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.


The second big expansion for Farming Simulator 22 features six maps, hundreds of machines, seven official content packs, and two expansions, new and returning farmers enjoy a sheer endless mass of family-friendly activities for cooperative and competitive farming.

Just like any automobile enthusiast, farmers know: a garage just can’t be big enough.

Developer/publisher GIANTS Software releases a new trailer to provide agricultural machine lovers with a foretaste of what’s to come with the Premium Expansion and Premium Edition of Farming Simulator 22.

In the official Garage Trailer, selected machines are highlighted in style, while the company’s video department resuscitated their fondness of electronic freestyle hip-hop of the mid-80s and early 90s.

Plenty of New Brands & Machines

Atop more than 400 machines of the base game, the Premium Expansion adds over 35 new items from newcomer manufacturers Dewulf, Gorenc, Agrio & WIFO, plus even more machines by BEDNAR, Fiat, GRIMME, Kverneland, SaMASZ & others. The new additions also push the number of available real-world brands and their authentically digitized machines in Farming Simulator 22 to over 150.

More Authentic Than Ever

To prepare the fields in Zielonka, the Premium Expansion’s new map, and care for the new crops, GIANTS Software adds a variety of machines to sow, harvest and tend to the soil. Carrots, parsnips, and red beet have special requirements, so rotary hillers like the GRIMME GF 800 to create ridges before sowing, and various harvesting machines like the highlight machine Dewulf ZKIVSE vegetable harvester are required to care for them.

All of them, as usual, are authentically digitized - with even more care applied to moving parts and other mechanical details, resulting in even more realistic machinery.

Farming Simulator 22: Premium Edition will be available for PC, Mac, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One on November 14, 2023, boxed and digitally.

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 is available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC/Mac.
