Today, Giants Software revealed it’ll be bringing back the Straw Hat Pack for its hit agricultural title, Farming Simulator 25, and that it is available now for free.
Farming Simulator 25 Straw Harvest Pack brings plenty of new fixtures and features alongside it, including specialized machines, tools, and other resources to help you tend to your land. These will all be from reputable and well-known brands, like KRONE and Bressel und Lade.
The KRONE Premos 5000 is one of the biggest highlight machines of this pack, introducing mobile pellet harvesting to players for the first time. It produces pellets by collecting straw and hay swaths from the field, and can also be operated stationary with an additional bale shredder. It is joined by two balers, the KRONE BIG Pack 1290 HDP II and Comprima V180 XC, and various other machines that are designed to handle bales and pallets with ease.




Farming Simulator 25 Straw Harvest Pack also adds an industry hall that extends your farming operation with more storage and processing of goods. Here, pellets can be sold, used for animal bedding, or fed to animals, alongside introducing lots of new possibilities with its configurations. Adding an automatic palletizer will even allow further processed pellets, which can then be sold at an even higher profit.
Since its release in 2008, the Farming Simulation series has had a huge impact on the simulation genre as a whole. Across eight mainline titles and five mobile games, the franchise has sold over 25 million copies combined and had 90 million mobile downloads.
Farming Simulator 25 is available now for PC, Mac, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. You can also get the whole Year 1 Season Pass for $29.99, which includes the Plains & Prairies pack, two more packs, and the upcoming expansion.
