UNOFFICIAL & fan-made. SOTF Map is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with Endnight Games. "Sons of the Forest" and all related names, marks and assets belong to their respective owners. This is an independent map app made by the MetaForge team for players of the game. SOTF Map puts the complete community-mapped island in your pocket — every cave, bunker, keycard, weapon, tool and resource, on a fast native map you can use while you play. THE WHOLE ISLAND • 3,700+ community-verified locations across 8 categories and 100+ marker types. • Smooth pinch, pan and zoom, sharpening all the way to full map detail. • Tap any marker for its details — many caves and bunkers include a full loot list and walkthrough notes. FIND ANYTHING • Filter by any of 100+ marker types — bunker entrances, cave exits, cellars, artifacts, blueprints, keycards, golden armour, 3D printers and more. • Search by name and the map flies straight to it: the katana, the shovel, the rebreather, the rope gun. TRACK YOUR RUN • Mark locations as found and they dim on the map — or hide them completely. • Per-category progress, so you can see the keycards and artifacts you still need. YOUR OWN PINS • Long-press anywhere to drop your own pin — your base, a stash, a danger spot, a resource patch — with a name, a note, six icons and six colours. BUILT TO USE WHILE PLAYING • Works offline: the map data is cached on your device after the first load. • No account, no sign-up, no ads. Your pins and progress stay private on your phone and are never uploaded. — Marker data is mapped by the MetaForge community. Unofficial & fan-made.
