Michelin coming to Farming Simulator 22

Tyre aficionados are in for a treat when Farming Simulator 22 arrives in just over a week’s time. Not only are Continental and BKT present in the simulator, Michelin has also become an official partner. It says this partnership “allows all players to take advantage of the environmental and productivity performance benefits” of the Michelin agricultural tyre range.

“As a technology leader in the agricultural tyre market, Michelin has a complete range of products to support farmers all year round, regardless of the vehicle type or application, and this extensive offer will now be available in the digital world,” states Michelin.

In addition to offering players access to Michelin’s wide range of agricultural tyres, this new launch of Farming Simulator 22 offers many new features and technical improvements. Developed and published by Giants Software, Farming Simulator was introduced in 2008 and more than 25 million copies have been sold worldwide since – this is the eighth evolution of the popular farming simulation game.

Speaking about the partnership, Bastien Nourisson, agriculture communication manager at Michelin, says: “Since 1935, Michelin has been helping farmers to equip their vehicles with tyres that have constantly evolved in terms of sizing and technology. Michelin has always been committed to advising farmers on the optimum choice of tyres for their vehicles and activities to ensure the best possible performance.

“As a natural evolution, we are pleased to continue in this direction by offering millions of Farming Simulator players our complete range of tyre solutions. From tractors and sprayers to the harvesting equipment and back to the trailer, all our ranges, sizes and technologies available in real life, will now be available in the virtual world.”

Farming Simulator 22 will release on 22 November for PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Stadia.
