Developer and publisher NPC Studio announced on Jan. 17, 2025, that their title Fields of Mistria is set to expand with a major update coming March 2025. Alongside the update, the studio also shared a roadmap teasing future additions.

Fields of Mistria is a life and farming simulation RPG. Released in Steam Early Access in August 2024, the game has carved a niche for itself with its 90s anime-inspired aesthetic reminiscent of Sailor Moon and Ranma 1/2.

• A villager named Caldarus, a new character who joins the set of Mistria’s NPCs;
• A gossip mechanic with Elsie, enabling players to uncover NPCs’ favorite gifts;
• Additional NPC dialogues and schedules;
• Fire Seal quest;
• Next Mines Biome;
• New Mines monsters;
• New spells;
• Town growth gets a boost with the Deep Woods area;
• Additional requests added to the Request Board;
• New Festival;
• Increased Renown cap, raised by 20 levels;
• More options to personalize farms and characters with new farmland expansions, furniture, decor, and cosmetics;
• Addition of pets and quality-of-life mechanics like sprinklers and auto-petters.

Looking beyond March, NPC Studio’s roadmap teases marriage and children mechanics. The roadmap also hints at future festivals, additional skills and perks, and even performance optimization to ensure a smoother experience for players.

In the first week, Fields of Mistria was downloaded over 100,000 times, and by the end of the first month, total downloads surpassed 250,000.
