If you’re familiar with FS 22 or 23, then FS 25 should be familiar to you. While FS 25 is yet to be released (it will be launched on November 12, 2024), it promises advanced features that will make farming more enjoyable than ever before. Earlier this year, FS 25 developers announced several platforms and devices that will host this game, making many game enthusiasts wonder if it will be available on mobile devices, especially iPhones.
Well, if this is what you’re also thinking right now, we’ve got good news for you. In this blog, we’ll let you know if you can play FS 25 on your iPhone. We’ll also reveal the general benefits and limitations of this highly anticipated game for you. Let’s begin!
Will FS 25 Be Available On iPhone?
Unfortunately, there is no information from the developer (Giant Software) that farming simulator 25 mods will be available on any mobile device, including iPhones. As of today, only Playstations 5, Xbox Series X/S, MacOS, and Microsoft Windows are the platforms that have been officially announced to host FS 25. If you’re an iPhone user with a strong passion for farming simulators, you can try another version of the game. For example, FS 18, 20, and 23 are all available for free on iPhones.
Benefits Of Playing FS 25 on iPhone
Once FS 25 is fully operational and the iPhone version is available, installing and playing it will provide several benefits. Let’s explore some of them.
- Support Mods: Like the older versions, FS 25 supports mods—an extension created by players from different sites such as Modland, which enables you to customize the game to your taste. With FS25 Mods, you can easily add new tools, crops, animals, vehicles, and other features that could make the game more interesting.
- Vibrant Graphics: Another remarkable feature you’ll enjoy while playing FS 25 is improved graphics with a more realistic landscape. The game is now equipped with more advanced lighting and shadow dynamics, which work together to give your crops and farm tools a stunning and mouth-watering appearance.
- Dynamic Weather and Realistic Landscape: To complement the game’s graphics, FS 25, unlike its predecessors, now has a more realistic landscape and improved weather dynamic effect. Crops, buildings, and soil now have a natural texture. Climatic elements such as rain, fog, and snow are simulated with corresponding visual changes in the environment, making it more appealing than the older versions.
- Wide Varieties of Crops: Unlike before, players can now have access to up to 25 crops in FS 25. Notable among these crops are rice and spinach. This means you can now begin to cultivate rice in the game. Interestingly, you can cultivate both standard and long-grain rice in FS 25. Moreover, the game has a greenhouse mechanic where you can quickly grow rice saplings, so you don’t need to worry about where to source rice seedlings. In this game, harvesting your rice when it is mature is pretty straightforward. You can either use a traditional harvester or a combined harvester, depending on the type of rice.
- Cutting-edge Equipment Designs: As of now, more than 400 vehicles and tools are reported to feature in this highly anticipated game. The most fascinating part is that each of this equipment comes with cutting-edge designs that will keep you glued to the screen and make your work easier. In FS 25, you can easily customize equipment in FS 25 to suit any terrain or farming need.
- Unlimited AI Workers: Every farmer dreams of farming becoming less tedious and complex, and this can be achieved through the use of AI technology. Thankfully, FS 25 features AI workers with GPS features to improve your farming efficiency and productivity. These AI workers will be fully involved in every farming stage, and they can be effective when executing complex farming tasks such as crop rotation, plowing, fertilizer application, and logistics.
Other benefits you’ll enjoy include buffalo ranching, access to East Asian maps, a large farmers market, and many more. But keep in mind that playing FS 25 on an iPhone may come with its own risks, which we’ll discuss in the next section.
Limitations of Playing FS 25 on iPhone
Since the developer is still deciding whether to release an iPhone version of FS 25, estimating the potential limitations of playing the game on iPhones is not straightforward. However, by looking at older versions available on mobile devices, we can predict some possible limitations for FS 25 on iPhones. Here are our assumptions.
- Lagging: Unlike other platforms, playing FS 25 on iPhones may cause lagging, especially when the graphic is set to the highest level.
- Limited Mods Support: Compared to other platforms like Playstations or Windows, iPhones may not allow users to customize gameplay using mods.
- Map with Less Information: Due to the small size of mobile devices, including iPhones, the farm map size can also be small and less informative on iPhone interfaces. Generally, the larger the screen size, the bigger and more detailed the farm map.
- Some Functionalities May Be Basic: Some functions, such as AI, GPS, and crop management tools, maybe basic on iPhones.
Final Thoughts
Though the official date for launching FS 25 has been announced, there has yet to be any official information as to whether a version that is compatible with the iPhone will be available as of now. However, given the large number of iPhone users worldwide, we hope the developers will consider creating a suitable version so that iPhone users can also enjoy the seamless farming experience FS 25 promises to deliver.
