Farming Simulator 25 System Requirements: Can Your PC or Mac run it?

Farming Simulator 25 is about to be released! The most advanced farming game will be made available on November 12th, 2024. Then, millions of existing FS gamers will begin their migration to the newest, and the most advanced version of this game. However, one question still remains for anyone looking to purchase and download this game: “can my computer run it?”

In this article, we’ll take a look at the confirmed Farming Simulator 25 system requirements on PC and Mac, and help you understand whether your current rig will be able to handle it. Whether you’re looking for some regular gameplay on minimum settings, or look to employ various texture or content mods, pushing this game to the limit – you need to know if your computer is ready, before purchasing the game. Or maybe, you would be better off purchasing some new PC parts first.

Farming Simulator 25 PC System Requirements (Minimum)

There are some good news for everyone rocking their old potato system, or a work-focused laptop, more suited for making spreadsheets, rather than hardcore gaming. GIANTS Software continues its commitment to making Farming Simulator games available for those with less powerful systems.

Here are the minimum PC requirements for Farming Simulator 25:

• Operating system: Windows 10 64bit
• Processor: Intel Core i5-6400, AMD Ryzen 5 1400 or better
• Memory: 8 GB
• Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050Ti, AMD Radeon RX 470 graphics card or better (3GB VRAM minimum)
• DirectX 12
• Storage: 35 GB
• Sound card

Let’s take a deeper look at what the minimum FS25 PC requirements mean for you:

Just like previously, FS25 will work “just fine” on any medium-range PC of 9 years ago. FS22, released in 2021, worked well on machines from 2012.

The minimum recommended CPU for FS25 came out in 2015, and it’s a low-to-medium range processor with the starting price of under $200/€200. The GPU came out in 2016, and cost just about the same.

One important change is the requirement for DirectX 12. FS22 was working on DirectX 11 – if your hardware doesn’t support this suite, or you don’t have it set up, the game will not work.

The minimum requirements of FS25 are slightly lower to the recommended requirements of FS22. The jump from CPU requirements is bigger than the GPU requirements. If you were able to comfortably run FS22 on medium or higher, FS25 should work pretty well. If you were already having loading time issues or frame drops of FS22, FS25 would be too big of a bite to swallow.

Farming Simulator 25 PC System Requirements (Recommended)

Let’s continue by taking a look at the recommended requirements for FS25 – and see what kind of gaming rig you will need to enjoy the latest Farming Simulator game at its best, with high graphics, smooth gameplay, and minimal loading times.

These are the recommended Farming Simulator 25 PC requirements:

• OS version: Windows 10 64bit
• Processor: Intel Core i7-10700, AMD Ryzen 5 1500X or better
• Memory: 12 GB
• GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070, AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT, Intel Arc A750 graphics card or better (8GB VRAM or more)
• DirectX 12
• Storage: 35 GB
• Sound card

Here you will notice a pretty large jump at the GPU department. You will need mid-range hardware from 2019 and onwards in order to enjoy the best FS25 experience. It makes sense – Farming Simulator 25 is a game heavily relying on customization and mods. In order to load the game with additional features and not suffer from any performance issues, you will need a semi-respectable PC.

However, the right PC for Farming Simulator 25 won’t be expensive. We expect that today, a rig capable of running Farming Simulator 25 on medium or high settings would cost around $1,000/€1,000.

Farming Simulator 25 Mac System Requirements (Minimum and Recommended)

There haven’t been any official FS25 Mac system requirements released to the public. However, we can easily estimate what you can expect: and here’s what we think.

Farming Simulator 22 was able to run on M1 Pro Macbooks on medium at 60 fps on 1920×1200 resolution, moving down to 40 fps on high. The Farming Simulator games run natively on Metal, making these results as high as they possibly can be.

Given the CPU and graphical requirements increasing from the previous version of the game, we believe that you will need an Apple Silicon Macbook in order to run FS25 properly.

M1 Macbook Air, the cheapest Apple Silicon Macbook right now, should be able to run FS25 on low, while for higher graphics and higher resolutions, you will need to update to more recent hardware versions.

What else to consider when choosing a PC or Mac for Farming Simulator 25?

When choosing the right computer for Farming Simulator 25, it’s important to leave some room for optimization. Futureproofing your PC is always a good idea – and a slightly better CPU will be a good idea, if you are looking to load plenty of new mods to your FS25 game.

Mods are an integral part of Farming Simulator, adding plenty of new features, vehicles, maps, and even bug fixes. While many mods have absolutely no effect on your game performance, if you are looking to get completely new user interfaces, or even mess around with cheats, it’s always a good idea to get a computer that lets you play around with the game even more than the developers have planned.

But even then, you don’t need an amazing computer to play FS25 with mods, on pretty good settings. Unlike many other new games, Farming Simulator series is very forgiving when it comes to the required hardware. If your computer is somewhat recent, it will be able to return for the new title – and let you go on some amazing farming adventures!

Farming Simulator 25 will be released on November 12th, 2024 – on PC, Mac, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X.
