What you need to know
Still haven’t had enough of Grounded? We don’t blame you, and apparently Obsidian Entertainment is here to deliver. Not even two weeks after the release of Grounded’s first major content update since launch is a new patch bringing even more content, bug fixes, and general improvements to players.
Grounded’s1.2.2 patch updatemay fall under an unassuming version number, but don’t let that fool you. While it is smaller in size than theGrounded 1.2 Super Duper updatethat rolled out to players a little over a week ago, there’s still some very exciting new features and content included in this surprise update.
Although, if you’re not a fan of spiders, you may want to avoid this one or make liberal use ofGrounded’s Arachnophobia Mode. Here’s a quick overview of what’s included in the latestGroundedupdate.

I don’t think anyone was begging for fresh Grounded content right after the release of the Super Duper update, but it’s awesome to see the game enjoy healthy post-launch support. The Grounded 1.2.2 patch update is now available for players across all platforms.
If you haven’t played Grounded, yet, now’s the best time to joinover 15 million playersin what is absolutely one of thebest Xbox gamesand generally one of the greatest survival games you can play right now. In myGrounded review, I dubbed it a “stunning survival triumph teeming with secrets, stories, and surprises,” and the game has added plenty more content since then.
Grounded is available now on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One consoles, Windows PC (Microsoft Store and Steam), and Steam Deck for $40. It’s also onXbox Game PassandXbox Cloud Gaming.
