Farming Simulator 25 Will Have An East Asian Map & It Looks Fantastic

As a seasoned gamer with a soft spot for realistic simulators, I can hardly contain my excitement about Farming Simulator 25! The breathtaking map of Hutan Pantai, with its harmonious blend of urban, rural, and historical landscapes, is nothing short of mesmerizing. From the vibrant pagodas and Shinto temples to the neon-clad high streets and bustling ports, this game promises an immersive experience that’s as authentic as it gets.


On November 12th, the release of Farming Simulator 25 is set to take place, and some significant updates were announced by the team at GIANTS Software during the Tokyo Game Show.

The top-notch, most authentic farming game currently available is making its way eastwards, setting up shop in the picturesque province of Hutan Pantai.

A simple description doesn’t capture the beauty of the new map, luckily, we have a trailer that can convey its splendor instead.

GIANTS Software drew their main inspiration for the map design from various aspects of Japan and China. This influence is clearly visible in the creation process.

The coastal forest area, known as Hutan Pantai, offers an appealing blend of urban, rural, and historical settings. It boasts residential zones with lively pagodas, Shinto temples, quaint cobblestone pathways, and curvy mountain trails.

Simultaneously, there are vibrant streets adorned with neon lights, contemporary highways, and impressive port facilities at your disposal, aiding in transporting the fruits of your hard work out of the nation.

In these differing scenarios, it’s just the prevalence of compact trucks (kei trucks) and auto-rickshaws (tuk-tuks) – the unrecognized champions – that make a difference, enabling small businesses to transport goods even to locations where regular cargo trucks fail to traverse.

Planting More Than Just Vibes

In addition to the tranquil landscapes of the East Asian farmlands, Farming Simulator 25 offers significant updates to the gameplay.

Farmers can utilize not just one but two varieties of rice, accompanied by specialized tools for planting and harvesting (manual planting is still a viable choice if preferred).

Now, fluid and particle physics provide a more accurate representation, offering a true-to-life experience while simulating flood scenarios prior to rice planting.

Beyond the rice fields and wandering water buffaloes, Farming Simulator 25 brings in new crops such as peas, beans, and spinach.

Regarding wildlife, not only are new species such as water buffalos indigenous to Hutan Pantai being introduced, but GIANTS Software is also incorporating baby animals into their work.

As a gamer, I’ll have to keep a constant eye on my supplies when it comes to old farming staples. Instead of just using them directly, I’ll now need nets and wraps first to create the necessary supplies like bales.

In simpler terms, the developers aimed to improve accessibility, and they incorporated a system that’s much like a standard car navigation system for easier control of machinery. This new feature in Farming Simulator 25 will benefit both human players and AI vehicles alike.

It maps an optimal path through a field based on the task, avoiding obstacles or major irregularities. Depending on the setting, this assist can take control of the machine during turns to maintain alignment.

Fundamentally, Farming Simulator 25 retains its status as a farming game, and it’s quite effective in doing so. Unlike Farming Simulator 22, it won’t revolutionize the genre, but it doesn’t have to – it can still be enjoyable without drastic changes.

In Farming Simulator 25, set to release on November 12th for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5, enhancements to the setting, crops, gameplay mechanics, and overall aesthetic will make it a more captivating and peaceful experience for virtual farmers.
