The new offer of the week is now available in the PS Store. You can get The Forest, one of the best and most popular survival games, at a significantly lower price. We at MeinMMO will tell you why buying it is worth it.
What kind of game is this? The Forest is a horror survival game developed by Endnight Games and was released in May 2014 as Early Access on Steam. It is played from a first-person perspective.
As the survivor of a plane crash, the player must navigate a forested island and find your son. To do this, you need to build a shelter and craft weapons and tools. Additionally, cannibalistic natives and mutants will make your life difficult.
In this way, The Forest offers a successful mix of horror elements, survival aspects, and mystery. Building, exploring, surviving – all of this is the focus of this game.
How about this offer? The Forest is available in the PS Store for €6.79 instead of €16.99. So you save 60%.
The offer of the week is already active and runs until May 6, 2021.

The Forest impresses with AI and crafting system
What makes the game special? The Forest is among the best survival games you can play in 2021. This is mainly due to the following features:
- The lively game world, with dense vegetation, underground caves, and lakes, as well as a day-night cycle
- The convincing AI: The enemies are not suicidal. They have tactics, are not mindlessly aggressive, retreat, and surprise the player at moments when they feel safe
- The creepy and deformed enemies that could come from a horror movie
- The crafting system: Every tree and plant can be chopped down and used. Create tools and weapons
- The survival elements: Keep warm and get food so you don’t die. Set traps to protect yourself from the natives and mutants. Use invisibility to avoid them or face them in an open battle
- Building: You can construct a small shelter or a gigantic fortress
If you don’t want to fight alone, you can use the co-op multiplayer, both online and offline with up to 4 players.
Metacritic: 78 % for the PS4 version, 83 % for the PC version
Steam Reviews: “Very Positive,” 94 % positive user reviews with over 220,000 ratings
Who is The Forest suitable for? The Forest is particularly aimed at horror fans who want to experience fear and panic as constant companions in a game. The convincing atmosphere and unique creatures like the Wild, who wear masks made of human faces, can even send shivers down the spine of seasoned players.
The Forest captivates you not with endlessly long building sessions, but with gripping action and a foreseeable end to the story. The game is aimed at an adult community. You will enjoy it as a solo player, but also with friends.
