Is Farming Simulator 25 Cross Platform? Crossplay Guide 2026

Marcus WebbMarcus Webb|

Yes, Farming Simulator 25 is cross-platform. Giants Software has fully integrated crossplay, allowing players on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S to farm together on the same servers.

Cross-Platform Support in Farming Simulator 25

Farming Simulator 25 lets you play across major platforms. Whether you’re on a gaming PC, a PlayStation 5, or an Xbox Series X|S, you can join multiplayer sessions with players from other platforms. This setup is simple—no need for workarounds or third-party tools.

However, there’s a limitation you should know about: cross-platform servers allow a maximum of 6 players. If you’re on PC and want to host a larger session with up to 16 players, you can only do that on PC-exclusive servers. So, while crossplay is available, the player cap gets reduced when mixing platforms.

Note on macOS: Farming Simulator 25 is available on macOS, but current information doesn’t confirm it as part of the cross-platform multiplayer pool. Crossplay is currently confirmed only between PC (Windows), PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.

How to Play Cross-Platform in Farming Simulator 25

To set up a cross-platform session in Farming Simulator 25, use the game’s standard multiplayer menu. Here’s how:

  1. Launch multiplayer from the main menu.
  2. Create or join a server with cross-platform enabled.
  3. Invite friends using the in-game invite system or share your session details.
  4. Remember, the 6-player cap applies to cross-platform sessions.

If you’re hosting a PC-only server and want the full 16-player experience, ensure all participants are on PC. Once you enable cross-platform play, the cap reduces to 6 players.

Crossplay Limitations to Know

  • Cross-platform servers: Maximum 6 players.
  • PC-only servers: Maximum 16 players.
  • macOS crossplay: Not officially confirmed.

For most casual farming sessions, 6 players is usually sufficient. But if you’re part of a larger farming community or a content creator hosting big multiplayer events, stick to PC-only lobbies to enjoy that 16-player limit.

Does Farming Simulator 25 support cross-save?

Currently, verified information doesn’t confirm cross-save support between platforms. While cross-platform play (multiplayer) is confirmed, transferring save files between platforms like PlayStation 5 and PC hasn’t been publicly confirmed by Giants Software as of 2026.

Can PS5 and Xbox players play together in Farming Simulator 25?

Absolutely. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S players can farm together in Farming Simulator 25, along with PC players. All three platforms fall under the confirmed cross-platform multiplayer umbrella, though they must adhere to the 6-player server cap.

Is crossplay automatic or does it need to be enabled?

Cross-platform play in Farming Simulator 25 comes through the multiplayer server setup. When you create or join a cross-platform server, the game connects players across PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. There’s no separate setting you need to toggle on at the system level—it all happens through the in-game multiplayer options.
