The beloved farming life simulator is about to become even more immersive. Giants Software, the developers behind the series, have officially announced Farming Simulator VR, a new virtual reality experience that plunges players deep into the world of agriculture.
Dubbed a “brand new” farming experience, players will be tasked with independently managing the sowing and harvesting of crops, tending to vegetables in greenhouses, maintaining their vehicles, and more—all in the pursuit of developing and prospering their own farm.
The announcement has been met with enthusiasm from the series' fanbase. Many see Farming Simulator VR as an excellent learning tool and are curious about the gameplay dynamics, with one pressing question being:
What happens if you get in the way of a working combine harvester?
Mark your calendars: Farming Simulator VR is set to launch on February 28, and it will be exclusively available on Meta Quest 2, Quest 3, Quest 3S, and Quest Pro devices.
What can future virtual farmers look forward to? The developers have promised a comprehensive set of features, including:
- A full cycle of agricultural work encompassing planting, harvesting, packing, and selling;
- The opportunity to grow tomatoes, eggplants, strawberries, and other crops in greenhouses;
- Official machinery from leading manufacturers such as Case IH, CLAAS, Fendt, John Deere, and others;
- The ability to repair and maintain machines in a personal workshop;
- An added layer of realism with the option to pressure wash your equipment.
