Goats are new animals introduced in Farming Simulator 25.

Summary

"We looked at the animal wish list and thought, "okay, we goat this, GIANTS Software!". So here are the goats: Fluffy coat, tiny horns, rectangular pupils - the whole package. They provide enjoyment and milk! Dairy productions allow you to create delicisous, profitable goat cheese. Tastes great with honey, by the way... mhh..."

The Road to Goat

You want to get goats right and the most complex thing are their legs and rectangular pupils. First, we almost created a Dahu by accident - a mythical creature. You can learn more about it from Katie. Right, you don't know who she is, do you? You'll find out soon enough.

One wrong slider and shorter legs on one side and you have a fantastical beast! Once the legs were up to snuff and we banished the Dahu back to its folkloric existence (or did we?), we had a squad of 2D & 3D artists working non-stop on the pupils. All so these beautiful animals could do what they do best - stare.

Why Goats are awesome

  • Goats are incredible climbers. They're known for their agility, even scaling steep cliffs and trees. If you think you're good at bouldering, look at goats!
  • Rectangular pupils give them nearly 360-degree panoramic vision, helping them spot predators and navigate challenging terrain.
  • They're curious and intelligent. They can learn how to open gates or manipulate objects. Good to have an eye on them.
  • Goats are highly social and form close bonds within their herds, or even humans and other animals.
  • Each goat has a unique voice. Just look at all those screaming goat videos. So not only mother goats could recognize individual goats go by their bleat.

New production & products

Goat milk is not everyone's cup of milk, but those who like it, love it. Its distinct, slightly tangy flavor is not as sweet and mild as your regular milk from a cow, but that's why it's so unique in taste and profitable in production!

While keeping goats for the sake of it is awesome enough, new productions allow you to process their milk and go for fine goat cheese! It's worth it, you goat to believe it!

Want to try goat cheese for real? Try it with fruits, nuts, honey, and herbs like thyme, rosemary and basil. You can put it in almost every dish just like regular cheese. From salad and stuffed in peppers to pasta and pizza.
