Farming Simulator 25 harvested a crop of 2 million players in its first week

There's a tendency to view weird, complicated games that simulate real jobs as a niche market, but the Farming Simulator series has proven time and again: it's mainstream, baby. Farming Simulator 2025 launched one week ago and has already harvested more than two million players on all platforms. The sim also attracted over 125,000 concurrent players on Steam the day it launched.

That makes it the biggest launch in the history of the Farming Simulator series, which has been plowing along since way back in 2008.
