There are many marketing approaches a company can take for their upcoming games – many of which are unfortunately shared by many others on the market. Going a bit old school, GIANTS Software, the publisher and developer behind the Farming Simulator series, has announced the launch of the official Farming Simulator Magazine. The publication, which is available at local kiosks in selected regions and in digital format on the Farming Simulator website for $3.49 USD or local equivalent, offers 52 pages of family-friendly, entertaining content for fans of the game.
The magazine sets out to provide the latest information on upcoming releases, such as Farming Simulator 23, as well as tips and tricks from game experts. Additionally, readers can access curated collections of the best user-generated and developer-tested mods for Farming Simulator 22. Personal interviews with influencers and GIANTS Software employees, tech reviews of game peripherals, and event reports from international appearances and the Farming Simulator League are also included in each issue.
Each edition of the Farming Simulator Magazine comes with a special goodie for readers, with the first issue featuring a download code for the classic Porsche Diesel Junior 108 tractor in Farming Simulator 22. The magazine is available in six languages across twelve countries – including those of us down under in Australia.
Christian Ammann, CEO of GIANTS Software, commented on the launch, stating that the company is building on the extraordinary retail presence and positive sales response of the Farming Simulator brand.
One of the biggest strengths of the Farming Simulator brand is its extraordinary retail presence and positive sales response. We continue to build on this. Not only are we increasing brand visibility with a high-quality magazine for young target groups – we’re also offering our fans a great opportunity to share their passion for Farming Simulator with us in a completely new way.
Boris Stefan, Head of Publishing, also expressed excitement about the expansion of publishing activities, promising an ever-expanding universe for both existing and prospective fans.
We’re thrilled to expand our publishing activities. With all the other new products in our pipeline, we offer our existing and prospective fans an ever-expanding universe.
The Farming Simulator Magazine Volume 1 is now available to purchase, with a second issue planned for release later this year.
