Zelonka Map Comes to FS25: Explore European Terrain
Giants Software has just released a new gameplay trailer for Zelonka, the European map returning to Farming Simulator 25 from FS22’s Premium DLC. The trailer provides an enticing preview of the beautifully detailed environment players can expect in FS25, showcasing Zelonka as part of the base game offering.
Zelonka’s Return and Familiar Features
Zelonka, originally introduced in FS22, is making its comeback in FS25 with all the charm and intricate detail that players enjoyed in the previous installment. While this map wasn’t the most popular DLC in FS22, its inclusion in the base game for FS25 expands the variety of environments available. Fans of Zelonka will recognize familiar landscapes and locations, but the updated graphics and attention to detail bring a fresh look and feel to the map.
Map Exploration and Visual Enhancements
The focus of the new trailer is primarily on the map’s design rather than specific farming mechanics. Viewers are treated to a close-up look at Zelonka’s layout, complete with scenic fields, detailed structures, and immersive landscapes. The map is ideal for players who enjoy a European-style farming experience with plenty of places to explore and opportunities to test new machinery.
For those interested in comparing the FS25 and FS22 versions of Zelonka, there may be subtle updates in textures, lighting, and small details. The new trailer emphasizes how the graphical improvements in FS25 breathe new life into this familiar environment.
Completing the FS25 Base Game Map Lineup
With Zelonka now confirmed, Farming Simulator 25’s base game map lineup is officially complete. Players can look forward to exploring three unique maps at launch: Riverb Springs, Hut Pentai, and Zelonka. Each map brings a distinct regional style, and the inclusion of Zelonka provides a well-rounded mix of environments.
In addition to the base game maps, the FS25 Year One Expansion will introduce a new map, expected to be UK-themed based on initial teasers. Giants Software plans to share more about this expansion in the coming months.
