Right now, the game is available on steam, and we are having a great time exploring the island.

You get to know his name from the badge on his shirt. Although he is unharmed from the first sight of him, but he doesn’t speak. He will be your worthy companion throughout the game, especially if you properly give him commands.

So this article will guide you on how to give commands to Kelvin in Sons of the Forest.

How to give Commands to Kelvin in Sons of the Forest

As soon as you crash into the island, you can spot Kelvin. Kelvin is a survivor, and you can choose whether you want to interact with him. When you interact with him, you will find a stream of blood gushing down his ears, and he doesn’t respond. So we have to find a different way to communicate with him.

Kelvin relies on his notepad to answer all your commands. When you meet him, you can initially pick commands like Follow me, Take Item, etc. However, you can give him various other commands, and he will do his best to keep up with it.

Although we suggest you to make him follow you till you find and set up a base camp, you can thereafter order him to either begin looking for the supplies or set up the basics of the camp, like a resting place and an eating place. You can ask him to clear the surrounding area, bring logs, catch fish, and most things that are necessary for survival.

You will be able to change the orders that you give to Kelvin by pressing the E button. Press it when you approach Kelvin; his notebook will pop up, and you can select his orders. You will also find Kelvin resting after completing the work you gave him, and if you see him relaxing, don’t worry, as he will return to work soon.

So this was all about how to give commands to Kelvin in Sons of the Forest.
