After being teased in April, the ‘Thralls of Twilight’ content update for Enshrouded has finally arrived, and it’s full of more dangers, new weapon upgrade mechanics, improved visuals, and increased player customization.
This marks Enshrouded’s sixth content update during its early access period. The Shroud itself is getting visual enhancements, and players are now encouraged to stay up “past dark to find all-new resources, loot, rewards, and unlock new modification mechanics.” Of course, this means new enemies as well as creature variations will be roaming around.
So far, Keen Games has been delivering on its 2025 roadmap, developing Enshrouded toward its 2026 1.0 launch on PC and consoles. As it stands, we think it’s one of the most exciting in-dev titles in the sandbox survival space, and we’re happy to see it flourish in both expected and surprising ways.
If you’re thinking of finally jumping into the game, you can find the packed ‘Thralls of Twilight’ trailer below:
Enshrouded Update #6 v.0.8.1.0 features
Enshrouded’s sixth content update is out now, and you can find all the details on the latest Steam news post, but here we’ve collected the biggest new features that have arrived to the game:
-
Dazzling incentives to stay up past bedtime and enter The Shroud: new gameplay elements to encourage you to explore the riskier sides of Embervale.
-
New creepy, crawly enemies like the Predator. Flying Jelly. Critter Queen. Basically, if it moves, it can kill you.
-
Armor sets for day and night wear. New vanity outfits and armor sets can be found, including one themed for “day” and one for “night.”
-
A new point of interest in the Shroud: the Shroud Lairs, distinctly identifiable, where new enemies guard resources and treasures
-
Shroud Forges are also nestled in the Shroud and are used for upgrading, adding, and removing Weapon Gems. Will you collect all 21?
-
Players can tint their armor at the Coloring Station. Nothing says “capable survivor” like a fashion show.
-
Day or night, get a new ‘do and hue with new color options for hair and eyes, available from the new Barber in your village.
-
Added options/variations for combat, enemies, and NPCs, plants - very conveniently acquirable with the auto-gathering ability.
-
Looks can be deceiving: significant visual upgrade to The Shroud itself.
-
The first-ever fan-chosen quest, The Dragons’ Last Breath, can be unlocked by exploring the remains of dragons resting in the Albaneve Mountains.
