Animals get cuter, more varied and the weather more challenging: Showing off the upcoming agricultural sim at gamescom, publisher and developer GIANTS Software reveals new features for Farming Simulator 25. Attendees visiting the games fair in Cologne can play-test the game from August 21st to 25th in hall 6. GIANTS Software is also present in the business area (hall 4.2).
Weather Shift: Twisters with a Chance of Hail
When virtual farmers see darkening clouds in the sky, it could be a sign of some serious weather on the way. Expecting a light twister or hail to touch down in a few areas, they need to take precautions and secure any unroofed bales. While the skies will clear and the new weather events will pass, they always carry the chance of destroying a portion of fields and forests. Players can deactivate the destruction of crops if they like their yield untouched by the weather.
Cuteness Upgrade for Animal Husbandry
With water buffaloes and goats, new animal types fill the pens, producing new types of milk that can be processed and used in production chains to acquire and distribute fine cheeses. Increasing the cuteness factor and fluffiness of the fur, animals produce offspring. Wobbling on their tiny legs at first, animal farmers watch them grow into productive livestock.
Farming Simulator 25 will be released on PC, Mac, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 12th. It features 25 crops, including new additions like rice and spinach, 400+ authentic vehicles and tools as well as 150 real-world brands. Pre-orders are available now at select retailers. Visit the official Farming Simulator website and the GIANTS Software press area for more information.
