Bees, Bees, Bees!

October 25, 2021

This bee-witching feature might create a big buzz, but please bee-have yourself, and let's talk about bees in Farming Simulator 22!

Wanna-bee a beekeeper, honey?

You may have spotted the bee-autiful beekeeper outfit when we presented the new character creation a few weeks ago. After choosing a fashionable buzz-cut hairstyle for your farmer, you can also wear a fitting protective suit if you want to live a productive life of acquiring the sweet, golden and viscous substance made by busy bees. As you know, beekeepers need to bee careful - the wardrobe allows you to change into any outfit, anytime.

Bee-hold: Various new beehives for your farm

Small hives, big hives - even medium hives in between. There are numerous bee hives to choose from, allowing you to provide your farm with an individual flair. Thanks to our brand-new build mode, you expand and decorate your farm with a lot of new objects - perfect if you want to throw a cross-multiplayer house-swarming party and impress your friends.

You need to place a pallet location on your farm, so the honey will be generated in form of pallets. After boxes full of honey are placed before your feet, there's now a sticky situation you have to attend to. So, bee prepared, and...

Let's get into bees-ness!

And what's sweeter than the honey they produce? The money they generate. You can either sell them directly or process the honey together with grains and raisins at the cereal factory. That'll bee even more profitable.

Also, if you place beehives in proximity to canola, potatoes, and sunflowers, the yield of your crops will rise thanks to some pollinating going on. Un-bee-lievable, right?

To hum it up...

Bees are becoming a bigger part of your farm, generating more money by producing honey and increasing the yield of certain crops. If that's none of your bees-wax, and you'd like to tend to other animals, that's fine. And, if you think that the amount of lazy bee puns really stings, you might complain at community@giants-software.com - or let it bee.
