Release: October 27th 2026
There’s something new for all PC farmers: The Farming Simulator 25: Beans & Alpacas expansion brings new content to the farming simulator. As the name suggests, it centres on coffee beans and alpacas, amongst other things. The expansion takes you to Catuaí, a South America-inspired region featuring coffee plantations and red soil. You’ll grow coffee beans and raise alpacas – which you can shear and lead – as well as Brahman cattle. There are also new production chains, construction projects and more than 25 new machines, including some from newcomer Colombo Industries. We’ve also got a bundle for you. It includes the main game and the Beans & Alpacas expansion.
