Grounded 2 Early Access: TL;DR

After diving 34 hours into Grounded 2, Jean-Luc praises the new map extensions (hello, Brookhollow Park and that delightfully weird ice cream cart), plus rideable buggies that add a fresh spin on exploration. Crafting and base-building feel more polished, and combat now leans into distinct class roles that keep fights engaging.

That said, it’s still Early Access—buggy crashes and odd physics pops are a regular reminder that polish is coming later. Overall, it’s more of what you loved in the first game with a few neat additions, but no radical overhauls…yet.
