Treat yourself to farm life with Farming Simulator 25, available today

Looking at the comments on social media, many seem confused, irritated and perhaps a little frightened about people taking up virtual farming. How could they! And who are they anyway? If you have doubts about the attractiveness of working in the countryside based on the concept alone, let us enlighten you.

Pour yourself a cup of tea. Add a shot of your favorite energy drink if necessary. We explain who plays Farming Simulator – and why they love it. Plus, with Farming Simulator 25 The game launches today on Xbox Series

Why should you start a farm?

Take your pick, there are many reasons: relaxation, escapism, self-determination and general wholesome entertainment are just the overarching buzzwords – but here are a few more reasons to start your virtual career as a farmer.

• Adapt to challenges – From improving yields and timely management of fields to coping with seasons and weather events such as hurricanes. They are kept on their feet.
• Grow the business – Expand your farm and develop it into an agricultural empire with construction projects, production chains and logistics to make it efficient.
• Master agriculture – Farmers never stop learning. There is a lot to discover and experience. You’ll look at tractors differently and maybe even appreciate the food in your fridge a little more.

Farming Simulator 25 offers many opportunities to make a farmer’s dream come true. For aspiring farmers as well as returning farmers who are discovering new crops, animals, machine categories and depth of play – from the feeling of sinking into the mud of deformed earth, to GPS-based controls for greater automation and efficiency, to advanced baling mechanisms. Consumable film types (experienced farmers really love them ) to new challenges such as weather events as hurricanes and hail prompt landowners to prepare.

“Who plays this stuff anyway?”

Without compromising, we can assure you that many people play Farming Simulator. And we don’t mean those with a knack for ironic entertainment, because “lol, tractors.” Sure, one fan told us that the game was given to him as a joke. He and his family now own a real farm because he was a little excited about the idea and is probably the last one laughing. While you may not be in a rush to purchase your own fertile land just yet, you may find that you fit into some of the archetypes listed below.

• Children They are known for their love of tractors and learn how to grow potatoes with Farming Simulator. There is some educational value for everyone. Do you know the difference between a plow, a cultivator and a subsoiler?
• Parents can relax and play with little observers. It could be a nice first bonding experience towards gaming and suitable for all ages.
• Gamers who like cooperative multiplayer mode. Building a multi-faceted empire of field operations, production chains and logistics. Everyone plays a role.
• Stressed people After work, they are too empty to engage in competitive online games, where verbal gunfights sadly mock the honor of their female protectors.
• All looking for satisfaction combined with relaxation. Harvesting a crop that grows in straight rows with an alien-like machine just scratches that very particular itch.
• farmers. The real ones. The ones who harvest the produce you buy at the supermarket and essentially feed the world. We know your next question…

“Why would real farmers play it after work?”

Hard to imagine for people who have never plowed before, but listen: playing Farming Simulator isn’t work!

• Farmers play it with passion for agriculture. It’s not “just a job” where you feel the need to anesthetize yourself by doomscrolling on social media.
• Farmers love machinesPrecision mechanics and impressive technology. Others enjoy it too and may be amazed by the over 400 machines – all authentic and detailed.
• Farmers can experiment – and you can too. 25 crops, plus greenhouse crops, various tree species and an ensemble of animals, now with goats and water buffalo.

The reason is passion. It’s that simple. For nature. For plants. For trees. Animals. machines. And worthwhile results. The game allows them to experiment with crops and machines that they could never grow and operate in their own fields.

For example, it is difficult to grow cotton on small fields anywhere in England. Or you can buy cattle just to have natural, sustainable lawn mowers if you really have a sweet sugar beet farm. There are three environments to choose from: North America, Europe and East Asia. Farming Simulator 25 offers an agricultural diversity that not only farmers find exciting.
