Farming Simulator 25 Upgraded Engine
Every tractor is only as good as its engine, and the same goes for Farming Simulator 25.
The new game will use the latest GIANTS Engine 10, providing enhanced graphics and gameplay. There are still several unknowns, but we do know there will be "distance fog, enhanced shadows, dynamic weather, and ground deformation" in this year's title.
Farming Simulator 25 Locations
Along with North America's open expanse and Central Europe's greenery, a brand new environment is coming in Farming Simulator 25. Players will be heading east, which is perfect for those looking for something different.
East Asia's lush landscape will debut in Farming Simulator 25. Filled with rice paddies, this adds a nice variety of environments for farmers.
Once again, each world can be worked on solo or in multiplayer. Working cooperatively with others across these vast maps is the best way to play Farming Simulator 25, especially with all the improvements to the weather, graphics, and physics.
Farming Simulator 25 New Vehicles, Crops, and Animals
Farming Simulator 25 will feature over 400 authentic vehicles, tools, and items from 150 brands when it launches. These include tractors, harvesters, sowers, and other vital equipment needed to run the fields.
Brands include well-known names such as John Deere, Massey Ferguson, and Valtra. Such a wide selection of options is perfect for new and returning players looking to pick up the best equipment for the job.
The addition of the East Asia map also sees new specialist equipment added to the game this year. Harvesting rice from the paddy fields requires specific tools previously unavailable in the series.
Along with two rice varieties, plenty of other new crops will also be available in Farming Simulator 25. Among the new crop types is spinach, ideal for those looking to grow healthy crops.
On the animal side, water buffalos and goats are joining the extensive list of available livestock. More details on the crops and animals and other business opportunities in Farming Simulator 25 will be revealed closer to the game’s release.
