- Thrustmaster’s Simtask Farmstick is a dedicated PlayStation model
- It is on sale on June 4, but you can pre -order today
- Just keep in mind that you will need a Thrustmaster steering wheel to get the most out of it
The sung wurzels “I have a whole new combine harvester and I will give you the key” What a peripheral manufacturer Thrustmaster must have been inspired by … for the second time because he has just revealed the Playstation of Simtask Farmstick – A joystick designed to be used with with Agricultural simulator 25.
We have already taken the Thrustmaster Simtask Farmstick X, this is the one designed for use with Xbox Series and Sarries S, for a turn and we were impressed by its wide range of entries, precise control and mappable buttons when you use it with a PC. But a few things like limited compatibility and its very niche use cases have enabled the loss of a star and a half in our review.
Obviously, there must be budding farmers on PlayStation, because Thrustmaster has now released a version of the Simtask farm for the PS5 and the PS5 Pro.
To watch
Now, I freely admit that I am not a big fan of simulator, but I appreciate the peripherals which are entirely dedicated to helping (a little) to reproduce the orders of real world vehicles. And the Simtask farm looks hardened with good pimples to operate heavy agricultural machines.
As a person who comes from an agricultural environment, I went to a few modern tractors, and these days, they tend to display controls that seem closer to the game joysticks than the wheels and the heads of traditional vehicles.
The Simstask Farmstick PlayStation is very similar to the Xbox version, with 18 buttons on its base, six buttons on the stick, two rocker switches, a thumb wheel and a mini-harsh on the main joystick. Naturally, the Xbox button has been replaced by a Black PlayStation.
There is a catch here: to get the most out of the Simtask Farmstick Playstation that you need to use it with the steering wheel device. But I think that if you are already looking at dedicated peripherals for the crop of the simulator 25, you should go to full speed on it and get the Simtask steering kit.
Pre -orders from the Simtask Farmstick Playstation are now live for $ 179.99 / £ 99.99 before its launch of June 4.
