This is a DLC expansion for Farming Simulator 19, released in 2019, requiring the base game to play. It enhances the core simulation gameplay by adding 13 highly detailed tools from the Anderson Group, focusing specifically on advanced round and square bale handling, processing, and wrapping. Distinctive features include specialized machinery like the HYBRID X XTRACTOR and various mixers and bale movers, deepening the existing forage management mechanics without introducing new story elements.
The primary focus of this add-on is the introduction of specialized equipment from the Anderson Group, specifically centered around the handling and processing of round and square bales. This expansion adds 13 highly detailed tools to the player's arsenal, significantly deepening the capabilities related to forage and bale management.
Key additions include several specialized wrappers and movers designed for efficiency in handling harvested materials:
Beyond wrapping and moving, the DLC introduces machinery for processing and mixing feed. Players gain access to new mixers, including the Anderson Group A700 and A950. Furthermore, the package features dedicated bale processors like the Anderson Group PRO-CHOP150, which handles both round and square bales, allowing for more nuanced feed preparation on the farm.
As a DLC, this content requires the base game, Farming Simulator 19, to be operational. It is not a standalone experience. The new machinery becomes immediately accessible within the existing in-game shop interface, allowing players to integrate these specialized tools into their current farming operations, whether they are managing existing save files or starting a new career. The scope of this content is focused purely on machinery expansion, adding depth to the existing gameplay loops surrounding harvesting, packaging, and storage of forage crops.
The standout features are the unique high-capacity machinery designed for specific bale tasks. For instance, the inclusion of the Anderson Group BioBaler WB-55, complete with its dedicated bumper attachment, offers specific solutions for bio-material handling. Additionally, the Anderson Group M160 Log Loader provides specialized utility for forestry aspects of the simulation, broadening the applicability of the new equipment beyond standard crop management.
