Enshrouded PS5 and PS5 Pro launched with 1.0 on 2026-10-15 at 39.99 dollars. Here is what the console build includes, its features and the crossplay truth.
Enshrouded PS5 Guide: Price, Performance and Console Features
Enshrouded on PS5 launched on October 15, 2026, the same day as the PC 1.0 release, and PS5 Pro is supported alongside the base console. The PlayStation version is listed at the same 39.99 dollar tier as PC, discounted to 35.99 dollars during launch week. Console players get the complete 1.0 game, including the new Cinder's Cradle region, but not crossplay with PC.
Fast facts:
- Platforms: PS5 and PS5 Pro, released 2026-10-15.
- Price: 39.99 dollars standard, 35.99 dollars during the launch discount.
- Build: the same full 1.0 release as PC, no cut content.
- Crossplay: not supported. PS5 and PC cannot share a world.
- Xbox: Series X and S are planned for spring 2027.
Which PlayStation Consoles Are Supported
Two consoles are supported: the standard PlayStation 5 and the PlayStation 5 Pro. There is no separate PS4 version, and none is announced. This is a current-generation-only release, which fits a game built on a voxel world with destructible terrain and a large handcrafted map.
Both consoles received the full 1.0 build on day one rather than a delayed port. That matters because Enshrouded spent its entire Early Access period on PC, and a simultaneous console launch is a stronger commitment than a port that trails months behind. Console players are not getting an older snapshot of the game; they are getting the same version, including the 1.0 balance pass, the new spells, and the raised level cap.
Xbox Series X and S owners are the ones left waiting. Keen Games has pointed to spring 2027 for that release, so there is no Xbox version to consider yet.
PS5 Price and What the 1.0 Build Includes
The PlayStation Store listing puts Enshrouded at the same price point as the PC release, with the same launch discount applied. Prices vary by region, so check the live listing rather than a forum screenshot.
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Standard price | 39.99 dollars |
| Launch discount | 10 percent off, 35.99 dollars |
| Version included | Full 1.0 release |
| Region pricing | Varies by PlayStation Store region |
What you get for that price is the complete game, not an Early Access slice. The 1.0 build adds the northern Cinder's Cradle region, two new Hollow Halls, nine new spells with eternal variants, a new summoning category, over thirty new enemy types, the Sparkworks logic system, and a player level cap of 50 with gear upgradeable to 55. The story is finished in this version.

For the PC side of that comparison, the Steam store page lists the same tier, and post-launch notes appear on the official Enshrouded news page. For a side-by-side of console and PC pricing, plus the hotfix timeline since launch, the release date and price page collects it in one place.
PS5 Pro Support
PS5 Pro is officially listed as a supported platform, and PS5 Pro owners install the same game as standard PS5 owners. Keen Games has not published a detailed breakdown of Pro-specific enhancements, so there is no official confirmation of modes like a dedicated high frame-rate option or a resolution target that only the Pro reaches.
What is fair to say is that the 1.0 engine work benefits consoles generally rather than being tied to one machine. The release cut memory usage, dramatically shortened the shader compilation that happens after updates or driver installs, and reworked point-light shadows so that large, heavily lit player bases cost less performance. Those are the kinds of improvements that help any fixed-hardware platform hold a steadier frame rate. On the Pro, the extra headroom is a bonus rather than a documented feature set, and any specific frame-rate numbers you see online should be treated as community testing until the studio publishes its own.
Controller and Accessibility Features
Enshrouded supports full controller play, and the storefront lists specific comfort and accessibility tags alongside it. These are worth checking because survival games often ship with poor gamepad support, and this one did not.
Confirmed features include:
- Full controller support, with DualSense controller support listed on the store.
- Adjustable text size, which matters for the reading-heavy lore and inventory screens.
- Camera comfort options, including adjustable camera inertia for players prone to motion sickness.
- Adjustable difficulty, so combat and survival pressure can be tuned.
- Custom volume controls and stereo sound options.
- Color alternatives for players who need higher contrast.
Version 1.0 added more of these controls directly. HDR is now supported with an in-game calibration screen if your TV handles it, camera inertia is adjustable to reduce motion discomfort, and both HUD element visibility and the intensity of the low-health vignette can be configured. Those settings make the game noticeably easier to play across different rooms and TVs.
One 1.0 change that console players will feel: control responsiveness improved, and the developer specifically cited controller and lower-end hardware improvements in the patch notes. The camera also received many small tweaks aimed at making it less noticeable in motion.
Crossplay Status for Console Owners
This is the part that matters most to anyone buying on PlayStation to play with friends, so it needs a direct answer. Enshrouded does not support crossplay at 1.0. A PS5 player cannot join a PC player's world, and a PC player cannot join a PS5 world.
The launch FAQ is explicit: the game is not cross-platform at launch, and the studio is working on bringing cross-platform play with no current estimate for when it will arrive. A PlayStation co-op tag on the store means you can play with other PlayStation players, not with PC friends.
If your group is split between platforms, read the full crossplay and multiplayer breakdown before anyone buys. It also covers the 16-player world cap, the difference between hosted co-op and dedicated servers, and how permissions work.
Before buying on PS5 to play with friends, confirm everyone is on PlayStation. Crossplay is not available, and the store listing's online co-op tag does not change that.
What Xbox Owners Should Expect in 2027
Xbox Series X and S owners have a date to plan around: spring 2027. That is the window Keen Games has given for the Xbox release, and it means Xbox is currently the only major platform without the game.
Two things follow from that. First, the Xbox version will arrive after the PC and PlayStation builds have had months of patches, so it should ship in a more polished state than a day-one release. Second, whether Xbox will support crossplay with PC or PlayStation is not something the studio has confirmed, and given that crossplay is not even live between the two current platforms, Xbox players should assume they will play within the Xbox ecosystem unless stated otherwise.
For now, PlayStation owners are the only console players who can actually buy the game. If you are on PS5 and want to know whether the purchase is worth it before you commit, the solo and co-op verdict covers who the game suits, and the beginner guide walks through the first hour so you are not lost on arrival.
