Farming Simulator 20 is launching on Nintendo Switch next month and to celebrate, Focus Home Interactive has shared a new Pokémon-inspired trailer.
Actually arriving on both Switch and mobile devices on the same day, the series is said to have grown with lots of new gameplay additions including new machinery and crops with cotton and oats, as well as a whole new North American environment to explore and develop as you like. There's also the addition of John Deere, said to be the largest agriculture machinery company in the world, and you can now ride and tend to horses.
A press release for the game says that you'll be able to enjoy more than 100 faithfully reproduced farming vehicles and tools, some of which you can see in the new trailer above. As you'll also see in the video, the release date is now confirmed to be 3rd December.
Will you be getting your farm on with Farming Simulator 20? Let us know if you'll be keeping an eye out for it in the comments below.

I HATE grinding , but for some reason i really really really want to try one of these farm sims.
I also put 133 hours in to Euro Truck Sim 2.
Make of that what you want.
Gotta farm em all? You can't even catch em all anymore.
@NIN10DOXD gotta catch some of them!
It would be nice if this time we get the dlc, I got the earlier game based on 17 and Switch never got the dlc, plus the even smaller file size of 20 worries me (the games are always around 3gb, under 1gb is worrying)
@ballistic90 But not too many. It's to hard for one of the world's most profitable developers because they choose to keep a smaller staff than most studios with less than half the money.
Trying to cash in on the Pokemon craze eh? I wonder how many kids dieing for the new Pokemon game will now be opening a copy of Farming Simulator 20 on Christmas morning because of confused parents.
Then Farming Simulator 21 arrives with 5 crops and 10 machines missing and all hell breaks loose!
Comes out the same day as the mobile version eh?
Doesn't sound promising. Sounds like we're getting a toned down version again. Lots of red flags with this one. I bet no multiplayer for this version either.
I'm already disappointed and the game is not even out yet.
@NIN10DOXD
And they can be even more profitable if they cut the amount of content they’d have to do and spec the presentation to be just 3DS+. They created this PR nightmare because they won’t evolve after Switch removed their safety blanket of vastly inferior hardware, they probably would have liked a 4DS (DS3?) with a 480p screen with hardware on par with a iPhone 5S which would have been likely if Wii U wasn’t such a tremendous bomb.
I totally regretted buying the last version of this game on the Switch.
I dunno, farming in Rune Factory is hard enough but it has combat too. Does this farming simulator 20 let you take the farming machines off road? What about sabotaging your neighbors farm? Can you run over the neighbors kids? Hmm, I dunno if I will get this. There needs to be like run from cops action or something in it.
@Xylnox
I love that idea already.
@Rayquaza2510 the reason why it's smaller this time around, is because this one is the mobile version. The uneven years like 17 and 19 are made for pc and consoles, while the even years like 18 and 20 are made for mobiles. Not sure why they think the Switch deserves the mobile version, but unfortunately that's the version they're bringing.
@DrkBndr it is not the mobile version, the devs already confirmed that this is regular 19 but they called it 20 because the release is a year later.
The true mobile versions are even smaller, around 150mb, and more restrictive (but fun in their own way, I played them on my PS Vita back then because of physical buttons)
No multiplayer (again, really!?), no buy
only good farming game on the Switch is Stardew Valley it's next big update gonna be great
Can it do permaculture though..?
That music is straight from #idarb
