Coming May 25: Quality of Life Game Update + Highland Cows Pack Paid DLC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello ranchers,

We're excited to reveal a new game update and a new DLC launching on May 25!

Quality of Life Update

This game update, which will of course be available at no additional cost to all players, focuses on quality of life improvements.

For example, this update will stop animals scattering when purchased, add a sterilization gun so that you can prevent breeding and add the option to recover lost cars via a terminal in the car store.

A common issue, especially for those of you who have large ranches, is reduced performance due to large volumes of dead animals. To tackle this, dead animals will now be automatically skinned after a certain amount of time.

There's also a handful of optimisation improvements and bug fixes coming in this update.

Ranch Simulator: Highland Cows Pack

Also on May 25 we'll be launching a new paid DLC: the Highland Cows Pack!

Expand your farm with this world-famous Scottish cattle breed! Care for these adorable cows, milk them for produce and breed baby calves. These lovable cows are available in three different colours - black, white and ginger.

Ranch Simulator: Highland Cows Pack will cost $2.99/€2.99/£2.49.

Wishlist now to be notified at launch!
