Hello, I have some exciting news to share today! The Developer of Farming Simulator, GIANTS Software have partnered with Strictly Limited games to collaborate on a special release. Following the success of the Farming Simulator 25 special collector’s edition, which hit PC shelves back in 2024, the positive response to one of the included bonuses lead to todays announcement.
Inside the Box for the Farming Simulator 25 Collector’s Edition, GIANTS Software included a special retro version of the game. The overwhelmingly positive feedback on this release has caused GIANTS Software to partner with Strictly Limited games. This Partnership has blossomed with the announcement for Farming Simulator 16-Bit Edition. Which will be available as both a Standard Limited Edition and a special Deluxe Edition.
This unique release will be compatible with both Mega Drive and Genesis Systems, alongside dedicated systems that run cartridge games, like the Mega Sg and others. Rebuilt from the ground up, this game will feature full high definition 16-Bit graphics, digital recreations of real world equipment and spirtes that push all 512 colors of the system to the limit.
But this isn’t all, not only will you grow the crops, you can havest them to sell, invest in new equipment and explore a vast world of agricultural action. All while listening to a soundtrack composed by the legendary Chris Huelsbeck. This new experience will push the limits of 16-Bit tech, allowing players to experience the joys of farming like never before.
This Limited edition will be produced with a special green cartridge, produced in a quantity of 500 copies worldwide, whereas the Deluxe edition, will contain special bonus items and a presentation box, also limited to 500 copies. In addition to this special release, a standard retail version will be made available, through selected retailers. This will consist of a black cartridge to distinguish it from the Strictly Limited variations.
Statement from Strictly Limited Games: “A rare opportunity awaits retro gaming enthusiasts and fans of the Farming Simulator series to experience the franchise in a fresh format, reimagined with the authentic feel of classic 16-bit gameplay. Both editions are fully compatible with Mega Drive/Genesis-like retro hardware and reflect Strictly Limited’s ongoing commitment to preserving and celebrating gaming culture through high-quality physical releases.”
