Sons of the Forest is Endnight Games' survival horror sequel to The Forest — a game that spent over a year in Early Access gathering improvements and launched to a rapturous reception. Crash-landing on a mysterious island to search for a missing billionaire, you must survive against increasingly disturbing mutant cannibals while unraveling the island's dark secrets. The building system is the most intuitive and creative in the survival genre — cutting trees, shaping logs, and constructing shelters and forts feels genuinely satisfying and produces impressive results. Kelvin, your injured AI companion, assists with tasks through a notepad communication system that players found both endearing and occasionally comedy gold. Virginia — a three-armed, three-legged survivor — can be befriended and becomes a remarkably capable ally. The horror escalates beautifully as the story reveals its science fiction roots. An essential survival experience.
