[Video] Enshrouded Leaves Early Access as Version 1.0 Launches October 15 on PC and PS5
Enshrouded, the co-op survival action RPG from Frankfurt, Germany-based Keen Games, left Early Access and launched as version 1.0 on October 15, 2026. In its official Steam news posts, Keen Games confirmed a single global unlock at 8:00 a.m. PDT (15:00 UTC) on October 15, with the full release arriving on PC via Steam and making its console debut on PlayStation 5 and PS5 Pro the same day. The game is priced at $39.99, with a 10 percent launch discount during the first 14 days.
Enshrouded first entered Steam Early Access on January 24, 2024. According to Keen Games, more than 5.5 million players have joined the game since then, through eight major updates. Version 1.0 completes the Embervale world map with a new northern region, Cinder's Cradle, a lava wasteland below and floating islands above, and brings the current storyline to its conclusion. The level cap rises to 50 and the gear cap to 55, nine new spell types are added, and full voice acting is included in English, German and Chinese.
The release also adds Sparkworks, a logic system that lets players wire switches, traps and puzzles into shareable custom adventures, along with Adventure Sharing, which lets players visit shared bases and dungeons through share codes. Co-op supports up to 16 players on PC and 8 on PS5, and cross-platform play is not available at launch, with Keen Games saying it is planned for a later update. PC owners of the Early Access version do not need to buy the game again, and existing saves carry over in a converted format. The Xbox Series X|S version remains in development and is planned for spring 2027, with CEO Jan Jöckel saying the team needs additional time to meet its performance expectations on that hardware. Keen Games said it will keep supporting the game with free and paid content after 1.0.
