It can sometimes seem as though open-world survival games with crafting mechanics are a dime a dozen these days, which can in turn make it very difficult for one of them to make any kind of noticeable impact on the industry. However, with its unique mechanics and fantastic multiplayer functionality, Enshrouded has managed to do exactly that, attracting over one million players in the week or so following its early access launch.

Getting Started in Enshrouded
Players will start the game inside the Cinder Vault, from whence they'll be able to explore pretty much all of Embervale right from the get-go.
