Sons of the Forest Can Opener: How to Open Canned Food

By
Craig Robinson

You will likely encounter canned food as you journey through the mysterious island on the Sons of the Forest. However, getting into the tinned food is only possible with the right tool, the "Can Opener" iconCan Opener. Luckily for you, we know where the Can Opener is in the Sons of the Forest.

As far as we can tell, there is only one location of a Can Opener in the Sons of the Forest. Players will need to head into the mountain area. If you spawned in the mountain, then you’re in luck, as the helicopter crash shit is next to it. If you spawned on the beach, you’ve got a bit of running to do.

So, head towards the mountain and ascend it the best you can. You need to head towards the mountain. To climb up, you must follow the pathways up the mountain from the cave with the slingshot in front of it. There should be a small stream going up the mountain path that you can follow to reach it.

Once when you get to the top of the mountain, or near the area where the helicopter crashes in the mountain you then need to continue to follow a stream. It will take you to part of the mountain that is considered cold. But, don’t worry too much about that, as you will only be there briefly.

The stream will take you to enclosed area within the mountain peaks, with an ice lake, and some tent. Beside one of the orange tents is a Can Opener, which you can pick up. There will also be some canned cat food around the area as well.

Now you have the Can Opener, you need to enter your inventory by pressing “I”. Once there, you will be able to find can food in the left side of the screen, along with the Can Opener in the bottom left in the tool belt area. Simply right-click both items onto the crafting mat and combine them to open the canned food. Once the food is opened, you can then eat it to restore your hunger meter.

And there you have it, you now know how to get the Can Opener in Sons of the Forest and open cat food, and other canned food items.
