Over a year ago, Obsidian Entertainment’s Grounded shaped the new future for Xbox releases – it would be releasing on Nintendo Switch. The game after being an Xbox IP would move onto other platforms alongside Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of Thieves, and Pentiment. The title would also receive a physical release via Limited Run Games as well.
Additionally, that would not be the last you would hear of Grounded. At least, in terms of the original release. That is thanks to the surprising announcement of Grounded 2. Alike the first, it would arrive to Xbox & PC as an Early Access release. However, what differs is the scale, ambition, and confidence in the sequel that was shaped from the work of the original since its debut in 2018.
Now this week, Grounded 2 arrives with its first update – Hairy and Scary. You can watch the new update trailer in the video below:
“Brookhollow Park just got a lot more… hairy. And a lot more scary! Grounded 2’s newest update unleashes AXL, a colossal tarantula with enough legs, fangs, and fur to make even the bravest teens scrambling to fine-tune their loadouts. But don’t worry—you’ll have the tools to fight back, and they’re every bit as fearsome as the towering arachnid they come from,” Obsidian Entertainment senior communications manager Shyla Schofield writes.
“Defeating AXL opens up a whole new frontier of power. You can forge an imposing tarantula armor set, wield the devastating Tarantula Bow and Spear, and even decorate your base with spidery flair. […] This update also makes it easier than ever to turn your park empire into an architectural masterpiece. The streamlined BUILD.M grid system is here to make placing, snapping, and perfecting your creations more intuitive, giving your wildest blueprints a chance to shine.”
