will introduce the location information including a modern axe, a flashlight, a pistol, a machete, a pot, glider, binoculars and a glider launcher blueprint.
※ The content below contains extremely disgusting cannibals, monsters, cannibalism, and mentally disgusting screenshots. If you don’t want to see these things, don’t read this article.
The screenshots below are a mix of ones I’ve played with the language set to Korean, some with the language set to English, some I’ve played a long time ago, and some I’ve played recently.

🚩Essential Loots Locations+
There are three helicopter crash sites, but when starting a normal game, you will usually begin near Cave B, which is at location 1 on the map below. The second crash site is near Cave A at location 5 on the map, and the third is at location 18, which is a snowy mountain area with a small ice cave.
⌨️Console Commands
This is how to enter the cheat keys built into the game. If you don’t want to cheat the game, ignore this.
If you press the “ESC” key during the game and enter “cheatstick” on the frozen screen that appears, then return to the game and press the F1 key, the Console Commands screen will appear as shown on the right below, and you can execute various cheat codes by entering a specific key.
If you press “F1” key again while the Console Commands screen is displayed, it will disappear.
Below I will tell you about the “gotozone” and “goto” commands that allow you to jump directly to a specific location.
For gotozone commands, simply enter an index indicating a specific location, such as “gotozone FL⏎ (Enter key)”. For the index code, please refer to the article shared by Kajan in the Steam community at the link below.
It may not be exactly in that location, and sometimes there is fall damage because it is a sloping place, so I will tell you where there is fall damage when moving with the gotozone code in a future article.
Goto commands are used to move to an exact location by entering X, Z, and Y coordinates. These codes have already been shared on “Sons of the WIKI” at the link below.
And some locations are ones I found or have been confirmed and updated by me due to game updates.
it will not work once you have fallen through the floor and into an unusual location during gameplay.
🗺️Mapgenie Maps
Referring to the MapGenie map for the locations of cannibal camps or abandoned camps can help you find the necessary loots.
⚡Stun baton near Cave B (goto -1145 132 -163⏎)
This is location number 1 on the map on the left below.
The stun baton is not a essential item because it consumes a lot of battery, but it is a good weapon to stop attacking enemies for a moment when you are short on ammunition or arrows for other weapons. The location of this is as shown below, along with some skeletons in the stream near Cave B (the cave with the rope gun).
If you do not receive this item and stand still right in front of it, up to two squirrels will come one after another to show you that this is a stun baton, and they will be electrocuted and become dead in front of you. Then, you can get their meats.
🗞️Small Cave (GPS, Note, Glider Launcher Blueprints)
goto BlueprintHangGliderLauncherPickup
The above code no longer works once you get the blueprint.
If you go near location 12 on the map below, you will see an orange GPS, and when you get there, you will find a worker’s corpse and a printed email in front of a small cave.
Enter this cave and keep going straight. When you come to a place like the one below, keep going straight to the right and you will come to a place with a glider launcher blueprint.
If you go left at the fork, there is a place with very deep water below, so if you mark this with a tent to make with tarp, you can safely jump out when being chased by cannibals or mutants.
🔤How to translate Note ft. AI
The information below is necessary for those who have set their language settings to a language other than English.
The notes found in the game are not translated at all, no matter what language you select, so I am putting this together for reference.
The attached images are equivalent when translated into Korean.
I mainly used DeepL translator until May 2024, but recently, DeepL translator is unnecessarily expensive and frequently causes strange translation errors, such as translating by changing the subject and object. It is not practical because the cost is not refundable.
As of June 2024, the translation functions of Google, chatGPT 4o, and MS Word all have relatively good grammar and word selection.
Of these, the translation below is attempted in Google Chrome because Google services are free and easy to use.
Upload the screenshot you captured as shown below by clicking “Search by image” on the far right of the search bar in the Google browser.
As shown below, search results based on the image and recognized content will appear. If you click the “translate” button at the bottom left and select the language you want, it will be translated and displayed.
🔨Mordern Axe, pot in abandoned camp (goto -703 105 448⏎)
You can go get a modern axe, an essential weapon to fight mutants in the cave. It is location number 2 on the map below. Number 8 is Maintenance Bunker A, where you’ll need a shovel. The cave with the shovel is number 7. There is a related clue in the cave with the rope gun, and you must have the rope gun and rebreather (Cave A) to go inside.
If you move towards the smoke you will find an abandoned camp.
When you get close, the soldier falls down… If you destroy the laptop and radio, you can get a circuit board.
A modern axe is seen in front of a soldier’s corpse in an abandoned camp.
Once you get used to hitting mutants in caves, you will benefit from this axe as it is stronger than a regular axe. As you become more proficient, you will be able to defeat even Fingers with a modern axe.
You can save your game or sleep in a tent in an abandoned camp.
🧭GPS, Violet exclamation mark icon ft. 🔦Flashlight
(goto -623 153 384⏎)
If you cut the rope tied to the rock at the location in the screenshot below, a teammate who probably committed suicide will fall to the floor. I checked and found that I could cut the rope with a stone arrow. However, since arrows cannot be retrieved, do not attempt this when you are short on materials.
🔫Lifeboat ft. Pistol (goto -1796.8 15.5 578⏎)
If you jump with the goto command above, you’ll land right on top of the boat, no need to swim.
After drinking (hydration) and eating well at the nearest beach near the lifeboat, press the Shift key and swim to the boat like you would when sprinting. When you get close and see the E key, press it to go up to the boat.
Here you can get the GPS from the team member’s corpse and the pistol on the book.
The shark continues to circle around the boat. In the past, you would pass by so that you could see the fins, but if you were to look hard, you wouldn’t be able to see them. At normal level, you can defeat it by shooting 5 shots into the center of the shark’s body, just below the fin, with a pistol.
When bitten by a shark, you take damage equal to 1/5 of your maximum health. Although sharks are dangerous, dying from a shark bite is difficult enough to include dying from a shark bite in achievements.
Still, just in case, before coming to the lifeboat, make a tent out of a tarp, save your game, and then try to avoid being bitten by a shark.
🕶️How to make the ocean invisible
If you use the cheat to clear the sea, you can directly see that there are at least 5 to 6 sharks in this area. (togglego CrestOcean⏎) If you type “togglego CrestOcean⏎” one more time, it will return to its original state.
This code only changes what you see, so if you go into the sea after using it, you have to swim.
🏃♂️How to get rid of the ocean
To move around the ocean like on land, type “togglego OceanZone⏎” and you can run around in the ocean. If you enter this code again, it will return to its original state.
💀Cave A (goto -423 16 1514, GPS: Entertainment bunker location, Rebreather, Artifacts 1, Stun gun)
I will write a separate article for the walkthrough of Cave A and include a link to it here.
The screenshot below captures the mutant stalker Virginia.
After the release of version 1.0, you and Virginia need to become familiar enough with each other that a bag icon will appear when you approach Virginia.
You no longer have to be nice to get the “Chivarly is not dead” achievement. Detailed information regarding this achievement will be updated in the future.
Of course, in order to survive on this island for a long time, you have to befriend her and give her a shotgun, which makes her an average, if not great, bodyguard.
🔪Machete, pot near Cave A (goto -47 19 1456)
The abandoned camp near Cave A contains a machete, a pot, and other items.
🛩️Foldable Glider (goto -1299 82 1738)
The location of the glider near location 38 on the map below.
🔭Binoculars (goto -1115 19 1720)
Binoculars are an item that is not very helpful in playing the game, but I find them useful when observing Virginia’s actions.
