Does Grounded 2 have crossplay?
Yes, Grounded 2 supports crossplay between platforms, so you and your friends can survive together across PC and Xbox Series consoles. Initially, the game is not available on any other platforms, but this hasn't been ruled out for the future.
To enable crossplay, you must log into your Microsoft account. After this, you'll be able to invite friends to play with you or join their games.
Grounded 2 cross-platform progression
Since Grounded 2 is on Game Pass, you may also be wondering whether you can access your save data across both PC and Xbox. Thankfully, the answer is yes, Grounded 2 also supports cross-platform progression. For some.
The only way to enable Grounded 2 cross-progression is via Microsoft Remote Play. Unfortunately, this excludes the Steam version of the game, and it must be downloaded via Game Pass or from the Microsoft store. By ensuring you're logged into the same Microsoft account on both your (Microsoft) PC and Xbox versions, you can seamlessly access your save data on either platform.
