The Grounded team took to their Twitter account and shared a quick video announcing that Grounded’s very first content drop would actually be coming on August 26, 2020, a whole day earlier than originally expected.

Now, this isn’t the biggest news in the world, of course, but it does show that the Obsidian team working on Grounded is well on schedule, and that they’re confident enough to push out the update even earlier than expected, which is awesome to see. It’s also great timing, as many Grounded players are starting to get past the point ofbasic tools and weaponsand are looking for more content to slake their thirst.
We’re not certain what all Grounded’s first content drop will include at this time, but hopefully Grounded gets more missions and objectives for players to complete, which is ultimately where the game falls short at the moment. Perhaps some hints are included in the short teaser video (are those sprig fences we spy?). We’re excited to find out right alongside the rest of you on (now) August 26, 2020.
