Keen Games has announced the 1.0 launch date for Enshrouded. The game will release for Windows PCs, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 5 Pro on October 15, 2026. The Xbox X|S edition remains in development and is planned for spring 2027. Enshrouded entered Early Access on Steam in January 2024 and has welcomed over 5 million players to date.
“Our team worked tirelessly to launch Enshrouded 1.0 and its exciting new content simultaneously across PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, and Xbox Series X|S. Enshrouded combines large-scale voxel building, fully terraformable worlds, advanced multiplayer systems, and a vast open world in ways that are technically very demanding. As we approached launch, we decided that achieving the level of quality and performance we expect on Xbox would require additional time,” said Jan Jöckel, CEO of Keen Games, in a press release.
“We never want to rush a platform release or compromise on quality. Development of the Xbox version is progressing steadily, and we’re planning to bring Enshrouded to Xbox players in spring 2027. Players can look forward to learning much more about Enshrouded 1.0 this summer.”
Initially revealed back on May 3, 2023, Enshrouded has undergone incredible development and systemic updates since its EA launch in January 2024. Since then, eight major content updates have been released, added three new biomes and their accompanying monsters to the game, along with new weapons, armors, creatures, base materials, decorations, and much, much more. Keen Games chose to add dynamic water into the game, no mean feat for a voxel-based adventure game.
Players have built architectural wonders, from recreating famous castles to building more esoteric structures, such as giant toilets, and decorated their bases with weapon racks, feast tables, cuddly animals, and a wealth of other decorations. Since Day 1, Keen Games has strived to listen to the Enshrouded fan base via the player feedback platform to understand what they love, dislike, and want to see in the game. This will continue through the 1.0 launch across all platforms and beyond, as Keen Games plans to support the game and add more content for years to come.
Enshrouded is a game of survival, action RPG combat, building, and crafting, set within a sprawling voxel-based continent called Embervale. You are Flameborn, the last ember of hope for a dying race. Venture into a vast world, vanquish punishing bosses, build grand halls, and forge your path in this co-op survival action RPG. Endure the corrupting fog that plagues the land to seek rare treasures and frightening creatures within it, and to reclaim your kingdom’s lost beauty and history. Beneath the ruins and within the Shroud lies a story of magic, ruin, and redemption. Awaken the ancient Flame and reclaim the hope that once illuminated this fallen world.
