Collect firewood, sharpen your ax and get ready to smash some mutants. Sons of the Forest’s release time is fast approaching, and developer Endnight plans to release its new horror game on Steam Early Access so players can try it out, try it out, and help iterate before a full exit. With new weapons, companions, and more detailed crafting than its 2014 predecessor, we’re all eagerly awaiting the release date of Sons of the Forest. So gather your friends for multiplayer, head to the Valve store, and get ready: that’s when Sons of the Forest launches on PC and Steam.
Sons of the Forest will launch on Steam and PC on February 23 at 10:00 AM PST/1:00 PM EST/6:00 PM GMT/7:00 PM CET.
Already the most searched game on Steam, surpassing even Bethesda’s Starfield, you should find plenty of people to play with once Sons of the Forest arrives. Make sure you know the Sons of the Forest map beforehand. We don’t want you to get lost.
Please note that Sons of the Forest will be released as an early access game, which means some areas and elements may be unfinished. If it’s a little tricky or a little buggy, don’t worry: Endnight has plans.
“There’s still a lot more we want to add,” says the developer. “Items, new mechanics, game balance and more. We didn’t want to be delayed again, so we decided to involve the community in the continued development of this project and stick to our February 23rd release date, but to release it in early access.”
Speaking of items and gameplay, get ready to survive with all the weapons in Sons of the Forest. We’ve also tracked every mutant in Sons of the Forest, so you can figure out precisely what you’re up against before you crash.
