Grounded News Wrap-Up

[Mikey Dowling]

Hi everyone!

Today during the Inside Xbox Showcase during X019 we announced our brand new game, Grounded. A passion game being worked on by a small team hear at Obsidian. The world of Grounded is a vast, beautiful, and dangerous place, especially when you have been shrunken to the size of an ant. Explore, build, and survive together in this first person, multiplayer, survival-rpg. Can you thrive alongside the hordes of giant insects, fighting to endure the hardships of the backyard?

To help give you more information on Grounded, we wanted to share articles that have been written about a game from press who were able to come to the studio and see it prior to the unveiling at X0. This is a game that we're looking forward to building with your input when we come first to the Xbox Insider program and then later to Game Preview and Game Pass early next year.

Now on to the articles!

But that's not all! We just put up our new Grounded website. Over the next few months, make sure to check this site out for blog posts from the team and get insight into how Grounded is going to be built.

 

Congrats to the Grounded team for their big announcement today!

Congrats. Definitely not my type of game but if you guys have fun making it then all the power to you and your shrinkray gun.

I only wonder what Mystario would say to the subtitle of the forum...

Clearly this is a sequel to the bedroom level in South Park.

But I thought the Endless Paths was the sequel.

Can we play this game as solo.

As solo what?
