Obsidian Entertainment tonight introduced an early entry launch date of July 28th for Grounded, their craft-o-survival game about youngsters shrunk down smaller than ants and turned unfastened in a again backyard.

I’m very a lot not okay with that tunnel spider. And now I’ve acquired it into my head that the artifical habitat is a few kind of Wasp Factory. Oh no.
Grounded will hit early entry July 28th on Steam and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, which I’d assume means Game Pass For PC too. If you’d somewhat watch for the completed game, Obsidian have mentioned they count on it’ll be finished in 2021.

They then plan to complete the storyline whereas including in new bugs, biomes, issues to craft, polish, and so forth.
