What’s particularly promising from Microsoft’s point of view is just how well its acquisition of Obsidian Entertainment is paying off.

Since it became part of the Xbox first-party family in 2018, Obsidian has released an excellent story-focused RPG in Outer Worlds, released this charming, humorous survival/ crafting/ base-building game in early access, and has a blockbuster RPG true to Obsidian’s roots in Avowed in the pipeline.

Though Outer Worlds and Avowed are similar, Grounded showed that Obsidian doesn’t have to just make RPGs.

It’s successfully pushed the boat out into the survival/ base-building realm and shown Obsidian’s potential to release an eclectic mix of AA/AAA titles for Microsoft’s platforms moving forward.
