Project Motor Racing – powered by Giants’ game engine

April 29, 2025

The game developer Straight4 Studios and Giants Software have released a new reveal trailer for their project aptly named Project Motor Racing.

The new racing game makes use of Giants’ game engine developed for their Farming Simulator series and is subsequently to be published by Giants Software.

It will include more than 70 vehicles, both current and historical, from ten racing classes and 27 track layouts. Each car is meticulously recreated and licensed from real world manufacturers like Lamborghini, Aston Martin, and Audi.

Project Motor Racing will be released this fall for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S. A more exact date is yet to be determined.

New Kenworth truck for American Truck Simulator

April 24, 2025

SCS Software has released yet another free truck for American Truck Simulator. This time it is the Kenworth W900 Legacy Edition, celebrating that 280 000 W900 units have been produced since its release.

Missouri is available

April 4, 2025

The next map add-on for American Truck Simulator is here. Since yesterday, April 3, it is possible to buy the Missouri DLC and start exploring the vast lands between Kansas City and Saint Louis.

As is tradition, the launch also means it’s time for a new World of Trucks event – Cruising Missouri. The reward for completion of the personal goal – which is to deliver cargo to or from all 12 cities in the state – is a Beast of Burden ATS truck paint job.

Horsch AgroVation map is back

March 7, 2025

The official Horsch AgroVation map has now been updated by Giants for Farming Simulator 25.

This somewhat special map is based on Horsch’s real facility in the Czech Republic used for research and testing of their farming equipment and – somewhat to my own surprise – it actually became my favourite Giants’ made official map in Farming Simulator 22. The different field sizes in combination with a nicely done and decorated realistic map is quite satisfying for some reason.

Another returning map from Farming Simulator 22 is the Silverrun Forest map which is available for FS25 since February 26.

Silverrun Forest with its inspiration from the North American Pacific northwest is a map mostly focused on forestry, even if it of course also has some possibilities for agricultural work.

To the shore of the Great Lakes

February 14, 2025

SCS Software has revealed the next US state in their work pipeline for American Truck Simulator and it will be the one state needed to complete the classical Route 66 distance between Chicago and Los Angeles.

So Illinois it is. Or will be, more exactly, since there are some states queued up to be released before this.

Farming Simulator 25 is released

November 13, 2024

Yesterday Giants Software released their latest iteration of Farming Simulator. The new Farming Simulator 25 builds upon the earlier versions in the series and has on top of a selection of the assets which were added through the DLCs to FS22 also a slew of entirely new things.

And of course a real review of the game here is in the works. (Edit: The review can now be found here.)

The three maps coming with FS25

November 8, 2024

All three maps which will be available in Farming Simulator 25 now have their separate intro videos.

In order of novelty the first one is the East Asian-inspired Hutan Pantai, which of course will be the perfect map to try out both the new rice crops as well as the new water buffalo livestock.

The second map is the American Riverbend Springs map. Even if maybe not as well-known, there are parts of the US where rice cultivation is possible and this map naturally is depicting one such area.

The third map is the Polish-inspired Zielonka map from the DLC for Farming Simulator 22, now updated to a Farming Simulator 25 map. While maybe not the most natural map to try out the rice on, it will be very good for testing out the new vegetable crops like spinach. Or the goats.

All the maps will of course make use of all the new things coming in Farming Simulator 25, such as the new weather effects, ground deformation, a built-in GPS, and more.

Farming Simulator 25 will be released on 12 November but can already be pre-ordered if you want to start as soon as you can on the 12th.

Planet Coaster 2 launches

November 6, 2024

Frontier’s sequel to their first Planet Coaster game is today released to the world. Just like in its predecessor, the goal is to construct the best – and profitable – park possible.

The spiritual successor to the old Rollercoaster Tycoon games as well as Planet Coaster, Planet Coaster 2 provides the player with the tools to make a detailed theme park filled with rides, food venues, and other attractions.

Farming Simulator 25 garage trailer

November 5, 2024

No, not that kind of trailer. The other, video thing kind. Although there’s at least one trailer to be seen in the trailer.

Farming Simulator 25 will be released November 12.
