Potential fixes for Grounded 2 Multiplayer not working error
The multiplayer segment of Grounded 2 not working largely indicates that there is some form of network issue on either your end or on the server side. If it's the former, here are some solutions you can try and implement to bypass it.
1) Check your internet connection
As simple as it seems, having proper high-speed internet connectivity is the first step to ensure that you can access the multiplayer segment of Grounded 2. If you have slow internet service or are suffering from packet loss issues, this could potentially cause the Grounded 2 Multiplayer not working error in-game.
To fix these problems, contact your internet service provider and ensure that everything related to your internet connection is running properly.

2) Opting for an Ethernet connection
If you're using wi-fi to play multiplayer games, you are setting yourself up for failure. Wireless internet connections cause a plethora of network issues, and we wouldn't be surprised if this were the core problem preventing you from accessing the game's multiplayer mode.
To fix this, simply get an Ethernet or LAN cable and connect it from your router to your computer or console. Once done, you will be able to enjoy seamless internet connectivity without any interruptions.
3) Connect your account to Xbox
If you want to play Grounded 2 Multiplayer, you must have your game connected to an Xbox Gaming account. In case you're accessing the game from Steam and have not authorised your Xbox account in-game, you will be barred from accessing the multiplayer functions within the title.
The easiest way to fix this is to simply connect both platforms and then gain access to all the multiplayer features in-game.
Upon following these steps, you should be able to successfully fix the Grounded 2 Multiplayer not working error. In case these fixes do not work, we suggest you contact the official support channel for the title.
