Grounded, the next Xbox-published game coming to Switch, is now confirmed for physical release. As was the case with Pentiment, Limited Run Games is handling distribution.
Grounded will have a standard version and collector’s edition. With the latter, in addition to a copy of the game, you’ll get a special box, 4×6 frame that includes ten swappable art cards, a USB cassette tape soundtrack, a CD soundtrack, dice set, stickers, art book, Mant minitures, and Hopes sweatbands.
Grounded will first be hitting Switch as an eShop download on April 16. Read about the title below.
The world is a vast, beautiful, and dangerous place – especially when you have been shrunk to the size of an ant. Explore, build and survive together in this first-person, multiplayer, survival adventure. Can you thrive alongside the hordes of giant insects, fighting to survive the perils of the backyard?
How did you wind up so small? Who did this to you? How do you go home? These are all answers you will uncover as you play through the story.
You can face the backyard alone or together, online, with up to three friends. Not only that, but with the Shared Worlds feature, you can continue to play in your shared world even if the original host is not on, with all your progression saving!
Creatures can be found roaming the yard in a multitude of environments, such as the depths of the pond, the caverns of the termite den, and even the sweltering heat found in the sandbox. You can even attract them to different places in the yard by activating the MIX.R devices. However, the more you interfere with the creatures in the yard, the higher the chance that they come knocking at your own door, so you better prepare.
Play true to your playstyle!Use the in-game customization systems such as Mutations and Milk Molars to activate the bonuses and perks you want for your character. Not only that, but craft and upgrade your armor and weapons to give your character the stats and advantages you need in order to take on the perils of the backyard.
Pre-orders for the Grounded Switch physical release open on March 25, 2024. Limited Run Games will be taking reservations here.
