According to our preview of the game, Sons of the Forest builds upon every aspect of its predecessor, with a goal of realism and developing a flexible ecosystem. The game’s addition of impressively sophisticated and smarter AI enemies and companions sets it apart from other survival games, potentially making it a standout title in the genre.
