Farming Simulator 25 News

Want to play Farming Simulator 25? Sure you do. But if you don't want to wait until November 12th, you have to get yourself to gamescom this year! From August 21st to 25th, you can play a special preview version of the game in Cologne, Germany, at the world's biggest gaming fair.

[h2]Put Your Hands on FS25![/h2]



While we (obviously) don't bring the complete and final game, you can already get a glimpse of what to expect. Take a look at Riverbend Springs and a careful selection of machines. We have plenty gaming stations prepared.

[h2]Put a Hat on in Hall 6![/h2]



If you want to find us, just walk up to a giant, unmistakable tractor in hall six. We're at the booth with the CLAAS XERION 12.650 TT and its 650 units of horsepower standing beside it. If you’re quick, you can score one of the popular straw hats that hover through the crowd every year.

[h2]Entertaining Stage Program[/h2]



There's more: A stage program led by an energetic host and renowned content creators invites all Farming Simulator fans and other fair attendants to visit. Virtual bale stacking competitions and cool prizes included.

[h2]Want Even More?[/h2]



The Year 1 Bundle contains Farming Simulator 25 + Year 1 Season Pass (3 content packs & 1 expansion) to extend to your game as soon as the additional content releases. By pre-ordering (all versions), you also get the MacDon Pack with five highlight machines on top!

Are you ready to build a new farm in Riverbend Springs? After we first presented this new map for Farming Simulator 25 at this year's FarmCon, here's another preview with brand-new impressions!



Remember, Farming Simulator 25 releases November 12th. Pre-order to get the MacDon Pack! Or go for the fancy Collector's Edition, including a USB Ignition Lock to start your in-game tractors. You know you want it. It goes great with the beacon light (available separately). Just saying. 


[h2]Celebrating Water[/h2]



You don't have to ask where the name comes from when you look at the map of Riverbend Springs. A huge, winding river, lots of water, and many little creeks and streams in between. A ferry, too. If you're wondering, how to get across the river - crossing it with a ferry fit for your machine is an option! 



"It's all about water and we wanted to celebrate that", commented Senior Level Designer Florian Busse at FarmCon. That's why you'll find piers, jetties, houseboats, restaurants floating on the river, and many more elements in Riverbend Springs to go along with the theme of the map. Perfect fit for adding rice and water physics, right?












[h2]History of Lands & Farms[/h2]



In Riverbend Springs, you'll come across some historic buildings and other elements of times gone by. The old grain elevator, a paper mill at the river or brick buildings how they were built a hundred years ago, for example. 














[h2]Places to Visit[/h2]



There are many nice spots in Riverbend Springs you might want to visit. Who knows what (or who) you'll get to see when exploring.

There are construction sites, businesses buying your goods, and more. If you're one to enjoy forests and nature, you might want to walk through the woods.
