How to Fix Error Problems – Sons of the Forest | Cannot Buy Game
Is there a fix allowing you to purchase Sons of the Forest?
After many years of anticipation and a lot of delays, Sons of the Forest has finally been released. Needless to say, many have anxiously awaited the game’s release.
With this in mind, it is understandable that some have become very frustrated when they are unable to purchase the game due to an error.
As people attempt to purchase the game on Steam, they were met with issues that prevented them from buying it. Luckily, there’s an easy fix for that. Let’s find out how.
How to Fix the Error
When you attempt to purchase the game, a few different errors will occur. Sometimes, the game gets stuck in the cart.
It would seem that Steam is overloaded, as the window that validates the card info and purchase won’t pop up. This means you can’t buy the game.
Another error is the purchase being stuck in pending. At this point, Steam is incapable of facilitating it but will continue to try going with the purchase.
As of now, the fix is to leave your purchase pending. Hopefully, Steam will collect and validate the purchase when it can, and you will receive the game afterward.
Unfortunately, if this does not work, you’ll just have to wait until Steam fixes the issue.
You can try opening a support ticket with Steam, though that system may also be overloaded. If none of these fixes work, the only real option is to be patient.
