First Disk: Snack Bar Front

Start looking near the front of the snack bar. Find the Toxic Anthill South Entrance area on your map.

Just locate the picnic table and head straight south from its corner to find this spot. A large, conspicuous green building marks the entrance.

Expect a vast subterranean network once you enter the Toxic Anthilles. Pay close attention to these instructions because the area is quite large.

Once inside, turn left and continue until you come to a section that appears to be poisonous. To find a path that takes you further into the Anthill, turn right from here in Grounded 2.

Proceed by descending to a cockroach-infested area. Avoid interacting with these creatures as you pass them.

After that, you'll pass through an unsettling area where cockroach nymphs are present. Proceed through this section until you come to a room where you can gather 500 Raw Signs.

From the signs room, proceed to the adjacent chamber where you'll encounter the Queen Cockroach boss.

You have two options: fight this boss or stay away from it completely. This boss room's back right corner is where you'll find the missing optical disk in Grounded 2.

You can leave the Anthill and move on to the following location after you've retrieved the disk.

Second Disk: Pine Hill Area

To access the second disk, you have to travel to the Pine Hill area. A familiar rocket-shaped landmark in the region indicates the Spider Den Anthill North Entrance.

Since this disk is perched on a ledge, you can reach the higher area by going through the bushes and following the path on the left.

Go west from the entrance until you find a hole in the ground. Turn right as soon as you enter this opening.

Continue straight for a considerable distance until you reach a point where you must turn right again.

Proceed forward until you can turn left into another section of the underground area.

When you enter this new section, look for science equipment and signs in Grounded 2.

Turn around and go directly across to the other side of the area as soon as you see these markers. The Missing Optical Disk is situated directly in front of the corpse, which is located close to the wall.

Third Disk: Ice Cream Cart

Due to its location in the Ice Cream Cart area, where extreme cold is a constant threat, the final disk poses the biggest challenge.

If you wish to survive the freezing temperatures, you have a few choices. Hunting bees, which are frequently seen on particular rocks throughout the day, is the suggested method for creating Fuzzy Gear.

As an alternative, you can gather Spicy Shards and eat them frequently to keep your body temperature constant. By adding these items, you can quickly access them whenever you feel like freezing to your hotbar.

Another survival strategy involves bringing numerous healing items and medical supplies to counteract the cold damage through constant healing.

Once you've prepared for the cold, head to the Ice Cream Cart and climb up into the structure itself in Grounded 2.

A huge Ice Cream Cart with a noticeable Ice Cream Cone will be in front of you. It's easier to ascend through the main structure, but you can enter through the cone.

You will have to choose between the left and right paths inside the cart. The Optical Disk requires you to take the right path, while the left path leads to the top of the cart, where more items are waiting.

As you navigate, eat your warming items when you get cold because the cold makes it much harder to move.

Jump onto the first Ice Cream Cone, then leap to the adjacent one.

Near this second cone, you'll discover another dead body with the final Missing Optical Disk positioned directly in front of it. This completes your collection of all three Disks in Grounded 2.
