В Sounds of the forest there is a list of innovations added in update 1.0 and the list is truly impressive!

Sons of the Forest is finally complete, and the game's long-awaited 1.0 update brings a ton of new features to the game for new and returning players alike.

Сегодняшнее обновление Sons of the Forest 1.0 было долгожданным, и это не преувеличение. Описание обновления чрезвычайно обширно – почти так же длинно, как и у отрубленных рук, которыми можно махать, – но ключевыми моментами, о которых стоит знать, являются добавление новой сюжетной линии и множество изменений, которые улучшат игровой процесс, делая его еще более захватывающим по сравнению с версией в раннем доступе.

The new storyline in Sons of the Forest includes a number of new cutscenes and voice acting. There are also plenty of new locations, giving the game more variety and options to explore after spending many hours in the Early Access version. Update 1.0 brings new mutants and other wild creatures to Sons of the Forest, as well as more gear storage options and additional structures to build on. It's essentially the same game you remember, but with a whole host of new features to explore.

Sons of the Forest has been available in Early Access since February 2023, and now, a year later, it is ready for a full release. The game has sold millions of copies during its time in Early Access, and we expect this player base to continue to grow.
