The Farming Simulator universe has grown: Farming Simulator 26 is now available on Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. In this brand-new installment, publisher and developer GIANTS Software introduces farming challenges offering rewards alongside the relaxed, self-paced farming experience the series is known for, two new maps and more.
Rising to the Challenge of Farming
In addition to reaping what they sow, farmers are rewarded for completing weekly or seasonal challenges. Ranging from simple field tasks like cultivating, sowing, or harvesting, farmers are also encouraged to interact with the broader ecosystem – like delivering wheat to the grainmill, so flour can be produced in town.
“Fans have been eagerly awaiting new opportunities to grow and manage their own farm on the go,” says Boris Stefan, CSO of GIANTS Software. “With tons of engaging farming activities and new rewarding challenges, Farming Simulator 26 is not only the most comprehensive and relaxing mobile experience yet, but also the most gratifying. We can’t wait to see players dig in and enjoy it wherever they are.”
Authenticity, Depth & Variety
15 crops, farm animals, and more than 120 authentically digitized machines from renowned manufacturers like Case IH, CLAAS, DEUTZ-FAHR, Fendt, John Deere, KRONE, Kubota, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Valtra, and others: Farming Simulator 26 offers plenty of choice.
New production chains, heavy trucks to transport the goods, baby animals, and more offer a variety of agricultural depth in a European and a North-American environment. With GPS-enabled machines and improved in-game tutorials, Farming Simulator 26 becomes more accessible as well.
The Nintendo Switch Edition of Farming Simulator 26 is available at selected retail stores and the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch. The mobile versions for iPhone, iPad, and Android™ devices are available in the App Store and on Google Play, respectively.

Publisher and developer GIANTS Software announces Farming Simulator 26, introducing a new challenge system that gives players tasks and offers rewards in addition to a satisfying sense of progression. Soon available on Nintendo Switch and mobile devices, the game invites virtual farmers to take on structured tasks while still enjoying a relaxed, self-paced farming experience.
Rewards & relaxation on two new maps
Players will farm across two new environments, one European and one North-American map. The new challenge system provides optional direction, for example, delivering wheat to a grain mill so the bakery receives flour and can produce cake. Farmers are rewarded for completing weekly or seasonal challenges that encourage them to engage with the broader farming ecosystem.
A wide range of farming
Farming Simulator 26 offers plenty of activities, letting players shape their farm around whatever they prefer: They can spend a calm session in the fields cultivating 15 different crops, head into the woods with heavy forestry equipment, or care for farm animals like cows, sheep, chickens, and goats, including their offspring. New production chains, and the logistics required to keep them running, add another layer of depth.
Real machines from renowned brands
This new installment of the series lets players operate more than 120 realistic tractors, harvesters, field sprayers, and other machines. The lineup features acclaimed global manufacturers, including Case IH, CLAAS, DEUTZ-FAHR, Fendt, John Deere, KRONE, Kubota, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Valtra, and many more.
With GPS guidance and improved in-game tutorials, Farming Simulator 26 becomes more accessible on mobile devices and Nintendo Switch. It helps newcomers get comfortable quickly, while giving all players the tools to unwind – with or without tackling new challenges.
Farming Simulator 26 will be released on May 19, 2026. Pre-orders for Farming Simulator 26: 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.
