In the current Steam survival hit Sons of the Forest, many players have taken a liking to AI pals Kelvin and Virginia. In a question and answer session, the Endnight developers have now announced that the helpers will become even more useful and independent in the future. They also talk about how Sons of the Forest should develop on the way to the release and name eight specific points. The survival game is currently still in Early Access on Steam.
This is what the developers say about Kelvin: In a developer QA with fans of Discord and the 2 game subreddits, the developers say of everyone’s favorite Kelvin:
We have big plans to give Kelvin more quests to do. Some of the things we are working on is that he can help build a wall around your base or that he can reinforce and repair the base when needed.
What’s the idea for Virginia? The creators say about the mutant Virginia:
For Virginia, we plan to add more to her AI, like making her braver when she’s carrying a weapon, and also making that based on how many mutants and cannibals she’s already killed.

What are fans most excited about? “Dedicated servers” are also mentioned. They’re working on that as a team, but don’t have an exact date when they’ll be back.
In a YouTube video on QA, that’s the point that most people like. We had already expected that, but it was very nice to hear the confirmation again.
