News and premieres at FarmCon: Publisher and developer GIANTS Software uses its annual community event for numerous announcements around Farming Simulator 22. FarmCon 22 will take place as a hybrid event from July 21st to 24th. The event starts with an international stream on the official Twitch channel on Thursday evening at 8pm CEST, followed by a weekend of face-to-face meetings directly at John Deere in Mannheim, Germany.
Updates, Insider Knowledge and New Announcements
GIANTS Software is using July 21st as a kickoff event and appetizer for the FarmCon weekend: In the approximately two-hour stream, the developers will show the progress of their current work and give an overview of what fans can still expect this year. Thursday night's show highlights:
First look at Platinum Expansion featuring various machines and new map Silverrun Forest
Unveiling of two new packs, both yet announced products coming later this year
Feature on modding
A look across the pond to Kubota in the USA
Retrospective on the topic of Precision Farming
Stage Program from Mannheim in Stream
>From 10am CEST the FarmCon will start live from the John Deere Forum in Mannheim on July 23rd. GIANTS Software expects more than 700 guests, who can look forward to much more detailed lectures and presentations of the topics touched on Thursday. GIANTS Software will simultaneously translate the predominantly German-language stage program and thus transport the fascination of FarmCon out into the world via the official Twitch channel.
In addition to insights into the Platinum Expansion and the two newly announced packs, fans can expect a Baling Royale competition in which participants virtually stack bales against the clock, the personal meeting with GIANTS Software employees from all four branches, and a panel of two German content creators.
"The anticipation for FarmCon is growing daily – we have so much new stuff in store and can't wait to share our fruits of labor with our community" said Boris Stefan, Head of Publishing at GIANTS Software. "Besides the product news for Farming Simulator 22, I'm most looking forward to the personal conversations in a familiar atmosphere."
FarmCon is the official and annual community event for modders, developers and players of the Farming Simulator series. Since 2016, fans have been gathering at FarmCon to interact with GIANTS Software and like-minded gamers.
