Farming Simulator 19: a Steam Gift for the full farming sim
Farming Simulator 19 is the entry where Giants Software's long-running series really grew up. A new graphics engine, 300+ authentic machines and — for the first time in franchise history — vehicles under the John Deere brand. You get Farming Simulator 19 from us as a Steam Gift: our bot sends it to your library, and you receive the full base game — climb into a tractor, plough, sow, harvest and build your farming empire at your own pace.
What's in the gift
This is the Standard edition — the full base game with no separate paid add-ons. It already includes both maps: the European Felsbrunn with its cosy hills and fields, and the North American Ravenport with wide-open space for big machinery. Separate DLC such as John Deere Cotton, Anderson Group, Kverneland & Vicon or the large Alpine Farming expansion are not included — you can grab them later if you want, but they're not required to enjoy the full game.
Machinery: 300+ vehicles and the long-awaited John Deere
The pride of the nineteenth entry is its fleet. It packs over 300 models from real manufacturers: John Deere, Case IH, New Holland, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, Challenger, Valtra, Deutz-Fahr, Krone and dozens more. The arrival of John Deere was the event of the year for series fans — players had waited years for that iconic green-and-yellow brand. Tractors, harvesters, ploughs, seeders, sprayers, trailers — all with detailed models and believable field behaviour.
Fields, crops and animals
Farming Simulator 19 has thirteen crops: wheat, barley, canola, sunflowers, soybeans, corn, oat, oilseed radish, potatoes, sugar beet, poplar, sugarcane and cotton. The last two are new to this entry and noticeably widen the farm economy. The full loop is alive: ploughing, sowing, tending, harvesting, selling and reinvesting profit into new machinery and land.
Livestock is here too: cows, sheep, pigs and chickens return, while horses are an entirely new species for the series. They don't breed, but with proper care and training they turn into valuable five-star steeds worth selling. It's a separate little mechanic that breaks up the usual field-work routine.
Career, multiplayer and mods
You can play solo in career mode, slowly buying up fields and expanding your fleet, or co-op with friends on a shared farm. A real strength of the series is its huge modding community: the official ModHub adds new machinery, maps and mechanics, so the game keeps living for years after release. There's also an important feature — crop destruction: vehicles flatten the harvest if you drive straight across a field (it can be turned off in the settings).
Where to start as a newcomer
If you've never played a farming sim before, don't let the pile of machinery scare you. The game holds your hand: there's a tutorial, step-by-step hints for field work, and the option to hire AI helpers who'll plough or harvest for you while you handle something else. Start with a small field, a single tractor and a basic crop like wheat, sell that first harvest — and you'll gradually feel the farm turn from loss-making into profitable. There's no timer and no pressure here: you can learn the mechanics at a relaxed pace, or dive straight into the logistics of a large operation.
Platform and region
This is the Windows PC version. The gift is region-bound: your Steam account must be in the same region as the gift, so check your region before buying. Note as well that the game must not already be in your library — you can't gift one you already own. On Steam Deck and Linux the game runs via Proton: it's stable for many players, though it's officially aimed at Windows.
How the gift arrives
After payment the FZR sender bot adds you as a friend on Steam and sends Farming Simulator 19 as a gift. You don't need to confirm any trades manually — just accept the gift in the client and the game appears in your library, ready to download. There's no need to enable Steam Guard: we never sign into your account. The whole process usually takes a couple of minutes.
Similar games in the series
If the farming vibe clicks, check out the other entries in the franchise — familiar mechanics, but each one packs more content and machinery: Farming Simulator 22, Farming Simulator 25 and the earlier Farming Simulator 17. They're all about calm, meditative farming with a massive fleet, but the nineteenth entry remains a fan favourite for the John Deere debut and its friendly learning curve.
