There are certain items that are absolutely crucial to your survival in Sons of the Forest. From a basic shelter to food and water, players' first few hours on the island in the new survival-horror game will be all about trying to find these items so they can stay alive. One of these tools is the Rope Gun, which allows players to access ziplines, which are required for several caves scattered around the island. If you're struggling to find the Rope Gun, don't worry, as you're certainly not alone. In this guide, we'll be going over all of the steps required to acquire the Rope Gun in Sons of the Forest.

Sons of the Forest Rope Gun location

Unfortunately, the location of the Rope Gun is not an easy place to reach. First, players will need to make their way to the western side of the map, right in between the ocean and the snowy mountain range. There, players will find a cave that leads them down a winding trek which will result in them finding the Rope Gun. You can see exactly where the cave is located on the map in the GPS screenshot below.

Once you're near this location on the map, you will see a green blip appear on your map. Head toward the green blip until you find a large boulder with three humans resting on spikes in front of it. This is the entrance to the cave. All you need to do is head into the entrance, press "E" to enter, and then bring out whatever light source you have on hand. We recommend a flashlight, but a torch works just as well.
