Obsidian Entertainment’s The Outer Worlds 2 is available in October, but the studio has another title coming much sooner. Grounded 2 launches into early access on July 29th for Xbox Series X/S via Game Preview and PC via Steam. Check out the first gameplay below.
The sequel seemingly follows the same teenagers from the first game, who have been shrunken again and must contend against giant-sized versions of insects. These include scorpions, butterflies and the ever-icky spiders with their web shields. Fortunately, you can use ants as mounts and even fight while riding around.
New weapons and gear sets have also been revealed, including an elemental stave that can chill enemies. The environments also look fairly sleek, with what seems to be a park as the latest “map” to explore.
Grounded 2 will also be available on day one for Game Pass. There’s no word yet on whether it will come to PS5, so stay tuned for more details.
