The game is set in Mistria, a pastoral village surrounded by forest and sea, where the player receives a barren piece of land on the condition of helping the village. The main story focuses on rebuilding the village, which was devastated by an earthquake. Players can build their own farm while progressing the village's reconstruction through activities such as crop cultivation, fishing, mining, and crafting. They can also experience quests and festivals that change with the seasons, and interact with over 30 villagers. The developer positions the game as a spiritual successor to farming simulation RPGs from the late 1990s. A notable feature is the ability to learn magic that aids in farming and adventure, plus exploring ancient ruins with combat to find treasure. The game offers over 50 types of crops and over 700 craftable items. Romance is a core element with 12 marriage candidates. The full version adds previously unimplemented content such as marriage and childbirth. Alongside the full release, a Japanese beta version is implemented, about 75% complete, with untranslated parts temporarily displayed in English. The game is available for PC (Steam) at 1,600 yen, with a 10% discount to 1,440 yen until August 14. Early access save data carries over, and no new save file is needed to unlock achievements. Additional content updates and patches are planned after 1.0.","whyItMatters":"The Japanese beta localization, though incomplete at 75%, signals NPC Studio's direct effort to court the Japanese market, a move that could broaden the game's audience beyond its Western early access base.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe full version of \u0026#39;Fields of Mistria\u0026#39; arrived on Steam with the 1.0 update, which implements endgame content including marriage and childbirth.
