In October 2024, Aerosoft will not only release Heavy Cargo - The Truck Simulator, but also launch Global Farmer in Early Access and finally introduce the Aerosoft Truck & Bus Wheel System.

October is a very busy month for Aerosoft. Not only will the simulation experts release Heavy Cargo - The Truck Simulator on PC and consoles on 9 October, but they will also launch Global Farmer in Early Access on 7 October. In this game, developed by Thera Bytes from Munich, players can place their farm and fields anywhere in the world thanks to the use of OpenStreetMap. Pedepe's City Bus Manager already used OpenStreetMap in a similar way. In Global Farmer, players can even use mountains and deserts as locations for their farms, which influence parameters for agricultural values such as soil conditions, seasonal fluctuations and level of difficulty. Infrastructure needs to be maintained as well. Silos and warehouses must be built to store the harvest before it can be sold on the market. The fleet of tractors and machinery also needs suitable parking and maintenance facilities.


The Aerosoft Truck & Bus Wheel System for PC, announced last year, will be available from the Aerosoft Shop from 31 October at a price of 399.99 Euros. The package includes the steering wheel, which has been specially designed for truck and bus simulators, as well as a separate gear shift unit and a triple pedal set. The steering wheel has a diameter of 40cm and a steering angle of 1080°, while the force feedback is designed to give players a feel for the handling of their vehicle. The shifter features a total of 14 programmable action buttons with LED indicators, a switch for H-Shift and Sequential Shift mode, as well as an additional activation switch for first and second gear. The pedal set includes a large accelerator pedal, clutch pedal and brake pedal. A mobile phone or tablet holder completes the package.
