New Content & Features

Players can experience new features and content in Farming Simulator 25, which include the following:

New Maps

Farming Simulator 25 introduces a new map called Riverbend Springs. This location boasts a large, winding river, so you'll have easy access to a water source. You'll also come across historic buildings, such as an old grain elevator and a rustic paper mill. There's also the new Hutan Pantai map, which was announced at Tokyo Game Show 2024. Here, the buildings in the main town light up the night with their neon lighting fixtures. While information is still scarce, this East Asian map seems to have a mix of a flat and hilly terrain for players to make use of. You can watch the teaser trailer for the Hutan Pantai map below:

New Crops

It’s time to add a unique flavor to your fields with the new Spinach crop. It’s a valuable crop that lets you harvest twice per sow. Additionally, it has a reasonably fast 3-month growth duration, allowing farmers to earn income from the plant without waiting for a significantly long period. Aside from Spinach, farmers can soon also cultivate rice in their fields.

New Animal Species

Those who wish to harness their animal husbandry skills can do so with two new species: goats and water buffalo. The products produced by these animals can be used to make new types of milk, which can then become ingredients for cheese. Check out the goats in Farming Simulator 25 in the trailer below: &t=2s

Sell Your Own Produce

Previous iterations of Farming Simulator generally required players to travel to merchants to sell their harvested products. In Farming Simulator 25, however, you'll be able to vend your own produce with the new Small Farmer's Kiosk!

New Machines

Farming Simulator 25 increases its library of usable machines. Some examples include the Brantner TR 34090/2 PT+, Merlo MF44.9CS-170-CVTRONIC, OXBO MKB-4TR, and FARMTECH EDK-650.
