Navigating through the "Sons of the Forest" map is essential for finding resources, tools, and key items. From the start, the game provides a handheld GPS tracker, which is instrumental in identifying points of interest, including locations for Kelvin and Virginia.

The game features diverse biomes and terrains, each presenting unique challenges and resources. The central region, characterized by snowy mountains, offers a harsher climate compared to the warmer outskirts. Players might find building their base on the map's edge more advantageous due to the milder weather and resource availability. Understanding the seasonal changes and weather patterns is crucial for survival and strategic planning in Sons of the Forest.

In my experience, thoroughly exploring the map and utilizing the GPS tracker has been pivotal in locating essential items and planning my survival strategy. The diversity of biomes not only adds to the game's immersion but also influences decision-making, from base location to resource gathering.

Key Item Locations in Sons of the Forest

The map is dotted with various tools and key items essential for progression. Notable tools include the following:

GPS locators and keycards are marked distinctly on the map, aiding in navigation and access to new areas. Weapons like shotguns and katanas are also pinpointed, ensuring players are well-equipped to face the island's dangers.
