▋Why host a dedicated Sons of the Forest server?
Sons of the Forest strands you on a cannibal-infested island with a lot of rope, a log or two, and questionable AI companions. Dedicated servers keep your base, story progress, and traps persistent for up to 8 players.
HyperNode servers deploy in minutes with editable dedicatedserver.cfg, automated saves, and enough headroom for the game's demanding late-game bases.
