How to Obtain the Nightvision Goggles in Sons of the Forest
Before you start your journey you should be aware that you will need the Rebreather to complete this quest. If you don’t have the Rebreather yet, it can be found in a cave at this beach location:
Where to Find the Nightvision Goggles
The Nightvision Goggles are hidden in caves near a lake (marked on the map below). Searching caves is pretty treacherous so make sure you are well-equipped with ammo, food, water, medicine, and crafting supplies. As mentioned above, you will also need the Rebreather to help with underwater travel.
Following the steps below will lead you directly to the Nightvision Goggles:
- Destroy all boards blocking your way into the cave
- Dive into the water (using the Rebreather)
- Head right to grab whatever supplies are hidden there
- Proceed down the slope to a large room with pictures of figures on the wall
- The Nightvision Goggles are on the head of the dead cultist

This supremely useful bit of tech was added in patch 03 in April 2023, along with a new rideable EUC, a trap that can fling enemies away, and new additions to the construction system. There is only one place you can find the Nightvision Goggles and luckily(?!) this deadly cave system is also where you will find the Golden Armor, so you can grab both in one journey.
The caves are full of deadly creatures so do not take on this quest lightly! You’ve got to be ready, well-equipped, and slightly mad to take on this endeavor. If you need to stock up on arrows before you go check out our guide on how to make arrows in Sons of the Forest.
