Grounded 2

Obsidian shrinks you to the size of an ant again, this time into a park rather than the backyard, and the park is very much larger. Buggies are the new system: insects you hatch, raise and ride, that fight beside you and gather for you. Archetypes give each player distinct abilities, so a co-op group is a set of roles rather than four of the same survivor. The apex predators — AXL the tarantula, the lizard, and the snake you have to learn, ride and harvest scales from — are what the gear tiers are for. Bases run from a shelter to a fortress, and they can be built fully underwater.
