In
Grounded 2, the developers have streamlined the resource gathering and combat process with the introduction of the
Omni-Tool. This versatile, all-in-one tool eliminates the need to carry separate axes, hammers, shovels, and wrenches. By combining these functions into a single item, the Omni-Tool simplifies inventory management and provides a clear progression path through its upgrade system.This guide will detail how to unlock the Omni-Tool and provide a comprehensive list of all its upgrades and their required materials.
Grounded 2: unlock and upgrade your Omni-Tool
The Omni-Tool is a key item you will acquire early in the main story.
Find Ranger Outpost: Snackbar: As you progress through the main quest, you will discover the Ranger Outpost: Snackbar.Claim Your Omni-Tool: Inside this outpost, you will find a Resource Analyzer and a wall of Omni-Tools. You can grab one to use for the rest of your playthrough.Access the Upgrade Station: On the opposite side of the room is a locked door. You can't open it from the inside, but you will eventually find a nearby cave that leads to this backroom. Unlocking the door from the other side will give you easy access to the Ranger Station, which features a Science Shop, the Omni-Tool upgrades station, and Ranger Challenges.Once you have access to the upgrade station, you can begin to unlock and improve the four different tool functions of the Omni-Tool.
All Omni-Tool Upgrades in Grounded 2
Each tool function—axe, hammer, shovel, and wrench—has multiple tiers of upgrades. Unlocking higher tiers allows you to break stronger materials and access new resources. Below is a complete list of the upgrades and their known requirements.
