Farming Simulator 19 Main Logo FS19

Get ready to rev up your tractors, combines, balers, spreaders, and whatever other farm equipment you favor, because Farming Simulator 19 is officially out today. To celebrate the successful maturation of their latest crop, developer GIANTS Software has produced a new trailer.

 

Farming Simulator 19 isn’t just horsing around with this release. Or are they? The game features over three hundred vehicles and farming tools from world renown brands including John Deere, Case IH, New Holland, Challenger, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, Valtra, Krone, and Deutz-Fahr. Livestock, and yes, rideable horses add even more ways for players to enjoy and explore their virtual farms and raise profitable crops.

Players can select one of three starting scenarios, such as no property but plenty of money, or a small starting farm with limited initial resources. If farming alone doesn’t sound appealing, players can join a multiplayer server of up to sixteen players (six on console) to cooperate or compete on a single map. In this mode every player starts out with their own tracts of land and starting equipment, then build away. Both PC/Mac and console versions of Farming Simulator 19 will support community mods, adding even more options for every playstyle.

The most prominent game this year to feature rideable horses that isn’t a western.

Farming Simulator 19 features a complete overhaul of the graphics engine from previous iterations, allowing players to get closer to the action than ever before. The game features both American and European farming environments, missions, and new farming activities. New crops include cotton and oats. Those oats will come in handy for feeding the horses too.

John Deere equipment makes its first ever appearance in the game, bringing arguably the most recognizable color in farm equipment to life.

Farming Simulator 19 is out now for PC and Mac computers via Steam, the Microsoft Xbox One family of consoles, and the Sony PlayStation®4.
