This is far from being well understood, and is atopic of ongoing research, but there are good reasons to think that the Einstein field equations for gravity may actually emerge as some some sort of entropy maximization condition. A point of contact between gravity and entropy is for spacetimes with a horizon, an example being a black hole.
