Lawn Mowing Simulator 2

Lawn Mowing Simulator 2 is the sequel to Lawn Mowing Simulator and is set in the USA. Players build a career in professional lawn care, taking on jobs that range from suburban gardens to commercial and municipal sites. The game includes 11 locations, which is more than the original offered at launch, and most locations contain several contracts of differing size and theme.

Core gameplay centres on mowing, string trimming and, new to the series, leaf blowing. Leaf blowers are used to clear leaves and grass clippings, and the game can handle tens of thousands of leaves at once. Leaves are blown onto a tarpaulin until it is full, then emptied into a debris bag. A rake is also provided for hard-to-reach areas. Other new tasks include weed clearance. Equipment is modelled on real-world products from Kubota, SCAG and STIGA, alongside the developer’s in-house brands Patterson and Knight. Further equipment is planned after release.

Career mode has been reworked, with a fully explorable 3D headquarters from which the player runs the business, and expanded character customisation. Gardens can change between visits, for example gaining flower beds, an above-ground pool or a flagpole, so repeat jobs at the same location are not identical. The game also uses a newly built grass system that shows a clear difference between cut and uncut grass, includes flowers and weeds as part of the lawn, and features greater variation in uncut grass height.
