Walkthrough Sons of the Forest - in what order to inspect the dungeons, how to find all beacons, key cards and golden armor

Sons of the Forest is an open-world survival simulator where players will have to fight cannibals and monsters, and solve the mysteries of the island. In this guide, we will describe a detailed walkthrough of the game, as well as tell you in what order to inspect the dungeons and how to find all beacons and key cards.

Game Tips

In Sons of the Forest, the first thing you need to do is find three beacons. They are all highlighted with purple markers on your GPS. Getting to two of them is quite easy, but the third can only be taken with a shovel. Therefore, you will first have to inspect several caves, find a cable launcher and a shovel, and only then inspect the marker with the third beacon.

How exactly to survive in the open world of Sons of the Forest is up to you. You can set up a shelter first and prepare for winter, or you can immediately go in search of beacons.

As you progress through the story, the seasons will change. By the time you find a rope launcher and a shovel, autumn will come. And a little later, the open world of the game will be covered with snow and winter will come. At this point, it is desirable to have a well-equipped base with a fence and at least one shelter, as the cannibals will begin to conduct real raids and will try to kill you.

At the beginning of the passage, we recommend crafting primitive weapons (spear, homemade bow, and arrows) to hunt small animals while exploring the island.

How to find the first beacon in an inflatable boat

Appearing on the beach, first of all, inspect the plastic containers and bring Kelvin to his senses. Put up a tent, and be sure to create a spear. Grab your GPS and look around. There is a cave nearby, but now it is dangerous to go there because quite a lot of monsters roam inside. We recommend that you first get to the first beacon in an inflatable boat. Here you can also pick up the first serious weapon - a pistol.

From the helicopter crash site, turn to face the center of the island and run east. The beacon is highlighted on the right side of the map. Along the way, you will come across another GPS tracker. But it is buried underground, and you will not have a shovel now. Ignore him and run towards the bay.

On the shore, you can find a cache of supplies and ammo. It is located to the right of the boat's location on the map.

Before swimming to the boat, we recommend that you fully restore your health, as there is at least one shark swimming in the water (some players claim that there can be several at once). On medium difficulty, a shark bite takes about a quarter of the hero's vitality. It is worth noting that there are no medicines in the boat, so you will have to use the pills from the emergency package or craft several herbal healing kits.

To do this, use the ingredients:

Yarrow (1);
Aloe (1).

In the boat with one of the squad members, you will find a walkie-talkie, some supplies, and a pistol. Don't forget to pick up a GPS beacon.

How to find the second beacon

Go back and follow the lighthouse, which is located closer to the center of the island. Still, ignore the GPS tracker buried underground.

Along the way, we recommend visiting a point of interest (green marker). Such points will also need to be examined in the story, but specifically, in this one, you will find a 3D printer - a very useful item.

In the same bunker, you will find arrows for a homemade bow and you can print them on a printer. In addition, you will meet a locked door, which requires a key card to open. Remember this place and get out. Follow the purple marker.

At this mark, you will find the corpse of one of the rescuers, which is suspended from a rope. You need to climb the hill and cut the cable so that the corpse falls down. If you're playing co-op, it's even easier to do so.

Search the corpse and take the second GPS tracker. We also recommend that you explore the area near it. Some players have reported finding a simple flashlight here.

Where to find scuba

Next, you have to find scuba gear. He is needed according to the plot to overcome underwater caves. On low difficulty, it may not come in handy, but on medium and high difficulties, you will die trying to overcome an underwater barrier.

To do this, you need to return to the crash site of the helicopter. Not far from this location, there is a cave that you need to explore.

Along the way, you will find another point of interest with a green marker. You can visit it and go down to the underground bunker.

There will be supplies inside, as well as a locked door. Remember this place, we will return here later.

Between these two locations, you can also stumble upon a camp that has supplies and a corpse. Here you will also find a modern axe.

When you're ready, continue towards the scuba cave. At the entrance, pick up an oxygen tank and ammo. Move forward and get ready to face the monsters. There will be several of them, so we recommend getting rid of them one at a time. If the enemies manage to surround you, then the hero will die.

At the first fork, turn left and run forward until you find yourself in an adit with water. The scuba lies in this room on the right. Here you can pick up another cylinder with oxygen.

To get out, you can return the same way, or put on a scuba gear and swim under water. If you choose the second option, then be prepared that you may be attacked by a shark. If you decide to go back through the adits, then be sure to meet with several monsters that will appear here.

We recommend going back to the cave and inspecting the second fork that leads to the right side of the dungeon. At the dead end, you will find a corpse suspended from the ceiling, from which you can pick up a shocker.

Where to find a rope launcher

The next obligatory item for the passage of the plot is a rope launcher. You will need this weapon to get over the wall into the dungeon where the shovel is hidden. All caves are located close to each other, so it will be difficult for you to get confused.

Come inside and examine some skeletons. Supplies will be scattered around them. We also advise you to prepare, because monsters will definitely meet in the cave.

Kill the big guys in the big hall and pick up the letter from the corpse of the worker. At the forks, follow all the time to the left. At some point, you will run into a huge monster. In order not to waste ammo for firearms, we recommend using explosives. You can create it right in your inventory, and you should already have the necessary ingredients.

A little further you will fall into a large adit with several enemies. Also, get rid of them and keep to the left side. At the very end of the cave, you will come across a cliff. There will also be a suitcase with a rope thrower.

You can get out of the dungeon the same way you came. There is no other way out of the cave.

Where to find a shovel

Follow the cave, which is indicated in the screenshot below.

Walk a little forward to be in front of a cliff. Useful items sometimes spawn below, but you need to get over the wall. To do this, look up and interact with the rope so that the main character gets a rope launcher.

You will find yourself inside a cave. Put on your scuba gear and dive underwater. Swim down.

When you get to the surface, kill the only monster and inspect the adit. An air tank and a wetsuit will lie on the floor. With the help of the latter, you can quickly move underwater.

Further, you will also meet monsters, so be prepared to fight back. After reaching the water, dive again and swim to the opposite side. At the end of the cave near the cliff lies a corpse with a shovel. Take her.

How to find the red key card

After getting out of the cave, run to the nearest point of interest (green marker) and use a shovel. There will be several golf carts, as well as surveying equipment. You need to dig strictly in the center. So you will find a passage to the bunker.

Inside you will find a letter, a record cover, supplies, a 3D printer, a fire ax, and a red keycard.

How to find the orange key card

Return to the cave with the underground bunker. Before entering this cave, you can still watch two golf carts.

Go down to the bunker and unlock the door with the orange key card you found earlier.

There will be a long corridor and several rooms where greens are grown. In them, you will encounter a couple of monsters. Further, the premises will be flooded, but it is not necessary to wear scuba gear. Run forward until you reach a fork. In the room on the left, there will be several monitors with video recording, as well as an orange key card on the table.

With its help, you can open the locked door in the corridor and inspect the large hall. There will be a note, as well as a passage to the cave. Put on your scuba gear and dive into the water. You will find yourself in a cave nearby. Get ready to face several monsters.

How to find the third beacon and dig the grave

Now follow the last purple marker on your GPS tracker.

Use the shovel to dig up the grave and take out the beacon. Here you will also find some resources and a shotgun.

There are also four graves nearby. You can dig them up to find supplies.

From this point on, the game does not give any clues to where to follow the story. But since you have already found two key cards, it remains only to find the right doors where they can be used.

Where to find the blue key card

At the beginning of this guide, we described the bunker where you can first find a 3D printer. There is also a locked door here, to open which you will need an orange key card. Go to the cave and apply for the card on the door.

Go through the gym to the restrooms. There will be several monsters inside. Deal with them and inspect the room for useful supplies. Get to the bar. Walk past the man with the guitar in his mouth and examine the tables for visitors. On the far table on the right is a blue key card.

Go back a little and find a bright corridor. It leads to the cinema, where you will find a chainsaw.

There is also a passage to the cave, which leads to the exit to the surface.

Where to find an underground bunker with a revolver

By the time you get out, it will most likely be winter. It may come earlier, it all depends on how many keycards you have found. There will be several points of interest to visit on the map (green marker), but we recommend going to the one indicated in the screenshot below.

There will also be several golf carts and surveying equipment. Use the shovel to dig the entrance to the bunker and climb up. Inside you will find a revolver, printer resin, and other useful supplies.

Where to find golden armor

Move to the penultimate point of interest to find the items required for completing the story.

Enter the cave and go down the gap. There will be a ladder that you also need to go down. There is a door on the bottom floor. If you interact with her, a cut scene will start.

After the video, you will be able to fully explore the underground complex and find useful items, a katana, a pistol, a pistol lantern, and golden armor. The latter is needed to open the door in the final bunker.

Even lower will be the morgue, where you can find a golden mask. With its help, you can deceive any cannibals.

Open the last door with the keycard and get out through the cave.

The final

The last point of interest to visit to complete the storyline is right on the coast. Refer to the screenshot. You will notice that the entrance to the bunker is different from any you may have been before. You'll have to use the blue keycard to get here.

Climb down and run forward all the time, then turn right. You will find yourself in a room that looks more like a hotel room. There will be another shotgun and ammo on the bar counter.

You can use the bed to save yourself. There is a cross on the head of the bed (we do not know what it is for, but the hero automatically adds it to the inventory).

Then follow to the restroom. There is a hole in the wall - you go there. Walk a little further and look at the locked door with the silhouette of a hand. Put on the golden armor and interact with the door.

Next, you have a long way to the final cut scene. Strong monsters will be encountered along the way, so we recommend stocking up on first-aid kits and ammo. The path is linear, and you won't get lost.

After reaching the golden cube, watch the video, after which you can choose whether to stay on the island or fly away with the team. This concludes the Sons of the Forest storyline. If the developers add any secrets or expand the story of the game, we will update this guide in a timely manner.
