Just like any automobile enthusiast, farmers know: a garage just can’t be big enough. Developer and publisher GIANTS Software releases a new trailer to provide agricultural machine lovers with a foretaste of what’s to come on November 14th with the Premium Expansion and Premium Edition of Farming Simulator 22.
In the official Garage Trailer, selected machines are highlighted in style, while the company’s video department resuscitated their fondness of electronic freestyle hip-hop of the mid-80s and early 90s.
Watch the official Garage trailer below:
Plenty of New Brands & Machines
Atop more than 400 machines of the base game, the Premium Expansion adds over 35 new items from newcomer manufacturers Dewulf, Gorenc, Agrio & WIFO, plus even more machines by BEDNAR, Fiat, GRIMME, Kverneland, SaMASZ & others. The new additions also push the number of available real-world brands and their authentically digitized machines in Farming Simulator 22 to over 150.
More Authentic Than Ever
To prepare the fields in Zielonka, the Premium Expansion’s new map, and care for the new crops, GIANTS Software adds a variety of machines to sow, harvest and tend to the soil. Carrots, parsnips, and red beet have special requirements, so rotary hillers like the GRIMME GF 800 to create ridges before sowing, and various harvesting machines like the highlight machine Dewulf ZKIVSE vegetable harvester are required to care for them.
All of them, as usual, are authentically digitized – with even more care applied to moving parts and other mechanical details, resulting in even more realistic machinery. A complete list of all machines, various placeables, and other items included in the Premium Expansion is available at farming-simulator.com.
Farming Simulator 22 is available for PC, Mac, PlayStation®5 (PS5™), Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One. The Premium Edition (and the stand-alone add-on Premium Expansion) will be released on November 14th for the same formats and includes two expansions and seven packs in addition to the full version. Further information can be found on the official Farming Simulator website.

We’ve stuffed it with as much lore, exploration, danger and joy as we could fit,” said Jon-Paul Dumont, Game Director, Free Range Games. “But this isn’t the end! With the support of our incredible community, this is just the start of our adventures in Khazad-dûm.”
“We are thrilled to launch The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria, and can’t wait for survival crafting fans to create their Dwarves and step into the Fourth Age of Middle-earth to explore the iconic world of J.R.R. Tolkien,” noted John Miller, CEO, North Beach Games. “Free Range Games was the perfect partner for this endeavor; Their vision for the project, dedication to the lore and expertise in the genre combined to create a deeply engaging and satisfying experience that we hope fans of both survival crafting and The Lord of the Rings will enjoy.”
The story of The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moriatakes players beyond the books and into the Fourth Age of Middle-earth, the fantastical world created by J.R.R. Tolkien. Summoned to the Misty Mountains by Lord Gimli Lockbearer (voiced in-game by actor John Rhys-Davies), players band together as a company of Dwarves tasked to reclaim the lost spoils from the Dwarven homeland of Moria — known as Khazad-dûm or Dwarrowdelf — in the depths below their very feet. Their quest will require fortitude and teamwork, delving deep into the Mines of Moria to recover its treasures in the hopes of one day restoring them to their former glory.
In The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moriaplayers will create their own custom Dwarf before venturing into the cavernous mines of Moria alone or together with a company of fellow Dwarves online. Each adventure into the depths will bring unique challenges and opportunities through the use of procedurally generated environments, creating nearly endless possibilities as players seek the deepest delves of the Dwarves. As they venture ever deeper, the Dwarves will need to ensure their metal is ready to meet the dangers that lie within, crafting resilient armors and finely honed weapons capable of protecting against and defeating all manner of goblin, arachnoid, or more mysterious foes they may encounter. Excavate the mysteries of the Misty Mountains, extract precious metals prized by Dwarves, rebuild and refire forges that have long since gone cold, and learn the secret of the Shadow that lurks within.
The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria Key Game Features:

Base Building: Find solace from the darkness. Reveal and clear new locations to create architecture on a grand scale. Get creative and construct bases from scratch or build upon the existing environment. Beware the evils which seek to destroy Dwarven progress.
Rebuild and Reshape Moria: Restore the long-lost ancient kingdom of Khazad-dûm to its former glory, recovering Dwarven landmarks as the story progresses. Resurrect old mines and refire their forges to yield their untouched resources.

Mine Ore and Jewels: Establish mines to unearth deposits of precious resources such as iron, gold, and quartz; and fantastical materials such as Mithril. Access crafting stations and forges to convert ore to ingots and upgrade gear. But be prepared, mining is loud and can awaken what lurks in the darkness.
Boost Your Spirit with Drink and Song: Nothing boosts spirits and morale quite like an ale by the hearth. Build your own dwarven brewery, craft a brew and join in dwarven drinking songs with your party.
Comprehensive Dwarf Builder: Players become part of Dwarven Legend as they create their own Dwarf in the custom character creator. Dwarves can be customized in a variety of ways to create a unique Dwarven identity. Then, during gameplay, players can find and craft armor and weapons to further enhance their unique style.
