Virtual farmers manage their agricultural empires in a new, lush East Asian landscape filled with rice paddies, a North American environment with plenty of open space, or a Central European location with green fields between ponds and rivers.
Building their legacy single-handedly or cooperatively in multiplayer, they can now grow two types of rice, spinach, and other new crops – choosing from well over 20 overall. Buffalos and other animals join the livestock pens, while new production chains and constructions extend business opportunities. More features and details will be revealed soon.
Machine enthusiasts enjoy an ensemble of over 400 authentic vehicles, tools & items from more than 150 international top brands. Among them: Case IH, CLAAS, Fendt, John Deere, Kubota, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Valtra, and many others. With Asian farming, new types of specialized machines get introduced.
All farmers feel a deeper connection to fields and nature thanks to a general tech upgrade with improved graphics and physics based on the latest and modding-friendly GIANTS Engine 10: Distance fog, enhanced shadows, dynamic weather effects, ground deformation and more boost the immersion of a romantic farming life.
Farming Simulator 25: Highlands Fishing grants the series another requested form of farming: aquaculture. Available as Expansion and Edition (bundled with the main game) on November 4th, Highlands Fishing invites players to build a farm and man a fishing boat in the Scotland-inspired town of Kinlaig – a lush paradise of rolling green hills and open water.
Kinlaig: A Wind-Bitten Environment
Rocky valleys, covered with rough grass and overcast by clouds that stretch far out to sea: Kinlaig, inspired by the Scottish Highlands, prompts farmers and aquaculturists to put to sea and plow the soil in an environment rich with history, enjoying authentic architecture like century-old castles as well as new construction projects.
Diving into Aquaculture, Fishing on the Shore
Fishing both on land and at sea enables aquafarmers to breed, raise, and harvest a variety of fish. Venturing out onto the water offers a new productive way to gather resources and another peaceful escape in addition to fields, forests, and stables. Casual shore fishing, rod in hand, rounds out the peaceful image of life by the water.
Onions, Fish & Highland Cattle
While salmon and rainbow trout populate the salty waters of Kinlaig, a new crop becomes available to grow on the land: Onions. Specialized equipment is included in the expansion and the fleet of vehicles and implements grows with four new brands and over 20 new machines. Manufacturers Monosem, Can-Am, Agri- Spread & GT Bunning join the series.
