You’ll have to make the best use of the crafting mechanics to survive the monsters in this open-world simulator.

Will Sons of the Forest have a single-player mode?

Yes, you can play Sons of the Forest both in single-player and coop mode. However, be aware that the campaign is the same, independent of your choice. As it has been in early access for a while now, fans say that playing it alone is even scarier than with friends.

You can beat the main story in about 12 hours, 19 if you count the extra content too. With the 1.0 release bringing new elements to the project, the time can increase.

Even though you can play it alone, fans say Sons of the Forest, like other survival horror games, is much more fun if you have friends with you. It can be played with up to 8 players, and the coop experience can bring new and unique experiences.


Will Sons of the Forest have any DLC?

Unfortunately, not yet. As of now, there haven’t been any announcements about DLC for Sons of the Forest. However, with the 1.0 release, the game will get many items, monsters, systems, and traps for you to use.
