Sons of the Forest update continues to improve on Kelvin
Although it was an instant hit the moment it came out (selling 2 million copies in 24 hour) hype for Sons of the Forest has definitely dropped off recently. Developer Endnight Games is still improving on it, and the latest patch adds some new things while also giving more love to helper NPC Kelvin.
The notes on the game’s Steam page show exactly what’s been implemented in Patch 12. For starters, there’s now a pickaxe, a brand-new cave, more emote actions for Virginia, and more.
There have also been a few tweaks to Kelvin, the mute companion who became the star of Sons of the Forest. Now, he will react to animal heads, has also been given some extra emotes, and has had some fixes.
Endnight has also added a new introduction video “for guests at Holosprings.” This can be viewed at the entertainment bunker, specifically in the screening room.
While still in early access, there was a lot of praise for the follow-up to 2018’s The Forest. The game currently has a Steam review score of “Very Positive.” There’s been no word yet on when it will release fully, but hopefully it won’t be long before it leaves early access.
