| These are just educated guesses based on the first game's mechanics. What other status effects do you think would be cool to see in a potential Grounded 2?
| |
Status effects are making a return in Grounded 2 and are likely to be even more diverse. These effects are temporary buffs and debuffs that alter your character's damage output, resistances, speed, or other crucial stats. They can originate from both enemies and the environment. Understanding and managing these effects will be critical for survival in the larger and more perilous backyard, especially during combat and exploration. We can certainly expect new and unexpected status effects to accompany the new creatures and biomes.
Given that there's no official information about Grounded 2, it's tough to say for sure which status effects from the first game will make it into a potential sequel. However, here's a table of status effects from Grounded 1 that were pretty core to the gameplay experience, so there's a good chance they'd carry over.
