Sundered Grove

The Sundered Grove is a dense, floral, jungle stage located on Petrichor V, and is a part of the fourth set of Environments in Risk of Rain 2.

This stage was initially a timed exclusive for Stadia, the Google game streaming platform. It was added to the PC version on November 3, 2020.

''Explore the new Sundered Grove, where ancient flora has risen up to reclaim this once sacred refuge. Mazes of roots and overgrown fungus have twisted the landscape, leaving only ruins. Battle through the lofty canopy to the deep underground. Sundered Grove will accompany Abyssal Depths and Siren’s Call as an alternate fourth stage where survivors will search the entangled area for the legendary chest.''

Legendary Chest
A Legendary Chest will spawn at one of its five possible locations around the stage. Follow the small pink glowing mushrooms to find it.

Newt Altars
The Newt Altars can spawn at several locations on Sundered Grove:
 * 1) High on the big tree at the center of the environment, only accessible via twisting roots wrapped around it.
 * 2) Inside an empty piece of the fallen tree near the center of the environment.
 * 3) In the underground layer of the stage, on a twisted root above the void.
