While there is an option in the difficulty selection menu that says “custom,” it is not available yet.Grounded 2is currently in early access, so the developers will continue to release patches and add content in order to perfect it before its full launch.

Similarly, when players pick a preset difficulty, many of the settings will appear as toggleable, but the button will not move when players attempt to click it. This is because that would turn the preset into a custom difficulty, which is not available yet. In the future, players will be able to fully customize theirGrounded 2experience.

Which Difficulty Should You Choose in Grounded 2?

Since custom difficulties aren’t available yet inGrounded2, it is more important than ever for players to select the right preset option for themselves when creating a save file.

Survival Mode

Survival Mode is the standardGroundedexperience, where players will have to fight for their lives against hostile bugs and manage their resources in order to satisfy their Hunger and Thirst. There are three Survival difficulties: Mild, Medium, and Whoa!

Creative Mode

If players would rather relax and explore the world, Creative mode will give them a peaceful experience without having to worry about hostile enemies and maintaining their character’s Hunger and Thirst meters. They can avoid bugs altogether by selecting the standard Creative experience and simply using it to wander around the world and build bases. However, if they want to make the place a bit more lively, they should select Creative with Bugs, especially considering that bugs will not be hostile towards the player in this game mode.

Ultimately, players' choice when it comes to choosing a difficulty inGrounded 2is entirely up to them, as it will greatly depend on the type of experience that they’re looking for. Once custom difficulty becomes available, it’ll be much easier for gamers to create their own tailored experience.
