We released Free Content Update #5 for Farming Simulator 25. Patch 1.17 included! We're adding two new machines alongside various improvements. Find out more below.

**Please Note!** The patch is being rolled out across platforms. It can take some time until the update becomes available on your system. Crossplay services may be affected in the meantime.

**Kramer KT 557**

The first addition is the Kramer KT 557 telehandler. It's a robust telehandler designed for heavy-duty agricultural and construction tasks, powered by a Deutz engine and advanced handling systems.
