Sons Of The Forest Dedicated Servers, How to Host a Server

Are there Dedicated Servers in Sons Of The Forest? The sequel to the popular 2018 survival horror is finally here, albeit in early access. One of the core features of the original game was the so-called Dedicated Server, which allowed players to host their own servers 24/7. Is this feature available in Sons Of The Forest? Let’s find out.

UPDATE: It seems that Sons Of The Forest doesn’t feature Dedicated Servers at the early access launch. Nevertheless, this feature will most likely be added in some future updates. We will make sure to update the article once we have more information.

Does Sons Of The Forest Has Dedicated Servers

Endnight Games, the Sons Of The Forest developers, are finally ready to share the sequel. However, the game is not yet ripe for full release. Rather, it will hit Steam on February 23rd as an early-access game. This means we will play an unfinished product, with more features and content to be added in the following months until the full release. What does this mean for Sons Of The Forest dedicated servers? Will they be in the early access build?

In The Forest, the original game, these servers were added in update v0.59. They were added as a separate tool which you can find under “Tools” in your Steam library. This feature allows players to create multiplayer games that constantly run at their homes or through Server providers. Naturally, it is a very useful feature, especially for a larger group of friends who want to play co-op or PvP multiplayer. The developers haven’t yet confirmed or denied if Sons Of The Forest will have Dedicated Servers at the early access launch. Hence, once the early access kicks off, you must check it manually. To check it, do as follows:

• Open your Steam library.
• Open the drop-down menu under “Home” (the menu says “Games” by default).
• Check “Tools”.
• Type “Forest” in your library’s search bar.
• Finally, check if it shows “Sons Of The Forest Dedicated Server”.

If it is not there, it means that the developer is yet to add this feature in Sons Of The Forest early access. We will endeavour to update the article once we have more information. For now, that’s all you need to know about Sons Of The Forest Dedicated Servers.
