Upon the release of Sons of the Forest on Steam, there were issues with the servers. Fans were unable to purchase the game or even access the shop page at all. However, the game is already a massive success on Twitch, with many streamers showcasing the new survival game. MeinMMO recommends some channels to you.
What is happening with Sons of the Forest? At release, Sons of the Forest already boasts 719,000 viewers – and the trend is rising. The long-standing favorite, League of Legends, had only about 300,000 viewers at the same time.
