The fact that Grounded made it onto the list of third-party titles probably wasn’t much of a surprise given the recent rumors. The game was released for PC and Xbox One in 2020. Nevertheless, the game has a lot to offer. In the survival game, after you have been shrunk, you have to fight together with up to three other players through the now huge world of your front yard all the way to your house. There are numerous dangers lurking in the garden. In addition, you have to build a base and provide food and water. The game can also be played cross-platform.
