Harvesting enthusiasts will be happy to know that a free update for Farming Simulator 22 is now available for download. Developer Giants Software has partnered up with some well-known brands, including Dutch manufacturer Plöger and Swiss company Motorex.
That said, Patch 1.3 introduces eight new vehicles and tools to the game, which is headlined by the AT 5104 LNMS - a four-wheeled manure spreader from Plöger. What’s interesting is that this vehicle is not commercially available yet, so you’ll be the first to operate it in this virtual farming sim.
Another notable addition is the electric slope compensation, which is present in the Fendt IDEAL PL and Massey Ferguson IDEAL PL. This feature allows the header of various harvesters to adjust itself automatically to sloped terrain.
Some quality-of-life improvements have been implemented as well. For instance, you now can sell some of your vehicles and tools when loading a save. This is a lifesaver, especially if your saved game has many assets that are too heavy to load on older consoles.
