Survival sandbox games are usually known for more free-form gameplay, but over the past several years, many titles have presented the same while also offering complex narratives. Subnautica, Darkwood and The Forest are prime examples, and Endnight Games is looking to continue this trend with Sons of the Forest.
Releasing on February 23rd for PC, the sequel features more lush environments, complex mechanics and a bustling sandbox while presenting a compelling mystery with plenty of body horror. Here's what you need to know before you buy.
