Grounded's latest update, patch 0.3.1, went live yesterday. The update is available for both Xbox One and PC. No new content has been added in 0.3.1, however, it does bring several bug fixes.
The update addressed the crash issues that occurred when players were placing buildings like Walls and Foundations. Friend search is also drastically improved. The art of the Hedge area is polished and web sacs will now wiggle when they are hit. Orb Weaver loot doesn’t have Venom in it anymore, and screen effects will not be stuck anymore.
You can read the entire patch notes below and on the official site. Keep in mind that Grounded is currently in Early Access, which means that it will receive a plethora of patches before getting a proper release.
