Farming Simulator 22, the tractor game that sells more than most AAA this year

Farming Simulator is a series of farming simulation video games established by Giants Software program. The locations are based on the United States and also European environments. Players can grow, increasing cattle, grow as well as offer properties developed from farming.

Video games have these things that do not stop surprising us and make us fly our head. Who would think that Farming Simulator 22 was going to become one of the best-selling games of the year? The series is quite popular, and every time your interest is growing. For sample, a tractor.

Farming Simulator 22 is available from November 22 and has sold more than 1.5 million copies only in the week of its premiere, surpassing the record of the franchise, as they count from NGC. I am very proud of the team and the prosperous environment that surrounds him. Successfully building international structures to transfer a series already huge as Farming Simulator to a self-publishing brand with new impulses is not something that is taken for granted, said the Executive Director by Giant Software, Christian Amman.

But, beyond that it is already a quite surprising figure, it will help to put it in value these data, focused on AAA games that have come out this year. For example, the new Ratchet and Clank has sold something more than 1.1 million copies, while Rural, the new PS5 exclusive, is over 560,000 since April, according to the data provided.

We can put more examples. Metro id Dread, the latest delivery of the popular Saga for Nintendo Switch, has been the best premiere in the history of the brand with just over 800,000 units in the US and about 200,000 in Japan. If we add the UK and Europe data from its first month, the data will be similar to those of Farming Simulator 22, although in the tractor game we talk about harvested figures in just one week.

Farming Simulator 22 is currently available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, PS4, PS5, PC and Google Stadia. It has more than 400 machines and tools different from 100 real brands along with unique farms from different territories in the world.
