Another installment of the popular farming series by GIANTS Software. Farming Simulator 25 introduces new maps set in Europe, Asia, and America. The game features upgraded graphics and physics, new crop and animal types, as well as an expanded selection of vehicles and equipment.
Farming Simulator 25 is the tenth main installment of the popular farming series, created for personal computers and stationary consoles (it is worth mentioning that Farming Simulator 23 was designed for portable platforms). Just like the previous simulators from this series, which started in 2008, it is the work of the German studio GIANTS Software.
Gameplay
List of novelties introduced in Farming Simulator 25 includes new open maps that take us to East Asia strewn with rice fields, to the open space of North America, and to the picturesque land in Central Europe, crossed by rivers.
The game also brings previously unavailable crops, such as two types of rice and spinach, and farm animals (including buffaloes). In addition, the 2025 version introduces additional buildings and production chains, as well as new, specialized machines.
The gameplay itself is based on the pillars built by the previous installments of the series. During the game we manage a farm and earn money, which we can spend on building new structures and improving existing ones, as well as on purchasing increasingly advanced equipment for our farm.
The game offers over 400 vehicles, machines and other tools from over 150 real brands, such as Case IH, CLAAS, John Deere, Massey Ferguson and New Holland.
Co-op
Farming Simulator 25 can be played alone or in a cooperative multiplayer mode.
Engine
Farming Simulator 25 runs on GIANTS Engine 10 technology and offers improvements in graphics and physics. Compared to the previous part of the series, this game stands out thanks to the fog effects at long distances, better shadows, as well as improved weather effects or terrain deformation.
Collector's edition
The collector's edition of Farming Simulator 25 includes a number of physical items: a USB stick with two keys that responds to vehicles in the game, a separate Farming Simulator: 16-Bit Edition production with a CD soundtrack, three A2 format posters, a keychain, 32 stickers, and guides for creating mods for FS25.

Checkpoint Gaming: 7 / 10 by Victor Tan
Farming Simulator 25 is a tough experience if you haven't done farming before. The tutorial is short and only introduces you to the basics of agriculture, so you'll spend most of your time making mistakes and fumbling around. But if you stay and learn, you get a comprehensive farming experience. It comes at the cost of everything being related to farming, but you'll gain a better appreciation for the work that farmers do.
Press Start: 7 / 10 by James Berich
Farming Simulator 25 is a pleasantly surprising experience that builds upon its predecessors to feel as expansive as ever while remaining authentic. While it's no revolutionary change for the series, Farming Simulator 25 is both rewarding and immersive if you stick with it, even if it won't hold your hand for most of the journey.
Completexbox: 80 / 100 by Jordan Campbell
Whilst I did find the visuals of Farming Simulator 25 not much further ahead from what I played ten years ago, I did appreciate that the scope of the game has changed massively. Other games in the genre try and simulate farming environments but with the work of Giant’s Software, you won’t get any better than this one. The maps are vast in size and there is an unlimited amount of hours within this game with three huge areas to choose from, longevity is there. Bring with this the massive array of authentic farming equipment you can invest in, it is a paradise for farming enthusiasts.
The main pros of the game
- Graphics: Many users praised the stunning graphics, with improved visuals compared to previous titles.
- Modding Community: The game allows extensive modding, which enhances gameplay and longevity.
- Realism: Players appreciated the realistic farming experience, including features like GPS steering assist and ground deformation.
- Multiplayer: The multiplayer aspect adds a fun, chaotic element, especially when playing with friends.
- Innovative Features: New elements, such as additional crops and ground physics, were noted as enjoyable additions.
The main cons of the game
- Bugs and Performance Issues: Many reviews highlighted ongoing bugs, crashes, and performance problems, especially at launch.
- AI Problems: The AI for hired workers is often described as poor, with users reporting that they get lost or perform tasks inefficiently.
- Limited Base Content: Several players felt that the game launched with a smaller selection of vehicles and equipment compared to previous titles.
- High Price for Quality: Many users expressed that the game feels overpriced given its current state, suggesting it lacks polish and content.
The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users
- Precision Farming: Some users were disappointed that this feature was not included at launch and is still in development.
- More Vehicle Options: A desire for a wider range of vehicles and equipment was frequently mentioned.
- Improved AI Mechanics: Users want better AI functionality, especially for hired workers, as the current system is seen as regressive from previous titles.
- Better Modding Support: There were complaints about the slow approval process for mods on the official modhub, limiting the available content.
- User Interface Improvements: Some players found the new user interface cluttered and unhelpful compared to earlier versions.
Summary
- Overall, while Farming Simulator 25 has its strengths, particularly in graphics and modding potential, it suffers from significant bugs, performance issues, and a lack of content that has led many longtime fans to feel disappointed.
