Grounded: The Shroom & Doom Update Announced, Coming June 30th

Currently, it is for certain that developer Obsidian Entertainment is occupied with the development for the upcoming, open-world RPG Avowed. However, the game studio is also keeping their hands tied with Grounded as well. Entering Xbox Preview last July, Grounded has faced countless updates and additions since.

However, Obsidian Entertainment when given the chance to speak at the Xbox-Bethesda E3 Showcase on Sunday unveiled the new Shroom & Doom Update for the game. You can watch the reveal trailer in the video below:

“The Grounded team is dropping the biggest content update ever. Building is getting expanded with more materials and the ability to make mushroom structures. Want to transform your base into an awesome castle made of mushroom bricks? Grounded’s got you. Plus, for fans that have been wondering whether we were going to add bosses, they won’t have to wonder anymore. The fearsome Broodmother has found her way to the backyard! She is not for the faint of heart, so for those who may need it, remember that there is an Arachnophobia Mode.

“As Grounded is still in Game Preview/Early Access, the team at Obsidian listens to the Grounded community and is adding in a host of highly requested community features. From the ability to sit in chairs to having their own aphid pets – our community has asked for it and we are giving it to them,” Feargus Urquhart, Studio Head of Obsidian Entertainment explains.

“Plus, the team has added in achievements, so players are also now able to add to their gamer score while playing Grounded. These are just a very small number of all the things that are coming to Grounded on June 30. It’s been an amazing year since Grounded first came out, and we are having as much fun continuing to add cool things as the millions of people who have already joined us in the backyard.”

Elsewhere during the Xbox-Bethesda E3 Showcase, Obsidian Entertainment announced the highly-anticipated sequel, The Outer Worlds 2. The game was given an announcement trailer with listings for Xbox Series X|S & PC. You can read the full report by heading here.
