Farming Simulator 17 will make its debut next week at Focus Home’s upcoming What’s Next press event in Paris, where developer Giants Software will announce what new features and changes fans of the series can expect.

"Farming Simulator is a one of a kind story in the video game industry. Years ago, we imagined a unique destiny for this game and Giants Software, their creators,” said Cédric Lagarrigue, the President of Focus Home Interactive. It is with great satisfaction that we succeed in reaching all of our objectives.”

Lagarrigue also spoke optimistically about the future of the franchise. “There are still a lot of beautiful pages to write for Farming Simulator, and it starts right now with the simultaneous release of the game on PC and consoles at the end of the year," he said.

No official release date has been confirmed for Farming Simulator 17, though we do know it will be coming some time in late 2016, and to both PC and consoles simultaneously.
