The method for joining multiplayer online games in Grounded is different depending on if you are on PC or Xbox. For PC players, open up your Friend List and join your friends directly from their names. For Xbox players, pull up your friend list, click their name, and join the game. Doing this will allow you to enter your friend’s online games to play together in the game server.

You can also join an online game through the game menu. Select the Multiplayer option and then Join Online Game. This method is the most straightforward, and Obsidian Entertainment will likely add an easier way to join the online game. It’s good to see the game has multiplayer options at all in the early access phase.
