That's almost twice the asking price of The Forest a number of years ago, but at least you get an eight-player experience out of it.
Will the Sons of the Forest price go up?
Thankfully, the developers have already confirmed that Sons of the Forest won't go up in price once it leaves early access toward the end of the year.
Can you preload Sons of the Forest?
It's looking unlikely that a Sons of the Forest preload period will go up before the game launches. That means you might have to factor in your download speeds when it comes to playing Sons of the Forest at launch.
When is the Sons of the Forest release date?
Sons of the Forest will finally launch on February 23, mere weeks from now. Unlike many survival games on Steam, it is not launching on early access. From the start, you can play the entire game from start to finish.
Although this will be the full game, the story is not linear. You aren't following NPCs and listening to orders. You simply have to get into the world and figure everything out for yourself. You may need some help.
