game and prices it at $13.99, with no plans to raise the price for 1.0.[^2] The full 1.0 launch — announced at Summer Game Fest 2026's [[Wholesome Games|Wholesome Direct]] — is set for 5 August 2026 on PC, adding marriage and children and the conclusion of the town-restoration storyline.[^3]

## Reception

Fields of Mistria topped 100,000 downloads in its first week of early access,[^4] reaching the top of Steam's Top Sellers chart within its first days and holding a 98% positive rating from over 2,400 reviews a week in.[^5] Press shorthand for its appeal — "[[Stardew Valley]] x Sailor Moon" — captures its place in the modern [[cozy-game|cozy]] farming-sim boom.[^4]
