The Forest Thrives on ps4 as Sons of the Forest hype Brings in More Fans

Sons of the Forest, the newly released survival game on PC, has had an unexpected effect on the PS4 release of its predecessor, The Forest, as Sons of the Forest has actually increased The Forest's popularity, making it one of the most popular PS4 games in Europe and the United States.

Sales of The Forest have increased by a whopping 150% since the sequel's release, according to The Gamer. This could be because Sons of the Forest is only available on PC via Early Access, leaving many console players eager to explore the game's creepy forest setting and battle mutant creatures and cannibals.

Unknown

Despite Sons of the Forest's success on Steam, where it sold two million copies on its first day, it is unknown whether the game will ever be released on PlayStation. However, with The Forest's unexpected sales boost, it's clear that there is still a strong demand for this type of survival game on consoles, and it would be surprising if Endnight didn't capitalize on that.

Positives and negatives

While Sons of the Forest has had its fair share of positive reviews, players have also reported issues with bugs and glitches and expressed their dislike of the lackluster story,

Despite this, the game's popularity has remained high, and its success will undoubtedly cause other game developers to take notice of the survival genre.

Old favorite

It appears that Sons of the Forest has not only provided players with an exciting new experience, but has also helped to revive interest in its predecessor. It just goes to show that the sequel can sometimes help to breathe new life into an old favorite.
