Farming Simulator 19 is now free to download and keep forever

According to Wikipedia, the agricultural simulator from Astragon Entertainment is the most successful computer game from Switzerland and is one of the most popular titles in countries like Germany. While Farming Simulator 19 only averaged 73 out of 100 possible points on Metacritic, a "mixed or average" score by the website's standards, you can now take a look at the game without having to spend US$30 or so.

Because from now until February 6, Epic Games is giving away the game in its store. All you need to download and keep the game is an Epic Games account, which you can create with an email, Facebook, Google, PlayStation, Xbox or Nintendo Switch account, along with the Epic Games Launcher. The offer only applies to the standard edition of the game and is free until 16:00 GMT. Astragon describes Farming Simulator 19, which only came out in November 2018, as follows:
