FS25: Dynamic Pastures are Officially Coming!
Today brings exciting news from Germany, where the latest Farming Simulator magazine dropped early, giving fans a look at some upcoming features in Farming Simulator 25. These updates aren’t leaks or rumors, just a bit of information released ahead of schedule. Let’s dive into some of the biggest highlights!
Dynamic Pastures
One of the most exciting reveals is the introduction of Dynamic Pastures. Instead of bringing feed to grazing animals, players can now take cows, sheep, and other animals to meadows and let them graze on fresh grass. Dynamic Pastures allow players to set up fences on any large grass field or meadow they own, creating a natural feeding system. For those playing with Seasons activated, animals will need to be brought back to their stables during winter and provided with stored food until spring. This much-requested feature is a game-changer, bringing more realism and depth to animal husbandry in FS25.
New Brands and Equipment
The magazine also confirms several new brands. In addition to familiar names like MacDon, which will offer header and rake options through DLC, we’ll also see Pitts for timber transport and Stema for vehicle transport. The cultivator brand Summers is also joining the lineup. Notably, the flatbed trailer and roller brand Brandt and Geringhoff are being introduced, expanding the equipment options even further. Giants Software continues to push for variety in equipment, ensuring players have plenty of choice when customizing their farms.
Visual Enhancements and Dynamic Terrain
The magazine further explores the upgrades made possible with Giants Engine 10, which powers improved lighting, realistic GPS for accurate pathfinding, and dynamic terrain effects. Expect even more realistic weather conditions, textures, and vehicle detailing. These updates add depth to the farming environment, with textures that bring everything from mud to tire tracks to life.
What’s Next?
While these are just the highlights, there’s much more to come as Farming Simulator 25 launches on November 12, 2024 for PC, Mac, PS5, and Xbox Series. If you haven’t pre-ordered yet, this is the perfect time, especially with new features like Dynamic Pastures adding to the excitement. Stay tuned for more previews, and if you have thoughts on what you’d like to see, feel free to share them!
