In what appears to be a week of milestones, the Grounded team celebrate their own personal achievement of 10 million players. The game has truly blossomed into something very special during Game Preview/Early Access. Receiving ongoing content releases, bug fixes and general polish, the team thanked everyone who has played and helped establish where the experience stands today. The full release of Grounded is expected to be later sometime this year. While the team is working on getting to that full release, they still have some updates to fill out the current state of the backyard. The most recent one, update 0.12, is a doozy with plenty of new areas for adventurers to explore and new creatures to encounter. Making their way towards the upper yard, players will first discover that the BBQ has now been knocked over. This creates a dangerous and sizzling path on the way towards the woodpile, so players should be prepared to face the heat. Grounded is available on Xbox Game Pass for Console and PC.
