The Can Opener location is pretty easy to get to in Sons of the Forest. The only difficult part is figuring out where it is. Since the Can Opener is a relatively small item, it can be overlooked rather easily and there’s actually more than one location you can find it in. However, once you’ve picked up one Can Opener, you won’t be able to see the others that spawn. The easiest way to get one early on is to pay attention to the spawn closest to crash zones.
Can Opener Location in Sons of the Forest
The first of the two locations where you can find a Can Opener in Sons of the Forest is near the Beach Crash Zone. Looking out on the peninsula of beach that juts out into the water, you might notice some rocks along the coast. Wander through the rocky waterline on the North side of the area until you find a small area that holds loads of different types of food, wine, Oysters, and even watches. Among the loot will be the first Can Opener.
If you spawned in the Snow Crash Zone, then you’re in luck as well. There is a Can Opener nearby that you can grab quite easily without having to venture into any terrifying caves or take on any enemies. From the Crash Zone, follow the river up the mountain until you reach the frozen lake. From here, you’ll notice some sleds, a few skeletons, and a couple of red tents. The red tent to the right of the frozen lake that’s surrounded by green bags and yellow buckets is the one we want to focus on. On the ground in front of a cluster of three green bags will be the Can Opener.
Once you get your hands on the Can Opener, you’ll be free to use it whenever you’d like. While it doesn’t appear in your hand and isn’t equipable, it’s still very much usable. You just need to open up your inventory by pressing the I key on your keyboard, then combine the Can Opener with a can of food, then select the gear cog to open it up.
Sons of the Forest is now available on PC.
