Early Access Blockbuster: Sons of the Forest Sells Over 2 Million Copies in 24 Hours, Tops Steam Wishlist Ahead of Starfield
The hype for Sons of the Forest has translated into an astounding sales success as the game sold more than 2 million copies within 24 hours of its early access launch. Developer Endnight Games thanked fans on Twitter for their support and promised more thrilling gameplay in the coming weeks.
Sons of the Forest - The Most Wishlisted Game on Steam
Sons of the Forest was the most wishlisted game on Steam ahead of the launch, surpassing even the highly-anticipated Starfield and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The game takes players on a terrifying journey to a remote island in search of a missing billionaire, but they soon realize that the island is swarming with cannibals.
Early Access Game by Endnight Games
While the game was originally planned for release last year, Endnight Games decided to delay it for further polishing. However, the game is still in early access, meaning the developers have more work to do.
Expected Early Access Duration
Currently available on Steam, Sons of the Forest is expected to remain in early access for 6 to 8 months. With its record-breaking sales, the game is poised for continued success, as long as development stays on track.
