Enshrouded in 2025 – Is It Worth Playing? (Early Access Review)
82Enshrouded launched into Early Access in early 2024, and like many survival-crafting games, it faced skepticism at first. But after a year and a half of updates, new content, performance improvements, and community feedback, how does Enshrouded actually play in 2025?
In this video, I’ll be diving deep into Enshrouded’s current state. From its massive open-world exploration with a focus on verticality, to the challenging combat, Shroud zones, RPG-style progression, and base building with some surprisingly flexible construction tools. I’ll also cover the crafting system, multiplayer co-op, and explain what still needs a bit more work.
So whether you’ve been following Enshrouded since launch, bounced off after a few hours, or are just curious if this survival RPG is finally worth your time, this Early Access review should give you a good idea of how Enshrouded holds up in late 2025.
