How to fix ground multiplayer not working issue (PC and Xbox)
Here are a few ways to fix the multiplayer not working issue on PC and Xbox in Grounded:
Check the status of Xbox servers
Before using any of the other methods, we suggest that you check if the Xbox servers are down. If they don’t work, there is no other way than to wait for them to fix the problem. While rare, Xbox servers can go down due to service downtime or DDoS attacks. You can go to the Xbox Servers Status page (link) to find out. If the servers are up, we suggest trying our next method.
Make sure your friends are connected
- We suggest that all players who connect to play co-op be your friends on Xbox Live.
- Instead of inviting them into the game, try inviting your friends from the lobby screen. Then launch the game to check if you are connected to your friends.
- Also, make sure your profile is not offline or invisible in order to chat with your friends.
- Finally, check if you and the connected players have the same system clock.
Check your internet connection
Since Grounded is an online multiplayer game, you need a constant and stable connection. So, we suggest checking your internet connection. If you are using a wireless connection and are experiencing technical issues, we recommend that you restart your router. We also recommend using a wired Ethernet instead of a wireless connection for a seamless internet connection.
But if the above methods didn’t solve your problems, go to the official Obsidian support page (link). You can click “Contact Us”and detail your concerns for further assistance.
That’s all for the multiplayer not working issue in Grounded.
