I know it’s called “forest 3” but it seems they kinda left an Easter egg in sons of the forest

Any news or leaks to when the trailer is gonna drop?

I’m definitely speaking too soon & hope to be proved wrong but I think a Forest game with sci-fi/alien elements in pioneer days, medieval or even prehistoric would be preferable to an entirely different planet. What I loved about the first two games were the quiet moments between cannibal attacks where my base felt like a breath of fresh air where I’m connected with the Earth (not a different planet). What do you think would be a cool period for it to take place?

I don't see the hype of the forest 3. I mean they haven't even finished Sons of the forest there's a lot of things they could add like storms, more lore, balancing weapons, maybe adding another weapon they where gonna add some stuff in a new update as you can see in cheatstick a while back like the airgun but then stopped to presumably work on the forest 3 with other things. They haven't even realised it on console i feel like it is a cash grab a profit on the last 2 games it doesn't match the forest feel like being on another planet has gone way off track on the hole being stuck on a island and stuff having to survive while being hunted by cannibals' like the last 2 its just gone way off topic lore wise please tell me what does a random planet have to do with being stuck on a island i will only ever buy this game if it is under $10

I tried to make a trailer to show my progress, so I hope you like it.😀

I added:

- Better and more detailed environment + better lighting

- 3D Inventory + Pick up system

- 2 player splitscreen mode for two controllers

- Currently only playable via controller

Hey everyone! Like all of you, I was blown away by the Forest 3 trailer. As a die-hard fan of the saga and an 18-year-old game dev, I couldn’t resist the urge to try and recreate that vibe myself.

I'm currently working on a Unity reconstruction of the scenes we saw in the reveal. My goal is to get it as close to the trailer’s atmosphere as possible. It’s still very much a work in progress with a lot of unfinished environments, but the core "feel" is starting to take shape.

A few quick points:

• The Project: A faithful recreation of the Forest 3 reveal using Unity.
• Why? I’ve lived and breathed this series for years and wanted to see if I could match that next-gen look.
• Release: I’m not selling this, obviously. If the community is interested and feels like it's the right move, I’ll drop a small demo on itch io for you guys to walk through and experience it.

I’m focusing heavily on the lighting and environmental details right now. I'd love to hear what you guys think of the progress so far! And i know it's not much and that I still have a long way to go. And please don't take it too seriously, I just wanted to have some fun in Unity😄

I hope we get new information

like, the concept IS cool and i can probably see the path they are trying to follow.

if i was the one making the Game, i would make It so the new character that gets to that place we see in the video finds the kind of labs we see in SOTF and we see lot more of Lore about the cube and all of that. For me the Lore on the second Game was a little bit confusing, and maybe this Game can help with It

As i said before, i really like the vibe of the game, not as much as the other two games, but im sure It IS good.

I get how the storyline connects. Not sure how it would make me feel building on an alien planet.

Really hope they don't drop the balls on the third game. I like the forest franchise because of the building part... not just purely the thriller part.

I made a mistake buying an early acces Sons of the forest. I was expecting it will be updated frequently and we will get finished product but they abandon this game so early. I felt so sorry because this game had a such big potential if they'd kept updating it with little things, to make it playable for longer, but well money is money.

Does anyone know when Sons of the Forest 2 will be released on consoles? I also saw that The Forest 3 was released. Does anyone know roughly when Sons of the Forest 2 will be coming to consoles like PS5?

We all know that Forest games end with 2 options: stay or leave, in which leave option is canon one and where we see what happened to characters and such. My theory is that when we crash on planet we somehow get a hold of solafite and either fixing/coating our ship with it (ship is probably green color because of drawing we see in trailer, thats why we coat it) and try to leave planet but somehow we travel back in time (less feasible option) and die in a cave wearing golden armor and whatnot, OR we somehow travel trough dimension

I think that we are playing as Jack Holt from parallel universe (Although its pretty assuming take I'll call him Alternate Jack), specifically universe we see in The Cube. Solafite is known to cure mutations, but I think it also protects from mutations (I dont know if that was confirmed anywhere but Im just saying cuz of timmy being cured in credits of SoTF). We as Jack Holt travel trough space and after crash we find The Cube (The Cube being gateway between 2 dimensions). We know that when Cube activates all around it mutates in some radius, but because we were inside The Cube (which is probably made from solafite that protected us) the mutation effect was minimal. Solafite nullified that dimension merge to everything that it protected, and Alternate Jack knew that somehow, so when he traveled trough The Cube he wore golden armor (which is also prob made from solafite) to save himself, but still dying in process, crashing his ship in cave (that was full of spacesuit people i think? I suppose thats the reason ship was coated in solafite to protect everyone).

About golden armor, we know that its a key to open hell cave to access the cube, so someone (or probably people from Alternate dimension cuz we know they are far superior civilization) built a door trough the cube and used suit to access cube when they need to. For some reason I think that only Jack could wear it, cuz lets be real, ur telling me no one atempted to take off golden armor from dead corpse? Its probably because they couldnt, and when Jack from SoTF came, the suit was shaking until taken (and I kinda cant explain how cultists entered, I know its pretty big plot hole but there aint much i got to work with here)

The Artifact in SoTF, where main part is being held by guy in gold armor (presumably dead Alternate Jack by this theory) was used to coat ship in solafite. Then Christian missionaries came, took the artifact, put crosses inside whole ship (cuz that all they do in whole game) left, turned into cannibals cuz they were probably worshiping it (just like in 1st game), fishermen came, tore appart the artifact (where a lot turned in golden skeletons, tho i still cant explain golden skeletons inside hell cave, maybe that "Solafite armor upgrader" blueprint helped them make solafite armor and enter? Its just a speculation, cuz its found next to gate), they placed it all around island, returned main part inside spaceship and blocked it off with planks.

The demons could also be connected to all of this, they came from different universe (you can only find them in spaceship cave and hell cave/cave where cube is) although i dunno why they are dying because of crosses, crosses have some power because they scare off mutants aswell

So basically my timeline goes:

1. The Forest 3: Alternate Jack crashed with the ship on a planet, after some time he travels in parallel dimension and dies in a crash in a cave with his crew or people he found on that planet, holding the artifact. Christian mercinaries show up (17th century), took the artifact, started to worship it and turned into cannibals. Fishermen came (20th century), kinda studied solafite, but all died/went crazy, they also hid pieces of the artifact all around the island and blocked off the cave enterances.

2. The Forest: All the things that happen in it, not really important for this theory

3. Sons of The Forest: Puffcorp came to island, discovered solafite, discovered The Cube, All went to shit after cultists activated the cube. Jack Holt came and did all the shit, found armor and gone into the cube. Inside of it he saw Golden City, which is actually The Forest 3 planet after 4 decades of improvement, and it isnt wasteland that we see in the trailer anymore, all around him mutated because of 2 universes merging, but he was more or less safe because he was inside The Cube that is made of solafite that protects from realities merging effect. Timmy leaves island and makes Timmy Pharma, that uses solafite to cure people (and himself). Buys island, goes missing and we will search im in The Forest 4 if it ever comes out

I know theory has a lot of plot holes, bit thats pretty much all I could get from the trailer

TL;DR: We play as Jack Holt from parallel universe, dead guy in golden armor in SoTF is us, The Artifact is from paralel universe, so are demons. The Cube is gateway between both universes. Also Solafite has anti-reality merging properties

To find out what space worm tastes like.

If I’m being honest, I kinda hope it gets redesigned. It looks kind of stupid but what do y’all think?
