Sons of the Forest Gameplay

Sons of the Forest is an upcoming survival horror video game developed by Endnight Games, and it follows a similar premise to its predecessor, The Forest. In this game, players take control of a protagonist who is stranded on an island inhabited by cannibals. The game introduces new gameplay elements, such as friendly NPCs and a much larger map.

One of the friendly NPCs players will encounter is a character named Kelvin, who is deaf and unable to speak. Players can give Kelvin written commands on a piece of paper to help with simple tasks such as collecting crafting resources or setting up fires. This introduces a new level of strategy and cooperation for players, as they must communicate effectively with Kelvin to ensure their survival.

Another friendly NPC players will encounter is Virginia, a three-legged, three-armed woman who can be equipped with weapons to aid in combat situations. This adds a unique element to combat in the game, as players must strategize and coordinate with Virginia to take down cannibal enemies.

The map in Sons of the Forest is four times bigger than that of its predecessor, providing players with even more areas to explore and scavenge for resources. This larger map also introduces new environmental hazards and obstacles, increasing the difficulty level of the game.

Sons of the Forest also supports up to eight-player cooperative multiplayer, allowing players to work together to survive the island and fend off the cannibal threat. However, players can also choose to play the game solo if they prefer.
