Finally, hardcore farming enthusiasts can dip their virtual spades into Mother Russia's fertile soil. Farming Simulator 15's new "Gold" DLC gives you and whatever 15 friends you indentured into farmhand service a brand new virtual playground in Eastern Europe. Well, I say "playground." It really depends on how riled up you get about heavy machinery that can speed-harvest turnips.
When it comes to farming sims, most people fall into one of three categories: love 'em, never touched one, and OMG Harvest Moon. No matter which camp you belong to, this trailer's going to get you ready for Farming Simulator 15 on PS4 and Xbox One.

Ah, the life of a farmer. Leading a simple, unadorned life. Drinking Simpler Times lager. Reading "Simple Living" magazine. Catching squirrels and training them to relax on your porch on command. Building tiny rocking chairs so that they, too, can contemplate the wonders of this physical plane while they chew on their acorns. Assuming the moniker of "xxHardWorkEasyLivingxx" on a farming message board and flaming any cityfolk that dare post in that hallowed forum. Oh, and also playing Farming Simulator 15 on consoles.
I've got a brand new Farming Simulator 15 trailer and you have a brand new key. Let's put them both together in perfect harmony. Out already on PC, Farm Sim 15 is coming to consoles on May 19th; harvest-tastic.

And lo, after many weeks of teasing us pitiful mortals with trailer after trailer, Farming Simulator 15 has finally deemed us worthy of its grace, mercy, and new woodcutting feature. It has marked this glorious occasion by way of one final "launch trailer" so that we may gaze upon its glistening fertilizer spreaders to the tune of indie folk music.
We've got a handful of co-op releases this week, with one standout AAA game that we've already reviewed. What else is on tap? A fresh coat of paint on a 15 year old game and a new version of an odd yearly franchise.
Farming Simulator 15 says the best way for humankind to prove its dominance over nature is industrialized deforestation. In order to really lay the smackdown on those pesky forests, FS15 is sporting the latest in logging tech to ensure your inevitable, nearly effortless victory against those arrogant trees. Also, they have a vehicle called the "Scorpion King," which is part dune buggy, part prehensile metal jaw of death.
Like a glistening dragon plowing itself along a dirty ditch, there is something majestic about the sight of a throbbing farm machine. Bask in the glory of these magnificent beasts in the new trailer for Farming Simulator 15, a game that will allow you to combine your harvester with up to 15 other players.
Do you feel the unrelenting urge to harvest asparagus? Are you gripped with the desires to plant, and water, corn?
