The update, which will introduce the first boss of the game Yes improvements in construction mechanics, is part of the change of Obsidian entertainment, which went from frequent small updates to occasional Grounded updates with more content.
Obsidian launched Grounded in Early Access in July 2020, with a full release slated for a later date. During its early access state, Obsidian provided fixes and new content, including updating the koi pond and the addition of bees and mosquitoes.

during Extensive Xbox game showcase, the game director, Adam brennecke, and the community manager, Aarik Dorobiala, they talked at length about the update. Brennecke explained that mushrooms will play a fundamental role in building structures, as players will now be able to collect mushrooms of any size, which will become “Mushroom stuff” which will need to be crushed and baked to create mushroom bricks. These mushroom bricks can be used for build more fortified structures in Grounded, with the possibility of building castles and other fortresses.
The Shroom and Doom update will introduce the first Grounded boss: the Brood Mother, an imposing spider which players will have to defeat using your most powerful team. Brennecke explained that the brood mother was originally included in Grounded at the time of launch, but the team felt it was not “Reach the point”, so it has been removed and adjusted to present a more appropriate challenge.

While Adam Brennecke and the Obsidian team continue to add significant changes to Grounded like those found in the Shroom and Doom update, gamers should have a lot to look forward to when the game is fully released.
