Finally, the survival game The Forest is coming to PS4. After an initial announcement in 2014, fans had already lost hope.
Players on PlayStation 4 can look forward to a new survival game in 2018. In The Forest, you are the survivor of a plane crash and must survive in the large, mysterious forest.
Your task is to find your son.
As night falls, it gets dangerous. Mutated forest dwellers lurk and want to kill you. You defend yourself with weapons like spears or axes that you craft yourself.
The Forest PS4 Release, Fans are Excited
The Forest will be released on November 6, 2018, for PlayStation 4.
Fans had to wait a long time for a release announcement after the first trailer. The trailer was released back in November 2014 – 4 years before the actual release.
On social media, players write that they had already given up hope. Overall, though, joy prevails that The Forest is finally coming to PS4.
What is The Forest About?
In search of your son, you comb through a huge forest. During the day, everything seems fine, but occasionally you catch a glimpse of something moving behind a tree out of the corner of your eye.
Seemingly alone, you gather water and food to meet your needs. But you are being watched.
The forest and its dangers: At night, the tense atmosphere of The Forest turns into unease. The creepy mutants that have settled in the forest come out at night. They are looking for humans to kill.
Oppressive atmosphere in the forest: The soundscape in the dark forest, with rustling leaves and breaking branches, creates a feeling of unease. Just because you are paranoid doesn’t mean there is no one out there.
When you then hear the screams of the mutants, pure panic breaks out. Hopefully, you secured your camp well enough during the day that the nasty, bloody enemies cannot find their way to your sleeping place.
If you do encounter them up close, it’s better to have strong weapons with you.
You must build: The crafting in The Forest gives you a lot of freedom for creativity. You can build boats or houses from wood that you cut down in the forest during the day. You can get clean water by repurposing an empty turtle shell as a container.
With wooden barricades and deadly traps, you secure your camp against unwanted visitors. In the launch trailer of The Forest, you can see what dangers you need to be prepared for.
Multiplayer: You can play The Forest’s multiplayer with up to 3 other friends.
