How to play coop or multiplayer in Sons of the Forest

Sons of the Forest offers both multiplayer and single player options. At the start of the game, you have the option to either start the game as a single player campaign or quickly join other players. You also have the option to host a multiplayer game.


When you are ready to play the game with your friends, all you have to do is click on the multiplayer option and you can decide who will host the game among your friends. While joining a game you have two different filter options, Friends Only and Mode. If you enable Friends Only, you can currently only see friends online in-game.


Also, make sure the host you chose for the game is on your Steam friends list to make this process easier. You can also share your server name and let others join if you want to play with others. However, select one from the featured servers list if you want to dive into a random server.


If you are chosen to host the game, you will be able to choose the server's difficulty rating and set a limit on the number of players you would like on your server. Remember you can have up to 8 players on a single hosted server and limit them to between two and eight. If you enable friends only in the multiplayer host menu, only your friends will be able to join your server. It's good to see so many multiplayer options for an indie game like this.
