About This Game

The current flagship of the biggest agricultural sim series, and its boldest map choice yet: an East Asian setting with rice cultivation, water buffalo and new crops alongside the usual licensed machinery. A new engine adds ground deformation, so heavy equipment leaves real ruts and compacted soil that affect fieldwork, and the launch was the series' best at two million copies in the first week.

Reception depends heavily on platform. PC players rate it warmly, while the PS5 version drew fire for its 30fps cap, texture pop-in and launch bugs, a gap the developer has been steadily patching. Series veterans also call it iterative. For a first Farming Simulator on PS5 it is the natural pick; FS22 owners should weigh whether rice and ruts justify the upgrade.
