Sons of the Forest - Lore and Storyline
The end of The Forest left players with two alternative endings. One of the main characters loses a loved one and stays silent about the forest’s location, but the second ending shows that he saves his son’s life and writes a book about the adventures.
The second ending reveals a much older son investigating “site 2” which would give a strong starting point for Son’s of the Forest to take place.
