The Grounded team has been short since the holidays, but now they're returning with fresh news about the future of Obsidian Entertainment's charming and addictive open-world survival game. Grounded's first update since the December Content Update is coming soon, and the probable additions have been teased by Obsidian for ages. The January Content Update for Grounded is entering the Public Test ring early next week, giving dedicated Grounded players a chance to jump in even before Grounded's early access sees the new features.
it seems that most of you want all three flying insects from yesterday's poll added, so how about we add them and more items AND open up the Public Test Servers again early next week so you can help us test before the official release? sound good?https://t.co/FHc40cADC6 pic.twitter.com/qlgz1mdJ1eit seems that most of you want all three flying insects from yesterday's poll added, so how about we add them and more items AND open up the Public Test Servers again early next week so you can help us test before the official release? sound good?https://t.co/FHc40cADC6 pic.twitter.com/qlgz1mdJ1e— Grounded (@GroundedTheGame) January 15, 2021January 15, 2021
As for what the update will include, we already have a good clue. Grounded held a poll on its Twitter that asked participants which of three flying insects they'd like to see added to Grounded, with a fourth option for "All of the above!" Of course, Grounded players arrived in troves to request all three flying insects, and Obsidian Entertainment is obliging them.
Bees, mosquitos, and fireflies should all make an appearance in the next Grounded update, adding tons of new features and mechanics for players to watch out for. There should also be plenty of other tweaks, improvements, and other additions. We'll have to wait to see those, though.
Grounded is already a fantastic game in its early state, but those looking for something a little more complete should check our list of Best Survival Games for Xbox.
It's a big(ger) world out there.
