On April 30, 2018, and after a period of early access, The Forest was released. The title took the form of a survival game full of crafting and dangers, but offered the luxury of having a more in-depth narration than usual to maintain attention.

Released at a time when games of the genre were multiplying, The Forest knew how to place itself above the fray by offering a very good balance between exploration, survival and narration. Everything was wrapped in a successful atmosphere, which it was possible to feel in solo as well as in multiplayer.
