By How are you finding Obsidian’s new sequel?
Obsidian is having some year, eh? After the release of Avowed back in February, the team has now delivered Grounded 2 here on Xbox Game Pass – before its sci-fi sequel The Outer Worlds 2 then lands in October. So, what do you make of the studio’s second major release of 2025 so far?
Of course, Grounded 2 is only in its early access form right now, but the first game launched in exactly the same way and was a pretty compelling experience from day one. Are you finding the sequel to be similarly entertaining? Are the game’s new rideable ‘Buggies’ providing just as much fun as you expected?
We’ve not had much chance to dip into this one just yet (staff holidays have made it a busy few weeks over here), but reading up on some reviews and early impressions recently has certainly piqued our interest. Now we just need to decide whether to dive in or wait for the full 1.0 launch!
What about you though… have you been playing some Grounded 2 since its arrival on Xbox Game Pass last week? If so, what do you think of Obsidian’s second backyard survival sim to hit Xbox in recent times? Come give us an early score in the poll below and discuss further in the comments.
