'Farming Simulator 22' Reveals Haut-Beyleron Map - Screens & Trailer

Cultivated to be bigger and better, Farming Simulator 22 will offer more depth thanks to a variety of new additions and therefore the highest extent of player freedom in the history of the series.

Once again, the family-friendly game series takes a leap forward. With new features and improvements, Farming Simulator 22 will allow every aspiring farmer to creatively build their farm no matter the age or real - life profession. Either on their own, or cooperatively in multiplayer for up to 8 players on consoles and 16 on PC, Mac and Stadia.

New crops, new maps, new machines, and new brands are just the beginning of what players can expect. And on top of that, it is getting snowy, too - players should prepare for the exciting addition of seasonal cycles – as well as other features to be announced soon!

Two new maps plus an updated alpine Erlengrat map will put emphasis on different kinds of farming operations through the seasons.

With a set of more than 400 machines and tools from more than 100 authentic agricultural brands including new categories, players can look forward to an improved and realistic-as-ever simulation. But even for new players, it will be easy to dive into agriculture, animal husbandry (including cuter animals) and forestry.


French charm

Inspired by illustrious Mediterranean areas in the South of France, like Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur or Beynac-et-Cazenac, this vast map is ideal to create a lush vineyard or an olive orchard. These crops are new in Farming Simulator 22 and can be processed further into grape juice, raisins, or olive oil for additional revenue. The rural landscape invites for exploration and players can experience traditional gondolas, an old castle and many more sights. 

Open for business

48 fields are spread all over the varied Haut-Beyleron map in various shapes and sizes – with the option to create more. Thanks to the new production chains, players can extend their operation with various factories to create a whole business empire. And not only on their own, multiple farmers can occupy different locations on the map and join each other via cross-platform multiplayer.

Based on the GIANTS Engine 9, Farming Simulator 22 features many technical improvements such as more realistic AI behavior and richer worlds. Thanks to those worlds, players will be drawn even deeper into the virtual farming lifestyle. For example, motor sounds of their tractors appear even more realistic through acoustic gear selection and graduated reverberation.

Better performance on all platforms: with DirectX 12 support on Windows, texture streaming, multi- threading optimization, occlusion culling and temporal anti-aliasing amidst other optimizations, the newest Farming Simulator will receive a performance boost on all systems laying the foundation for even more complex mod customization to enjoy more content.

Farming Simulator 22 will come to PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, Mac and Stadia on November 22, 2021.
