Enabling Crossplay on PlayStation & Nintendo Switch

You can follow the steps below to enable crossplay in Grounded on your Nintendo Switch or PlayStation console.
- Navigate to the Options menu and scroll down until you see "Enable Crossplay," then toggle that On.
- On the next screen, you'll see crossplay sign-in; select "Continue."
- Follow the next page to link your Microsoft/Xbox Account.
- Create a Microsoft account if you don't have one already.

Congratulations! If you see an Xbox Gamer Tag at the top-right corner of your screen now, you are golden.
It is, however, important to note that you must link the correct Microsoft or Xbox account to the game, as you can only have one linked.
Bonus tip:If you are suffering from specific known issues, maybe wait for a fix from the developer and try again. Some users are experiencing issues in Grounded at the launch of version 1.4.
Can't Find Crossplay Settings in Grounded
Some users are complaining that they can't find crossplay settings in Grounded. Specifically, those on PC and Xbox are wondering where the enable crossplay option has gone. Well, that's because those on PC via Steam and Microsoft Store, alongside those on Xbox consoles, do not have crossplay options. It is enabled by default with no way to disable it.
Is a PS Plus or Nintendo Online Sub Required for Grounded MP?
Yes, Grounded players do need a subscription to their platform's specific online service, such as Xbox Live, Nintendo Online, or PlayStation Plus, to enjoy crossplay, Shared Worlds, and Community Playgrounds.
