No, not that kind of trailer. The other, video thing kind. Although there’s at least one trailer to be seen in the trailer.
Farming Simulator 25 will be released November 12.

No, no super-strength mod was involved. This was accomplished with only an unloading bale wagon and a slightly low roof overhang.
The map is the Terralife Paligney mod map in case anyone wonders.
There’s a new batch of news from Giants Software regarding their upcoming Farming Simulator 25.
The highlights this time? Cute baby animals and challenging weather.
This new gameplay trailer clearly shows off some of the in my mind quite big improvements in the new Farming Simulator.
Getting several stages of animal growth visualized is a nice addition to the animal handling and – hopefully – also hints of other changes in this department. Plus did I mention they are severely cute?
The other big addition is in my opinion even bigger though. According to Giants, there will now be a possibility – or maybe the correct word to use is risk – for both tornadoes and hail storms. Both of which may damage both crops, trees and maybe even buildings. But don’t worry. If you for some reason don’t want such challenges in your quiet, chill farmlife, they will be able to toggle off.
The yearly FarmCon is happening in Germany and that also means that we get some new information on Giants’ upcoming Farming Simulator 25. This includes a nearly half-hour long video which shows the first actual gameplay footage.
Included is the first look on how rice is cultivated and harvested, and in that process we also get to see an rice planter from the Japanese brand Iseki. Since rice is now a thing I suspect that brand will feature more prominently in FS25 than it ever did in Farming Simulator 22.
Giants Software today announced that Farming Simulator 25 will be released on November 12 this year for PC, Mac, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
The new version of the now classic game series will for the first time include a map, crops, and machinery suitable for East Asian farming. In other words it is time to plant and grow rice paddies.
In addition there will also in the base game be one American and one Central European map, over 20 different crops, animals – including buffalos – as well as new production chains and constructions.
The game engine itself has also got an overhaul and is now on version 10, which among other things means improved graphics and physics, providing effects like distance fog, enhanced shadows, dynamic weather effects, ground deformation, and more.
Farming Simulator 25 is already available for pre-order as standard and collector’s editions in select web stores, including Giants’ own store. Official release date is November 12, 2024.
The new DLC for Farming Simulator 22 – the Farm Production Pack was released on April 30th and you can now read the review.
The next DLC for Farming Simulator 22 is on its way and this time the focus is on production and logistics.
The Farm Production Pack is a collaboration between Dutch Modding Incorporated (DMI) and Giants Software, and the pack will bring all kinds of things in order to improve the logistics and resource management.
All in all the pack includes over 20 new machines, selling-points and buildings. This includes a full-blown distribution center for pallets of goods which can become a mini-game in itself.
For the crops there is the washer for rootcrops, improving their selling price. And speaking of selling, there’s also new placeable farm stores in different sizes where you can sell your produce.
The Farm Production Pack is coming April 30th for PC and consoles, but preorders are already open.

There has been a new free update to Farming Simulator 22. It is the Straw Harvest DLC made by Creative Mesh and which had it’s premier in Farming Simulator 17 that now exist also for the latest game in the series. So once again there is the possibility for a pellet industry and new ways to make use of the straw from the fields.
With the free Straw Harvest Pack, we get new powerful machinery from manufacturers Krone and Bressel und Lade. One of the machine highlights is the world’s first mobile pellet harvester – the Krone Premos 5000, which produces pellets by collecting straw and hay swaths from the field. Alternatively, it can be operated stationary with an additional bale shredder. Also included are two balers, the Krone BiG Pack 1290 HDP II and Comprima V180 XC alongside other machines for handling bales and pallets.
To add another layer to the gameplay, a versatile and configurable industry hall allows for storage and processing. While produced pellets can be sold, used for animal bedding, or fed to animals, the industry hall allows more possibilities through configurations – it can be used as an empty hall for parking vehicles as well as storing bales and pallets, or there could be added a hall crane to easier move bulk material, bales, and pallets. Adding an automatic palletizer, the pellets can be processed yet another step and sold at an even higher profit.
Straw Harvest can be downloaded directly in Farming Simulator 22 via the in-game ModHub and is as stated an entirely free DLC.
Giants have released the big Premium Expansion for Farming Simulator 22.
The main features is the addition of three new crops – carrots, red beets and parsnips-, new machinery and the new Zielonka map.
Update: There is now a review of the expansion which you can read here.
