Obsidian’s Grounded Enters the “Home Stretch” with New Update
Grounded update makes it easier to share worlds with friends
The latest Grounded update makes it easier to share worlds with your friends in the backyard survival game. Now, in addition to the ‘standard worlds’ that have been available since Grounded launched in Game Preview, you can also create ‘shared sorlds’ that are stored in the cloud. These shared worlds, as you might expect, be shared with friends, who will be able to access them whenever they like, even when you’re offline.

Grounded introduces Shared Worlds, making multiplayer much easier
Grounded is the charming survival game that has remained in Early Access for a while now. Although, not for much longer, with the game slated to release on September 27 of this year. In the meantime, Obsidian is not neglecting updates for the game, with the latest change to be introduced involving Shared Worlds.
The adventure itself sees takes Honey, I Shrunk The Kids and turns it into a video game. As a pint-sized version of your former self, you must navigate blades of grass and spar with unfriendly insects to get by. While the game is certainly fun to play solo, it reaches its full potential when played co-operatively with friends.
That said, multiplayer can be relatively troublesome. Previously, co-op required one player – the host – to be online for anyone to play on that chosen world. Every time someone wanted to play, the host would need to be around. Now, obviously not everyone has the same schedules, and this can pose an issue.
Grounded gets a release date along with a final major update
Obsidian Entertainment has set a release date for Grounded, its backyard survival-adventure game.
In June, the studio said the game would see a release in September, and now we know exactly when it will land: September 27.
The game is currently in testing with update 0.14, and those who are flighting the game should know the update is notably lighter than previous releases. It is also the final major update for Game Preview before the 1.0 Release in September.
