Thanks to Update 3 for Sons of the Forest, babies’ corpses are now swimming. Yes, you read that right. It says so in the patch notes.

Update 3 for Sons of the Forest is here! The latest patch for the survival game not only brings numerous bug fixes and improvements, but also a handful of new content. For example, the unicycle Knight V, a night vision device or solar panels with which you can make light bulbs glow.

A very specific detail in the patch notes is also causing consternation and amusement in equal measure on Reddit: Apparently, baby corpses couldn’t swim before. Update 3 changes this and gives the bodies of the killed mutants buoyancy in the water. The patch notes for Update 3 literally state:

Dead babies now have buoyancy in water.

This is just a tiny bit disturbing and draws appropriate reactions from the community. We have linked a few of them for you as follows:

What else you should know about Update 3 of Sons of the Forest

But back to the topic at hand: Update 3 has been available for download since April 7, 2023 at 1am. You can find out exactly what the patch brings on page 2 of this article – there we have all the patch notes ready for you.

According to initial community reactions, it is of course the new content that is causing the most excitement. With the electric unicycle Knight V, there is now something like a vehicle in Sons of the Forest that allows you to move around the island much faster.Fans have already shared the location of the Knight V on Reddit.

The so-called Spring Trap (a kind of trap, that hurls its victim into the air), apparently also brings quite a lot of nonsense potential. For example, players have already used it to build a kind of elevator or shown how to combine the Spring Trap with the glider in order to get lift and fly through the area as quickly as possible:
