However, that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Sons of the Forest now has over 30k+ reviews on Steam, most of which are highly positive. It speaks volumes about what the game offers; therefore, it has become a sensation right after launch.
The majority of these reviews praise Endnight Games’ work and improvement from the previous title, The Forest. This game seems to have improved many of the earlier mechanics and offers players a lot of content that keeps them engaged.
The effects of that are clearly visible if we look at the concurrent player count on SteamDB, which stands at over 400k+ players. This was only a few hours ago and might even be replaced by a more significant number by the time you read this.
The price is also a big factor among the many things that make this a great title. It is relatively cheap, and the price can vary depending on your region, but the content it provides is definitely worth the price tag. One user even writes, “great game still needs some work, but all in all worth getting.”
Perhaps an even more significant achievement is the game becoming a Top Seller on Steam. Although different titles have taken the crown over the past few weeks, they have all been amazing, and Sons of the Forest has proven that it deserves a place among the best releases of 2023 so far.
It will be fun to see how long the game holds that place and how big the game will become once it fully releases. While we don’t know when it will come to consoles, we expect it to be inevitable as many gamers have shared their enthusiasm to experience the game on other platforms.
If you are unfamiliar with this stellar horror release, Sons of the Forest is set on a cannibal-infested island. Players must find a lost billionaire and survive amidst the haunting environment and creatures in its enormous open world. It is a multiplayer survival game, which means you can enjoy it with your friends and try to survive to the best of your abilities.
The game is still in Early Access, and a 6-8 month window is expected before it is fully released. As such, we can expect more and more content in the future and witness the game improving at a faster pace. But for now, surviving on this haunting island should be your biggest concern.
That is all for today! How has your experience with the game been so far? If you haven’t purchased it already, are you willing to get it now, especially with all the hype? Share your thoughts with us now, and we will get back to you!
