Enshrouded, the open-world survival and base-building game by Keen Games, released to Early Access on Steam in January 2024, and now, more than two years after the Early Access release, Keen Games has announced its full 1.0 launch date. As per the announcement on Steam, Enshrouded 1.0 will launch on October 15, 2026 for both PC via Steam and on Sony's PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro. At its height, Enshrouded managed to attract as many as 160,405 concurrent players on Steam, and the expansion to PS5 is expected to grow its player count. The developer has yet to announce a firm launch date for an Xbox version, but has confirmed that an Xbox launch is planned for spring 2027.

The developer has not yet made any grand promises of content for the official 1.0 release date, but the announcement is accompanied by a release date trailer that hints at some of the updates, and the developer has promised news about "improvements, optimization, QoL changes," and new content ahead of the October launch. Some eagle-eyed users on the r/Enshrouded subreddit have noted that there appears to be a new floating island biome and improvements to the overall lighting and aesthetics. The full announcement and the release date announcement teaser follow.
