A few moons ago, in August 2024, Fields of Mistria entered early access on Steam and took the cozy game market by storm. Finally, something that could actually rival Stardew Valley appeared with adorable graphics, loveable characters, and round crows to look after.

Now, Fields of Mistria just received its second major content update, giving you even more to do in the farm game. Not only does this update smooth out a lot of bugs and crashes, but it adds a new Lava Caves biome to fight through, a Deep Woods area to explore, and pets to adopt. They can even do jobs for you, like collecting resources!

The big thing that we’re really excited about is the reveal of Caldarus in human form. He’s the spirit that resides in the dragon statue on your farm, and despite being a statue made of stone, he has a lot of fans wanting to get to know him better, if you catch my drift. Well, now you can.
