It's been little over a year, and the official ModHub counts more than 4,500 mods available to download in Farming Simulator 25 since launch. That's a great display of passion and commitment from our modding community and, in short, we just want to say one thing:
THANK YOU!
To put it into perspective, this makes up for 60% of the mods that were released for Farming Simulator 22 in total (and in over three years), underlining how the community is growing. Of course, this doesn't count in all the other mod projects out there, like popular maps every fan has heard of.
No matter how you count and compare, few games see this high amount of user-generated content and dedication from its creator community, especially that soon after launch. With your contribution, Farming Simulator itself is growing, becoming whatever you want it to be.
COMMITTING TO MODS
Farming Simulator and the GIANTS Engine were conceived with mods in mind, and the fact that thousands of mods have been downloaded millions of times worldwide is not only reassuring, but also means that this success is destined to continue - and we're just as committed!
If you want to learn more about how we handle modding and why, check out our past article about our philosophy and learn how we test the mods:
Thanks to the crossplay-functionality, thousands of mods available on PC and consoles. At the same time, we're constantly improving modding tools, documentation, and internal testing workflows shaped by your feedback - all while hands-on testing your contributions through our QA team.
"We are grateful for the continued trust of the modding community and are thrilled to see that almost 90% of mods are now available on all platforms. Mods play a central role in keeping games interesting in the long run. At the same time, modding motivates many to become creative at an early age, develop technical skills, and perhaps even take the first step toward developing their own games."
Marcel Renke, UGC Platform Specialist @ GIANTS Software
