Sons of the Forest, the long-awaited sequel to one of the best survival games of all time, The Forest, has entered early access format - but only for those who are able to play on PC.

The game opens with another plane crash on an island, where you’ll attempt to avoid getting eaten by cannibalistic mutants, and boasts new gameplay while maintaining the energy of its predecessor - collect resources and kill your enemies using everything from slingshots and pistols to a variety of axes, clubs and taser weapons.

Despite multiple delays in 2022, Endnight Games has stuck to its final drop date and released the game in Early Access on PC.

But will Sons of the Forest come to PS4, PS5 and Xbox? Read on to find out.

Will Sons of the Forest come to PS4, PS5 and Xbox?

Okay, the bad news, not yet. As of right now, a Sons of the Forest console release has not been announced for PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S or Nintendo Switch.

The good news, however, is that game developers haven't completely ruled bringing The Sons of the Forest to consoles. It's launching on PC to start with, but it could branch out later.

In a developer interview with Gaming Bolt, Endnight Games said: “We would love to come to console in the future, but are currently focused on delivering the best experience possible to PC players.”

It's worth noting, however, that when The Forest dropped as a PC exclusive all the way back in April 2018, it then came to PS4 in the November.

Until we hear anything official, we'll be keeping our fingers crossed and rewatching the trailer below:
