Sons Of The Forest Leaves Early Access Later This Month
The game spent one year in Early Access.
Sons of the Forest will leave early access on Steam and launch on February 22, and developer Endnight Games released a new trailer showing off what to expect in the game's 1.0 version.
The trailer shows footage of players being able to rescue others by calling an SOS, paraglide, and fight off infected monsters. In Sons of the Forest, you're sent off to a remote island with the task to find a missing billionaire. However, upon arriving, you find that it's filled with cannibals. As with many survival games, you must craft and build in order to come out alive.
Sons of the Forest was released into early access on February 23, 2023 on PC and is a sequel to 2014's The Forest. So far, the game hasn't been announced for other platforms. However, its predecessor eventually came to PS4 in 2018, which opens up the possibility Sons of the Forest might be released outside of PC.
Endnight Games announced the release date of the full version back in November 2023. Actor Shawn Ashmore voices Timmy, a character introduced in The Forest's final cutscene, who has been given a bigger role in Sons of the Forest.
