Grounded 2 Optical Disk Locations: A Version-Aware Checklist
A checklist framework for tracking Optical Disk routes across current Grounded 2 regions, with update notes instead of unverified coordinates.
Track each disk with three fields: landmark, access requirement and verified result. A collectible route is only useful when the return path and quest gate are clear.

Track collectibles as routes
Collectible entries need a landmark, access gate, return path and verified result. The image sets the scene; the row tells you what to do next.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Turbo Optical Disk | Progression item | Early quest route | A named story-linked disk lead; record the quest gate and return route together.Source: PC Gamer location guide | Reference lead | On this page |
Status is deliberately conservative: a reference lead is useful for discovery, but exact stats, drops, costs and coordinates are not upgraded to verified without a current-build check.
Treat disks as progression items
Optical Disk searches are not just collectibles: their region, access requirement, and relationship to a quest determine when the detour is worth taking. Use the map landmark and the current update label before planning a run.
The companion index currently separates named disks across areas such as the greenhouse, pumpkin patch, hedge, ice cream cart, and Sinkhole Anthill. Confirm each entry against the current game before marking it complete.
Use a three-column checklist
Record location, access requirement, and verified result. Add a fourth note for the return route or nearby resource so the collectible run pays for its travel time.
Avoid stale route claims
Into the Abyss changes the map and adds new areas. A route written before the pond opened may still name the right item but the wrong approach. Keep the update and checked date beside every entry.
Use this guide in a run
- 01Name the landmark
Start with the log, sign, root, machine, or raised garden feature a reader can see.
- 02Mark the pressure
Add the local creature, hazard, tool requirement, and safest approach.
- 03Plan the return
A location is useful only when the route home and storage plan are clear.
- 04Date the discovery
Keep the build and map context visible so Early Access changes are easy to audit.
Before you commit to this route
- Save the landmark and the nearest safe return point
- Mark required tools and local creature pressure
- Separate resources, danger, and progression pins
- Date the route so later patches are easy to compare
