New Multiplayer Modes: Arena & Bale Stacking Enter Open Beta!
If you and your friends should come to a dispute - like whose turn it is to harvest the oversized field of wheat with a small combine harvester after someone spend the money for an upgrade on a decadently big tractor - you can now battle it out in new multiplayer modes!
The brand-new Arena Mode and Bale Stacking Mode enter the beta phase in Farming Simulator 22. It's an open beta and available for everyone on PC right now. So, check it out!
Activate "esports" Branch For Competitive Farming!
You have to opt in to the esports branch of Farming Simulator 22, which grants you access to the beta version of our new competitive farming modes. It's only a few clicks, don't worry.
Steam version
Open the Farming Simulator 22 settings via the steam game library, select the "esports" beta branch and confirm.
After selecting the esports branch, the game will update, and you'll find the "esports" entry in the main menu of Farming Simulator 22.
Grab Some Friends Or Battle Strangers!
Whether you play with friends or alone, using the matchmaking, you can now prove your farming skills and strategic abilities. In the Bale Stacking Mode, you compete with others for the highscore of carefully stacked bales.
If that's not competitive enough for you, enter the arena and compete in a 3 vs. 3 environment against other players. Find out, which team is best at strategically harvesting wheat, pressing bales and delivering them to the own team's barn!
Got Beta Feedback?
You can submit your feedback regarding the new beta game modes via our public bug tracker.

Upgrade your farm with nine new machines by Göweil and extend one of the most fun core activities in the game: baling and wrapping resources. Check out the Launch Trailer!
The Göweil Pack is now available for PC and consoles and lets you put more material into bales, deploy autonomous machines on your farm, and enjoy some cool quality-of-life improvements!
With the Göweil Pack, you'll be able to transform even more resources into bales: Corn silage, sugar beet pulp, and mixed feed in addition to grass, hay, and straw. To achieve perfectly pressed bales, there is a variety of cool machines at your disposal.
While machines like the Göweil LT-Master F115 or VARIO-Master V140 let you put more resources into bales than before, you can also deploy autonomous machines like the G4010 Q Profi at your farm and benefit from their high efficiency without even moving them!
Meanwhile, roller wrappers like the Göweil G1015 attach to front loaders or three-point hitches and transport, wrap, and stack bales - with only one single machine. In addition, bale turners make your life easier and restrain bales from rolling downhill, optional silage additive tanks raise the bale quality. New bale grippers and bale forks definitely come in handy, too.
Machines Included In The Göweil Pack
Göweil LT-Master F115
Göweil VARIO-Master V140

The company was founded in 1988 in Kirchschlag (Upper Austria), where all machines are designed, developed and produced by currently around 250 employees.
While Göweil constantly grows, their machines become more and more popular all around the world. 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.
Get The Year 2 Season Pass!
If you want to extend your copy of the game with loads of new content, check out the Year 2 Season Pass! Especially, since you save money compared to buying the packs and the Platinum expansion separately. The Year 1 Season Pass continues to be available separately.
Please Note! The patch is currently being rolled out across platforms. It can take a couple of hours until the update becomes available on your system. Crossplay services may be affected in the meantime.
A new patch for Farming Simulator 22 is available for download. In preparation for the Göweil Pack (Release: March 21th), a new storage building is now available, in which you can store bales and pallets of any shape and size. Of course, this is for everyone - even if you don't own the Göweil Pack.
You can improve your gaming experience even more with the new graphics setting "Screenspace Shading Rate". As usual, the patch also contains a number of optimizations - you can find the complete list of changes below.

Enhanced Quality-of-Bale-Farming
There's more: 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. A small but substantial detail for baling enthusiasts: Net-binding in addition to foil-wrapping will be possible, too.
And if you're one of the clumsy ones, good news for you: Thanks to the addition of a bale turner, your days of chasing 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.

Platinum Preview: Collectibles & Points of Interest in Silverrun Forest
Your journey to and within Silverrun Forest is about to begin. With the Platinum Expansion and Platinum Edition releasing in a few days' time, on November 15th, there will be a lot of new content to explore - just like the new map itself with its points of interest. Let's check out some of them!
If you missed our previous news about new gameplay features and machines, you find all the previews in the list below.
Silverrun Forest consists of vast forests on hilly and sometimes challenging terrain - making it the most atmospheric and lush environment we did so far. Not only is Silverrun Forest populated by more than 20,000 trees - countless streams wind themselves through the forest and over ridges of the mountainous landscape.
Small ponds and lakes right in the middle of dense forests create serene spots to relax and to explore. It's especially atmospheric since our environment artists upgraded the seasonal visuals of Silverrun Forest, with the colors of grass and bushes changing more authentically than before.
Even in the village, the four seasons will be more present: With autumn leaves waving through the streets and tiny puddles appearing on the roads on rainy days.
There's a lot more to explore, namely the new collectibles we've hidden in the forests. Before we get to that, let's stay in town and take a look at what we find here on the business side of things.
Production Sites In Silverrun Forest
New selling points and production sites revolve mostly around harvested resources from the woods. We already took a deeper look into new production chains and construction projects - especially the rollercoaster and the boatyard. But, let's take a peek at some other businesses and points of interest in Silverrun Forest.
The iron ore mine will automatically produce iron, you can load up and process into metal.
At the pet accessories factory, you can produce new types of products to sell.
There are two saw mills. This one is especially fun as you unload logs into the water, which are then pulled in and processed.
Selling Points In Silverrun Forest
Of course, there are the usual places to go. Like the gas station, the dealership, or the train station. One of the most important selling points in Silverrun Forest is the market. You can sell almost anything here.
You like waffles? If you're also into producing goods like bread, butter or sugar, the local waffle hut will be excited when you visit.
The debris crusher is the place to go after you got rid of all those rocks in the woods with the Paladin SFB750, a hydraulic breaker.
Since forestry is the focus of the Platinum Expansion, there are multiple selling points to make money of all those harvested logs. Like the container warehouse - the perfect opportunity to use the new shipping containers.
Collectibles & Other Places To Visit
Exploring Silverrun Forest is not just about finding the perfect place for logging (friendly reminder that you better also do some reforesting instead of just taking everything!) and creating space for new businesses. If you keep your eyes open, there is a lot to find. Like our new collectibles that will be displayed in the local museum after you found them.
To collect all 20 wooden figurines we've hidden in Silverrun Forest, you will have to look closely while you wander through the woods.
How many can you find?
The Platinum Expansion and Platinum Edition (base game + expansion) release on November 15th for PC, Mac, PlayStation®5 (PS5™), Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One.
