Farming Simulator 25: Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack – Actros, Arocs & Unimog

On 9 September 2025, one of the most anticipated expansions for Farming Simulator 25 arrived: the Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack. After the technical focus of the MacDon Pack and the return of classic agricultural brands, this time the spotlight was on transport – an aspect that, in modern farming, is every bit as important as tractors and combines.

The DLC delivered not only new vehicles, but also a new dimension of realism. With officially licensed Mercedes-Benz models, the game gained a line-up that almost erased the boundaries between agriculture, logistics, and road transport. Giants Software used the opportunity to further deepen both the physical and economic simulation – from handling and trailer systems to integration with production chains.

With the Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack, it became clear that Farming Simulator 25 is no longer just about work in the field, but about the entire farming ecosystem: production, transport, trade, and infrastructure.

Mercedes-Benz Trucks in Farming Simulator 25: Official licence pack

Mercedes-Benz Trucks had appeared in earlier versions of the game via mods or temporary partnerships, but this official pack marked the brand’s first full-fledged appearance in a mainline title.

Mercedes-Benz stands for reliability, engineering, and performance – three qualities that fit the tone of the game perfectly. Giants Software worked closely with the manufacturer to represent not only the design but also the driving behaviour and technology of the vehicles as realistically as possible.

At the heart of the pack are three models: the Mercedes-Benz Actros, the versatile Arocs, and the compact Unimog U530, which serves as a bridge between a conventional tractor and a road vehicle. Together, they form a system that revolutionises the game’s entire transport sector.

Mercedes-Benz Actros in FS25: King of the road

The Mercedes-Benz Actros is the flagship of the pack. With its distinctive design and immense power, it brings professional freight transport to farm tracks.

In Farming Simulator 25, it’s more than just a truck. Thanks to the new driving physics, the Actros behaves realistically on tarmac, gravel, and tilled soil. Suspension response, load sensitivity, and trailer inertia are simulated so precisely that you can feel the vehicle’s strength in every movement.

With over 600 hp, the Actros is ideal for heavy haulage. Whether it’s crops, building materials, or large machinery, this truck enables logistics tasks to be completed more efficiently than ever. In combination with the new semi-trailers included in the DLC, it opens up possibilities that go far beyond the game’s previous scope.

The Actros also features a fully animated cab with digital display, lighting controls, and gear-shift sequences. Giants Software used original Mercedes-Benz data to ensure every movement feels authentic.

Mercedes-Benz Arocs in FS25: Off-road power for timber, construction, and field work

While the Actros is built for the road, the Arocs is the workhorse of the range. Designed specifically for off-road use and transport on unpaved routes, it truly shines in these conditions.

In Farming Simulator 25, the Arocs is a flexible tool. Its all-wheel-drive configuration, high ground clearance, and robust suspension make it perfect for construction sites, timber haulage, or rough terrain.

The DLC introduces new bodies, including tipper bodies, timber beds, and combined trailer systems. This allows the Arocs to transport not just grain or sand, but also logs, equipment, and even vehicles.

Particularly impressive is the new tyre system, which responds realistically to weight, surface, and pressure. Depending on the load, rolling resistance and traction change. Players clearly feel how important it is to choose the right truck for the job.

The Arocs embodies the connection between agriculture and industry – a line that is increasingly blurred in modern farming.

Unimog U530 in FS25: The versatile all-rounder

No Mercedes-Benz DLC would be complete without the Unimog U530. Compact and versatile, the U530 is one of the world’s best-known utility vehicles – and in Farming Simulator 25 it’s a true multi-purpose machine.

The Unimog can traverse ploughed tracks, tow trailers, run spreaders or a front loader, and still be used on public roads. Its modular design makes it the link between field and town.

Giants Software has equipped it with numerous customisation options: tyre treads, hydraulic systems, additional weights, front-mounted tools, and a wide range of paint finishes. This allows the Unimog to be tailored to almost any task – whether as a transport vehicle, maintenance unit, or logistics helper.

Its handling is precise and agile. Unlike heavy trucks, the Unimog responds directly to steering inputs and is well suited to smaller farms or narrow forest tracks. It’s the heart of the pack – a vehicle you can deploy anywhere, and a living piece of agricultural history.

New semi-trailers and a modular coupling system for trucks

The Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack doesn’t just add vehicles; it also introduces a new system of trailers and semi-trailers. These are fully compatible with all three vehicle types and cover a range of use cases.

For the Actros, there are semi-trailers with variable loading ramps and sidewalls to simplify transporting machinery and goods. The Arocs makes use of rugged tipper bodies and timber trailers, while the Unimog can tow smaller trailers and service units.

New is the modular coupling system. It allows different bodies to be combined with a common chassis. The same trailer frame can serve as a tanker, tipper, or flatbed. This greatly expands flexibility and brings Farming Simulator 25 closer to the complexity of real-world logistics.

Realistic truck driving physics in Farming Simulator 25

One of the DLC’s greatest strengths is the improved driving feel. Giants Software has significantly overhauled truck physics. Speed, mass, and cornering now feel more authentic. The difference is especially noticeable under full load: vehicles take longer to brake, they oscillate, and on wet roads or gravel they lose some traction.

Traffic has been adjusted as well. AI vehicles respond to the size and speed of your trucks and give way accordingly. On narrow country roads this creates moments that feel surprisingly real – for example, when you’re hauling a full trailer uphill and a car appears around the bend. Transport is no longer just a means to an end, but a gameplay pillar in its own right with a genuine learning curve.

Transport economy: costs, efficiency, and capacities

The new Mercedes-Benz vehicles also expand the economic side of the game. On larger maps or in production chains with multiple stages, transport is now a decisive factor.

The trucks are expensive to purchase but offer immense capacity. If you want to move grain, milk, timber, or industrial goods efficiently, they will save time and resources in the long run.

The economy has also been tweaked: fuel costs, maintenance, and wear play a greater role for trucks, prompting strategic choices. Players must decide when it’s worth deploying an Arocs in the field or using the Actros for long‑haul transport. These decisions add depth to the game’s economy.

Graphics and sound: authentic Mercedes quality in the cab

The Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack impressively demonstrates how realistic vehicles can look in Farming Simulator 25. Paint finishes reflect light authentically, metal surfaces show signs of use, and in the rain water beads across the bodywork.

Cab interiors are faithfully recreated. Displays, instruments, and even seat textures match the real models. On start-up you hear the rich engine note; during gear changes, the mechanical click of the shifter. Giants Software worked with real audio recordings of the vehicles to reproduce their sound accurately.

This audio fidelity significantly boosts immersion. Especially in the cab view, you feel as if you’re sitting in a real truck.

Multiplayer logistics: servers, convoys, and coordination

The DLC is at its best in multiplayer. On dedicated servers, players can build transport chains that span entire maps. While one group harvests in the field, others handle logistics – a clear division of labour that makes gameplay more realistic and dynamic.

The new trucks elevate coordination and efficiency to a new level. Particularly in large projects like timber operations or production chains, logistics becomes central to the experience. Many server communities now use the pack to simulate complete delivery networks – including hauliers, fuel stations, and maintenance services.

Verdict: Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack in Farming Simulator 25

The Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack is one of the most technically impressive expansions for Farming Simulator 25. It doesn’t just bring a legendary brand into the game – it changes how you think about transport and logistics in agriculture.

With the three new vehicles – Actros, Arocs, and Unimog – and the modular trailer system, the DLC provides tools for farms of all sizes and playstyles. Whether on tarmac, farm tracks, or forest trails, these machines combine strength with elegance and turn every drive into an experience.

On a dedicated Farming Simulator server from 4Netplayers, the Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack reaches its full potential. Here, players can build complex transport networks, plan convoys, and tackle the logistical challenges of modern agriculture together. With stable performance, flexible management, and realistic technology, every haul becomes a precise, satisfying task – and every kilometre a testament to the fascination that only real machine power can deliver.
