Thanks to the v0.13.0 update released on March 10 for *Fields of Mistria*, you now have the power to modify the length of daytime hours. This feature is accessible to all players, regardless of their progress in the game.

To start, load your current game save from the Main Menu. Once you're back on your farm, open the Pause Menu and navigate to the **Settings tab** (represented by a cog wheel icon) at the bottom. From there, select **‘Accessibility’** from the left-hand drop-down menu. You'll find the **‘Day Time Speed’** option at the top, which will initially be set to ‘Standard’.

Click on it, and you'll receive a warning that extending daytime hours might affect certain NPC schedules, which are designed for the Standard setting. If this isn't a concern for you, feel free to adjust the daytime speed meter to one of the alternative settings – **‘Longer’** or **‘Longest’**. Observations suggest that ‘Longer’ significantly extends daytime, while ‘Longest’ offers the most extended period. Naturally, ‘Longest’ is often the preferred choice.

To implement your chosen setting, simply have your character sleep in their bed until the next day begins. The new daytime duration will then be in effect. If you wish to change it again later, just follow the same steps.

In cozy farming sims like *Fields of Mistria* (and its renowned predecessor *Stardew Valley*), time management is crucial. You typically have a limited window each day to tackle various tasks on your farm and in the town. Planning your daily activities is essential, especially when time-consuming tasks like mining can consume an entire day. While the Teleportation Chalice helps with returning home on time, the v0.13.0 update's daytime speed adjustment feature is a game-changer that has thrilled players worldwide.

This wraps up our guide on how to change day length in *Fields of Mistria*. For more tips and tricks, be sure to explore our other content, including strategies on how to make money quickly in the game.
