*Farming Simulator 25* New Pack Is Live! Wild Boars Have Started Wrecking Homes

If you've still been busy running your farm in Farming Simulator 25 lately, this update will most likely make you rethink your fieldwork workflow. SEGA has confirmed that this farming simulation game, which has already surpassed 4 million copies sold worldwide, released the paid expansion pack "VREDO Pack" on March 24, 2026. Its core value is not simply adding a few more machines, but pushing the idea of "precision farming" one step further.

This expansion adds 2 new brands, 12 types of agricultural machinery, and a new wild animal, the "wild boar." Naturally, the most prominent additions are the Vredo machines, such as the DZ5 Agri Air 580 Twin, DZ5 Agri 290 Air, VREDO VT7138, the PROFI series, and the Evers Agro Toric 48-672, all of which are clearly designed around grassland fertilization, overseeding, and improving soil nutrient efficiency. In other words, this is not a flashy "looks good parked in the garage" update, but a content patch more focused on production-chain efficiency and operational depth.

From the perspective of sandbox simulation, I think the greatest value of this kind of DLC is that it gives players more choices on the same plot of land in terms of "how to plant" and "how to maintain the soil," rather than just repeating the fixed loop of sowing, harvesting, and selling. Especially since the base game had already introduced East Asian settings, Asian rice cultivation, 2 types of rice and spinach as new crops, bringing the total number of cultivable crops to 25. Add in buffalo, goats, new production chains, and construction tasks, and farm management is increasingly becoming an agricultural sandbox with freely adjustable parameters.

But the truly interesting part is the new threat: the "wild boar." Like typhoons, hail, and other natural disasters, it becomes a new variable that can damage crops. For players who like stable, optimized runs and precise profit calculations, this is obviously not good news; but for simulation enthusiasts, risk has always been part of management. The more disruptions there are—weather, pests and diseases, animal activity—the less the farm feels like a mere production-line map.

As for purchasing, I would more strongly recommend that players planning to stick with the game for the long term go straight for the "Year 2 Season Pass." According to the official information, the pass not only includes the "VREDO Pack," but also 2 additional add-on packs, a major DLC, and the bonus JCB WFT, that "world's fastest tractor." The original source also mentions that the pass can offer up to a 30% discount. In terms of value for money alone, it is definitely more suitable for dedicated players than buying individual packs; if you just want to try out the new equipment, then picking up the VREDO Pack separately is the more straightforward option.

At present, Farming Simulator 25 is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC (Steam, Epic Games Store, Windows), and MAC, with support for up to 6-player multiplayer. Whether you prefer slowly tending your farm alone or dividing up tasks with friends on a large-scale farm, the game offers different rhythms of play. Since its founding in 2004, GIANTS Software has consistently been pushing this series toward greater detail, realism, and freedom. The VREDO Pack may not be the kind of major update that instantly transforms the game's identity, but it does add another layer of depth to the agricultural sandbox of Farming Simulator 25. For players who enjoy studying machinery, workflows, and business-management details, this is exactly the kind of content that hits the mark.
