Not without a challenge

Sons of the Forest, Endpoint Games’ cannibal island survival sequel to The Forest, gets its full launch on February 21 and as with most Steam games, it comes with a long list of achievements to tackle while you survive.

For those who have been playing the game during its year-long early access period, a lot of these achievements will be fairly familiar, but even those who would now consider themselves experts in the game can have a hard time reaching some of the newer milestones.

Whether you’re getting ready to start your Sons of the Forest experience, or you’ve been playing for a while, here’s how to get all of the Steam achievements for the game. 

Basic Sons of the Forest achievements

These achievements are very straightforward. They’re gained through doing something specific, and there’s no additional information needed in order to get them, so you should be able to gain these achievements fairly easily by simply playing the game.

Fashionista

Fashionista requires the player to find all of the hidden items of clothing found throughout the bunkers and caves on the island. To do this, you’ll need to get your hands on all of the key cards, as they’ll give you access to where a lot of these outfits are hidden. While most of these outfits can be worn by the player, some are specifically for Virginia. 

Here’s the full list of outfits you’ll need to find to get the Fashionista achievement:

  • Tactical Jacket
  • Blazer
  • Leather Jacket
  • Tuxedo
  • Wet Suit
  • Pajamas
  • Winter Jacket
  • Hoodie
  • Priest Outfit
  • Space Suit
  • Swimsuit (Virginia only)
  • Track Suit (Virginia only)
  • Dress (Virginia only)
  • Camouflage Suit (Virginia only)
  • Leather Suit (Virginia only)

Maker

In the bunkers scattered across the island, you’ll find 3D Printers which can be used to print various items that can be useful to survival. In order to print these items, you’ll need Printer Resin, which can be found all over the island.

Here’s what you’ll need to print to get the Maker achievement:

  • Mask
  • Flask
  • Grappling Hooks
  • Tech Mesh
  • Arrows
  • Sled

MC Crafty

While there are a number of high damage weapons, such as Guns, a Crossbow, and even a Katana, scattered around the island to find and use, to begin with you’ll need to craft your own weapons to survive the first few days. 

You’ll need to craft one of each of the following to get the MC Crafty achievement:

  • Torch
  • Crafted Bow
  • Crafted Club
  • Crafted Spear
  • Repair Tool
  • Molotov

Foodie

There are a lot of foods available on the islands and not all of them seem edible (anyone for some cooked human leg?), but you’ll have to munch your way through every single one of them in order to get this achievement. This is a very long list, so I’ll break it into types to help you work your way through them.
