Guide to The Forest's Part 19: Explore the Submerged Cave, find the Rebreather, Torch, Crossbow, and more. Includes cave entrances and item locations.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Begin by swimming to the beach north-west of the Yacht for supplies, including batteries for the Torch. Follow the beach south for more cases.
  2. 2
    On the hill above this curved beach, find CACHE 2 containing clothes.
  3. 3
    Locate the anchor symbol on the map by the shore. Nearby is a blue tent for resting and saving, with an Old Pot in front.
  4. 4
    South of the tent, find a shipwreck out on the water near a small island. Save your game before approaching due to sharks.
  5. 5
    Check the submerged section of the shipwreck, marked by a floating log, to find a Rebreather hole. Down here, you'll find the CROSSBOW, bolts, and the CHURCH PAGE (1/4).
  6. 6
    From the blue tent, head east into the woods to a medium-sized pond. Turn north-west to find the Submerged Cave's Entrance 1 (SE) by a pile of boulders.
  7. 7
    OBJECTIVE: EXPLORE SUBMERGED CAVE
  8. 8
    Entrances:
    • Entrance 1 (SE): North-east of the anchor symbol, on the south-west coast.
  9. 9
    Entrance 2 (SW): West and slightly north of Entrance 1 (SE), another pile of boulders. Can be found by exiting the cave via its rope.
  10. 10
    Entrance 3 (N): Underwater in the geese pond, requires a Rebreather.
  11. 11
    Notable Items: 'Beneath The Limestone' Book, Bibles (2), Old Photo 3, Rebreather, Rusty Axe, Timmy's Toy (1), Torch, Virginia Photograph.
  12. 12
    Preparation: If entering via Entrance 3 (N), equip the Rebreather and an air canister. Otherwise, the Rebreather is found within the cave. There is one save point inside.
  13. 13
    Entering via Entrance 1 (SE), proceed down a tunnel north-west. Near some rocks at the bottom of a hill, a dangling rope leads up to Entrance 2 (SW). A Skull Lamp can help pinpoint this.
  14. 14
    Exiting via Entrance 2 (SW) and heading east leads to a valley with a small pool, then further east to another pool at a cliff base with a waterfall. Here, find cases with supplies, clothes, and two more cases underwater.
  15. 15
    East of Entrance 2 (SW), south of a small pool, find two sleeping bags with an Old Pot in the campfire between them.
  16. 16
    The first part of the cave contains supplies like Hairspray, another piece of TIMMY'S TOY, and Passenger tags (4A, 7A, 7B, 8C (13/43)), along with cash and watches.
  17. 17
    At the north end, a wall of planks with crucifixes hides another cave. Bash the planks to enter. Find cloth, two hanging skulls, and in the back, a TORCH, batteries, flares, and clothes.
  18. 18
    The Torch is a useful item that can be combined with certain two-handed weapons (Chainsaw, Flintlock Pistol, Bows) for simultaneous use. It respawns and can be upgraded.
  19. 19
    The other hanging skull is over a rope leading down. After another rope, you'll be in a watery cave containing the REBREATHER and two air canisters.
  20. 20
    The Rebreather is essential for flooded caves. Equip it and click an air canister to refill. It has an infinite fuel torch that activates underwater.
  21. 21
    Jump into the water.
Tips
  • The Torch is very useful early on, especially when combined with weapons like the Bows for combat or hunting.
  • Torches respawn, so you can afford to use one for upgrades and find another.
  • When attaching a Torch to a weapon, it's consumed and cannot have its batteries recharged directly. Disassemble the weapon to retrieve it.
  • The Rebreather is crucial for navigating many flooded caves. Ensure you have enough air before diving.
