A new gameplay trailer from Sons of The Forest shows its haunting atmosphere and new, eerie types of cannibals.

Sons of The Forest is the sequel to Endnight Games’ The Forest that was originally revealed back in 2019. The new trailer shares some first-time-ever gameplay footage and confirms that it will be launched in 2021.

Similar to the original game, in Sons of The Forest you will find yourself in a remote island after being lucky enough to survive a plane crash. While at first, it just looks like you have to deal with the brutality of the nature in the island, soon you find out that there are some other creatures living in the island that don’t look so friendly.

The same as The Forest, in Sons of The Forest you have to fight against zombie-like Cannibals and build yourself a safe and sturdy home to survive. However, the island has so much secrets that need to be discovered. Similar to the original game, the sequel will allow you to follow various paths in the island and find out the mysteries.

As shown in the trailer, despite being populated by some disgusting cannibals, there are some strong signs of human living in the island as the player discovers some modern houses.

Currently, there is no clue which platforms will be a target for Sons of The Forest, but apparently it will be available on PC as the original game hit Steam earlier than other platforms.

Endnight Games is aiming to launch Sons of The Forest next year, which means we are going to see more of the game in the coming months.

The Forest is still one of the brilliant survival horror games that has received mostly positive reviews from players on Steam and reviewers on various outlets. You can grab the game with a 50% discount during Steam’s Winter Sale for a limited time. It will cost you $9.99. The game also features a co-op mode that brings in even more challenges.
