How to unlock and upgrade your Omni-Tool in Grounded 2

You’ll first unlock your Omni-Tool after finding Ranger Outpost: Snackbar during the main story. Inside this base, you’ll find a Resource Analyzer and a wall of Omni-Tools, letting you grab one to use for the rest of your run.

You’ll also find a locked door on the opposite side of this room. There’s no way to unlock this door from this side, requiring you to advance slightly further into the main questline. You’ll eventually find a cave that leads directly to this backroom and lets you unlock the door, giving you easier access to both areas.

Grounded 2 Ranger Station

Once you enter this room, you’ll find a Ranger Station that features a Science Shop, Omni-Tool upgrades, and Ranger Challenges. Early in your playthrough, you’ll have limited upgrade options, but uncovering more resources will let you expand further.

The Omni-Tool has four components: axe, hammer, wrench, and shovel upgrades. Each has between three and five tiers of varying complexity, with Science Points being a major component. Here’s a complete list of every upgrade and its required materials.
