Fields of Mistria 1.0 release time for Australia and worldwide

After two years in early access, Fields of Mistria is approaching its major 1.0 launch. NPC Studio’s final large content update expands the fantasy farming adventure with more quests, dungeons, relationship events, town activities and customisation options. Further patches may address bugs and other problems, but this is intended to be the game’s last major content update.

Here is the release schedule for players in Australia and around the world. For more gaming news, visit RETROCADE’s Arcade Blog.
