Technically speaking, Farming Simulator runs just fine on the Switch. If you’ve played a Farming Simulator game before, you’ll be able to pick this up almost instantly. Controls are laid out almost identically to other platforms, with players using the left and right bumpers to access different features of each vehicle. Players plow fields, plant seeds, grow crops, harvest and sell the fruits of their labor, buy farm animals, upgrade vehicles and everything else you’d expect.
