Popular survival horror (with an emphasis on survival) game Sons of the Forest launched into Early Access back in February, and since then, Vancouver-based developer Endnight Games have been releasing a steady stream updates for players. The latest one, Patch 3, adds night vision goggles, a new hoverboard-like “rideable E.U.C.”, and a variety of new traps for your building. Here’s a rundown of the major new content included in the update.
- Rideable E.U.C. ‘Knight V’
- Nightvision goggles
- Solar panels, light bulbs and wires added to construction system
- Ramps/Stairs can now be built between a beam and a wall
- Buildable spring trap
- Working armor rack (replaces mannequin)
- Added button/option to delete saves (also limited the total amount of save slots to 30 to fix issues with steam cloud sync)
Patch 3 comes hot on the heels of Patch 2, which launched in late March. That update added a new cave system, boss, additional lore, and more. Get the details, below.
- Added new demon boss to end of hell caves
- Added dead cultists to map
- New double story cannibal hut type added
- Added turtle shell rain collector
- Added new tougher puffy variation
- New surveillance room added to bunker residential
- New cave system added
- Added admin panel for admin clients
- Additional story elements added
- Added auto backup system when overwriting saves
Of course, both updates also include a variety of small bug fixes and tweaks, including gems like “dead babies now have buoyancy in water” (this is a horrifically silly game sometimes). You can check out the full, unabridged patch notes for Patch 2 here and Patch 3 here.
Sons of the Forest can be played on PC now via Steam Early Access. Endnight have not opened up much about a possible console release, but The Forest did come to PS4. If there is a console release, it likely won’t happen until the game exits Early Access.
