Obsidian's Grounded With Release Date and Secret Feature
We have finally learned the release date of version 1.0 of the survival game Grounded. Before it comes out, however, fans are in for an update that will bring a secret feature.
According to a recent announcement, after more than two years in early access, the survival game Grounded will finally leave the closed backyard, meaning version 1.0 will launch on PC, XOne and XSX/S (it's also available on the PC/Xbox Game Pass service). This will happen in about two months, specifically on September 27, 2022.
Latest patch
The information in question was revealed a few hours ago by the director of Grounded, Adam Brennecke, in a short video posted on Twitter. At the same time, he assured fans that later today the game's public test server will receive the latest update, created with early access in mind.
It will introduce several improvements and new features, which the studio Obsidian Entertainment wants to test before the title's official release, including an improved version of the weapon and armor upgrade system or a previously unavailable kitchen building.
Secret novelty on the way
What's more, the final version of this patch - described by the developer as "the biggest in the game's history" - will include an additional secret element, described as a "home stretch". Brennecke did not reveal what it's about - he only mentioned that the introduction of this feature is to prepare the Grounded for the release of version 1.0.
Grounded TV
Finally, let me remind you of the information announced last week - namely, that there will be aTV series based on Grounded. For now, we don't know much about it - only that it will expand the plot background of the game.
The script is to be written by Brent Friedman (whose credits include Star Wars: The Clone Wars, four episodes each in Season 4, 5 and 7), and Brien Goodrich (director of cutscenes from games such as Halo 4 and Halo 5: Guardians).
