How to play cross-platform in Farming Simulator 25

There’s nothing better than some good old-fashioned farming. Tending to your crops and livestock is peaceful and tranquil (for the most part), and Farming Simulator 25 has plenty of it for you to enjoy.

But what’s better than farming? Doing it with friends, of course. And we’re here to let you know how you can play cross-platform in Farming Simulator 25.

Is Farming Simulator 25 cross-platform?

Yes, Farming Simulator 25 is fully crossplay-capable, and you can play multiplayer with friends on any platform or console. Players can join up together in aᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ server of up to six in total for cross-platform, and if everyone is on PC, you can be in servers of up to 16. 

There are three different ways you can enj𝓀oy cross-platform play in the game𝔍, including creating a new server, joining a server in progress, or renting a dedicated server.

How to play multiplayer cross-platform in Farming Simulator 25

To join or start a crossplay server, you’ll need to be on the main menu for Farming Simulator 25 and select mul𝓀tiplayer from the list. Then, you’ll fꩲind the three options: join a game, create a game, or rent a dedicated server.

Choose to create if you want to host the server and have friﷺends join up in your world. Once you choose one of the save slots, you can set the name of the same and the password required to join, and you’ll be provided with a port number. You can c♌hange that number if you wish. Make sure that allowing crossplay is toggled on so any players can join you. 

From there, you can choose typical options for the game, such as what Farming Simulator 25 map to play on, how many players to have, and so on.

Joining a server is simple, all you need to do is look up you🍸r friends’ server through the in-game menu, look up servers by name, or join a random♚ one from the list. Whatever you choose, you’ll be free to jump into a server hosted by a friend or stranger and play together.

Running a dedicated server is a bit trickier. You’ll also need to be comfortable making additional purchases, which can turn many players off. But it does come with the benefit of having the server running even when you’re offline, as w﷽ell as added security and better performance for the ga🎃me. 

Renting a dedicated server is only recommended for the most hardcore of players. Most players purchase a second copy of the game to get the server up and running and have to host it through a second device. That’s whyꦫ standard cross-play is recommended.
