On May 23rd, publisher and developer GIANTS Software allows virtual farmers to take their farms anywhere. With the release on Nintendo Switch™ and mobile devices powered by iOS or Android™, the next installment of the successful Farming Simulator series introduces a brand-new experience. Now, the makers of Farming Simulator 23 announced the scope of the agricultural fleet that fans can look forward to.
Heavy & Specialized Machinery
“While mobile users may purchase additional content directly in-game, Nintendo Switch fans receive an extended fleet of 130+ agricultural machines from the get-go”, explains Boris Stefan, Head of Publishing at GIANTS Software.
One way or another, agricultural enthusiasts look forward to an impressive fleet of authentically digitized machines: High-performance tractors like the Case IH Magnum 380 CVXDrive, Landini Serie 7 Robo-Six or Zetor Crystal HD, harvesters like the New Holland Braud 9070L specialized in grapes and olives or planters such as the Lemken Azurit 9 and many more are included in Farming Simulator 23.
Paid & Free Content to Extend the Game
Mobile users can extend the selection of 100+ machines available from the in-game dealership with in-app purchases: The John Deere 8R 410 tractor and CLAAS LEXION harvester are two of the machines available separately at launch.
In addition, Nintendo Switch players as well as mobile users will receive free and paid content updates down the road after Farming Simulator 23 launches on May 23rd as the latest official game in the successful simulation series.
Fans and farming-interested gamers can look forward to new crops like grapes and olives, new mechanics like production chains and gameplay features like plowing and weeding in the direct sequel to Farming Simulator 20. Meanwhile, gamers on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox enter Year 2 of Farming Simulator 22 with a new expansion, content packs, and updates coming later in 2023.
Farming Simulator 23 will be released on May 23, 2023. Pre-orders for Farming Simulator 23: Nintendo Switch Edition are available at selected retail stores and the Nintendo eShop. The mobile versions for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices are featured in the App Store and on Google Play, respectively.

It’s an un-bale-lievable fun activity, now heavily extended: With the Göweil Pack for Farming Simulator 22, publisher and developer GIANTS Software launches the first of multiple content packs in 2023, and extends the process of baling and wrapping various resources. It’s available now and accompanied by a narrated launch trailer.
Göweil Pack Introduces New Machines & Gameplay Possibilities
“We’ve added technology that’s entirely new to Farming Simulator: The Göweil Pack expands the fleet of machines with new possibilities for baling-oriented farming operations and their complexity.”, comments Thomas Frey, Creative Director and Partner Manager at GIANTS Software. “Nine machines are introduced and let virtual farmers transform more resources into bales than before: corn silage, sugar beet pulp, mixed feed, and more.”
Included are internationally popular machines by Göweil: Among them, the stationary baler wrapper combinations LT-Master F115 and VARIO-Master V140, the autonomous bale wrapper G4010 Q Profi and the roller wrapper G1015 that lets players transport, wrap, and stack bales with one single, efficient machine. Also included: Göweil RBG and BTGQU, G-1 F125 Kombi, G-1 F125 and the G5020.
First Pack Released, Three More & One Expansion to Go
In addition, GIANTS Software and Göweil deliver quality-of-life-enhancing tools like silage additive tanks and bale turners to further increase the quality and handling of bales. Down the road in 2023, the publisher plans even more extensive additions and updates that will be revealed in the upcoming months.
Farming Simulator 22 and the Göweil Pack are available for PC, Mac, PlayStation®5 (PS5™), Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One. A Year 2 Season Pass is available, which includes the Göweil Pack, three more packs and one expansion – fans save up to 30% compared to getting the content separately. The Göweil Pack is the first of many official updates in 2023. Even more content will be added free of charge, while the official in-game ModHub continues to grow with developer-tested user creations.

New crops and animals to grow an agricultural empire: Publisher and developer GIANTS Software announces Farming Simulator 23 for release on May 23rd on Nintendo Switch™ and mobile devices. With plenty of new features in an open-world setting, GIANTS Software equips the family-friendly Farming Simulator 23 with everything needed to become the genre-leading figurehead for simulation games that can be played everywhere.
Authentic Machinery & Valuable Goods
Farming Simulator 23 is the successor to the globally acclaimed Farming Simulator 20 released in 2019. Players choose their way of farming, whether it’s agriculture, animal husbandry, or forestry. Different types of machines help with all activities on the farm and beyond: More than 100 authentic vehicles and tools from world-renowned manufacturers such as Case IH, CLAAS, DEUTZ-FAHR, Fendt, John Deere, KRONE, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Valtra & many others are included in the game.
New gameplay mechanics allow various production chains, whereas players produce flour from their harvested wheat to sell bread – or furniture from wood, or even clothes from sheep wool! Plowing and weeds offer more new activities as additional options to cultivate the fields.
Crops and Animals on Two Entertaining Maps
No farm without animals: Farming Simulator 23 newly adds chickens to cows, horses, pigs, and sheep. Whether breeding, collecting eggs, or riding out on a horse, all these cute animals enrich the farm life.
Grapes, olives, and sorghum are new among the 14 crops to harvest. Players can also take a stroll and search for collectibles or simply enjoy the seasonal visual changes in the landscapes: There is a lot to explore in Amberstone and Neubrunn, the two unique maps, inspired by environments in the USA and Europe.
Benchmark for Mobile Farming
“Whether in the chicken coop, on the field or when transporting goods, the various possibilities in Farming Simulator 23 ensure rich diversity and limitless fun," comments Boris Stefan, Head of Publishing at GIANTS Software. "We're happy to deliver our fans the next installment in the series; Farming Simulator 23 is poised to become an impressive mobile platform milestone in our company line-up.”
The improved tutorial mode, AI helper, and the new auto-loading feature for logs and pallets support the players in their farming career. In May, it’s time to start farming anywhere you want to let the good times grow!
Farming Simulator 23 will be released on May 23, 2023. Pre-orders for Farming Simulator 23: Nintendo Switch Edition are available at selected retail stores and the Nintendo eShop. The mobile versions for iPhone, iPad, and Android™ devices will be available in the App Store and on Google Play, respectively.

The first content pack of Farming Simulator 22’s sophomore year makes baling and wrapping an even more extensive hay-day of fun: Coming March 21st for PC and consoles, publisher and developer GIANTS Software just announced the Göweil Pack to introduce nine new agricultural machines and tools to extend a core farm activity.
New Machines & Possibilities with Göweil
Austrian manufacturer Göweil has an international reputation for producing high-quality, durable, and innovative machinery – especially baling and wrapping technology. With their debut in the Farming Simulator series, a broad selection of machines and tools adds new possibilities for virtual farmers with a knack for baling.
Players are now able to transform even more resources into bales: Corn silage, sugar beet pulp, mixed feed, and more can be baled and wrapped with high-tech machines like the Göweil LT-Master F115 or VARIO-Master V140. A small but substantial detail for baling enthusiasts: Net-binding in addition to foil-wrapping will be possible.
Enhanced Quality-of-Bale-Farming
Operations dependent on baled resources can also extend their farm by deploying stationary and autonomous baler-wrappers like the G4010 Q Profi to achieve a high output of bales in variable shapes & sizes. Roller wrappers like the Göweil G1015 attach to front loaders or three-point hitches and transport, wrap, and stack bales – with one single, efficient machine.
Good news for clumsy farmers frequently chasing their bales: Thanks to the addition of a bale turner, the days of round bales rolling downhill are numbered. It’s easier to put them into storage, too – thanks to new bale grippers and bale forks like the Göweil RBG and BTGQU. Even the quality of bales rises with optional silage additive tanks for baler wrapper combinations like the Göweil G-1 F125 Kombi. Further included: the fixed chamber baler G-1 F125 and the trailed round bale wrapper G5020 to round the selection off and wrap it up!
Just the Start for a Content-Heavy Year
With the Göweil Pack, GIANTS Software releases the first of many official updates in 2023. Even more content will be added free of charge, and the official in-game ModHub will continue to grow with developer-tested user creations.
Farming Simulator 22 is available for PC, Mac, PlayStation®5 (PS5™), Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One; the Göweil Pack is ready for pre-orders and will be released March 21st. A Year 2 Season Pass is available, which includes the Göweil Pack, three more packs and an expansion – fans save up to 30% compared to getting the content separately.
