This larger-than-life prize doubles as functional gaming furniture, complete with a saddle for seating, making it both a collector’s dream and a conversation starter.
The original Grounded captivated players with its unique premise, shrinking kids to insect size in a backyard filled with towering plants and dangerous creatures. The sequel maintains this core concept but expands the adventure into a sprawling park environment. New features like rideable insects add fresh excitement, letting players traverse the landscape atop giant bugs. The promotional ant plushie mirrors one of these in-game mounts, offering fans a chance to bring the experience into their own homes.
To enter the sweepstakes, participants must engage with official Xbox social media posts. On X (formerly Twitter), reposting a promotional tweet with the hashtag #Grounded2Sweepstakes qualifies as an entry. Instagram users can comment on Xbox’s Grounded 2 posts using the same tag. The winner will take home the colossal ant, officially dubbed “gaming furniture” by Microsoft, a fitting description for such an unconventional prize.
Grounded 2 launches in early access for PC and Xbox Series X/S on July 29, with more details emerging ahead of release. Early reports suggest the game could be part of a planned trilogy, though multiplayer options may be limited at launch. Rumors also hint at potential future releases on Switch 2 and PS5, broadening its reach beyond Xbox platforms. Whether or not players snag the giant ant, the sequel promises another thrilling adventure in a world where danger comes in pint-sized packages.
