Grounded Patch 1.2.2 Steam/Obsidian

Grounded, the co-op survival game by Obsidian Entertainment, may have left its early access state but that doesn't mean its support has ended. Some might argue that it has ramped up.

The developer revealed the details of the latest update. Patch 1.2.2 brought brand-new content, bug fixes, and general improvements. Full Broodmother Equipment Set has been added along with an additional effect for Broodmother Mutation. Players can also purchase the May Sign Set from the Science Shop.

Infected Broodmother is the new boss that you can fight against with your friends. The developer also added new equipment and buildings that should make the battle a bit easier. The highlights of the update are mentioned below.
