Setting Up Your Enshrouded Dedicated Server
Hosting an Enshrouded server on a Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a stellar choice for gamers seeking a customized and controlled gaming environment. This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough to set up your Enshrouded server, tailored for those utilizing a VPS provider for an enhanced gaming experience.
Essential Requirements for an Enshrouded Server
To ensure a smooth and efficient Enshrouded server operation, adhere to the following minimum hardware and software specifications:
Hardware Specifications
- Processor (CPU): Minimum 3.2 GHz dual-core.
- Memory (RAM): At least 5 GB.
- Disk Space: Minimum 30 GB available.
Software Requirements
- Operating System: Windows Server 2022 or a compatible Linux distribution.
Step 1: Secure Your VPS and Establish a Connection
1. Choose a reputable VPS provider and select a plan that meets the minimum requirements for hosting an Enshrouded server.
2. Once your VPS is ready, connect to it using SSH (for Linux servers) or Remote Desktop (for Windows servers).
ssh username@your_vps_ip
Step 2: Install SteamCMD
SteamCMD is a command-line version of Steam that allows you to download game servers.
sudo apt update && sudo apt install steamcmd -y
Step 3: Download the Enshrouded Dedicated Server
login anonymousforce_install_dir ./enshrouded_serverapp_update 2278520 validate
Step 4: Configure Your Enshrouded Server
After installation, configure the server by editing the configuration file, typically named enshrouded_server.json, within your server directory. Adjust settings like server name, password, IP address, and port numbers as necessary.
Step 5: Open Enshrouded Server Ports
Ensure your VPS firewall is configured to allow traffic through the game port and query port used by your Enshrouded server. This is typically done by adding rules to allow TCP/UDP traffic on ports 15636 and 15637, respectively.
Step 6: Launch Your Enshrouded Server
Execute the server application to start your server. Confirm its availability by checking for a 'HostOnline' message or similar confirmation.
Step 7: Connect to Your Server
Players can now join your server by selecting "Play" in the Enshrouded menu, creating a character, and searching for your server by name.

About Enshrouded
What is Enshrouded?
Enshrouded is a survival action RPG set in the vast, fallen kingdom of Embervale. Developed by Keen Games, the title combines deep combat mechanics with an expansive voxel-based building system, placing players in a world devastated by a mysterious corruption known as the Shroud. Players take on the role of the Flameborn, ancient warriors awakened from slumber to reclaim the land, uncover lost knowledge, and rebuild civilization. The game supports cooperative play for up to 16 players on a single dedicated server, making shared adventures and community building a core part of the experience.
Voxel-Based Action Survival RPG
Enshrouded sets itself apart with its voxel-based world, where nearly every surface can be shaped, destroyed, or built upon. Terrain deformation and freeform building allow players to carve tunnels through mountains, construct multi-story fortresses, and terraform the landscape to suit their needs. Combat draws from action RPG traditions with skill trees spanning Warrior, Ranger, and Wizard archetypes, letting players tailor their playstyle with melee, ranged, and magical abilities. Boss encounters, dynamic enemies, and increasingly dangerous Shroud zones provide a constant challenge as players progress through the game.
Crafting and Building
The crafting system in Enshrouded is deeply integrated with exploration and progression. Players gather resources across diverse biomes to forge weapons, armor, tools, and consumables at specialized workstations. Rescued NPCs unlock advanced crafting recipes and workshops within player-built settlements, creating a rewarding loop of exploration, rescue, and base expansion. The building tools offer exceptional creative freedom, from humble shelters to sprawling towns, all rendered with detailed voxel geometry and a wide selection of materials and decorative elements.
Why Host Your Own Enshrouded Server?
Running your own Enshrouded dedicated server gives you full control over the world your group explores together. Set server passwords, adjust difficulty, manage world saves, and keep the server running around the clock so friends can drop in anytime. With XGamingServer's AMD Ryzen 9 7950X hardware, your Enshrouded server benefits from high single-thread performance, which directly translates to smoother gameplay, faster world loading, and stable frame rates even with a full roster of 16 players exploring the Shroud together.
Frequently Asked Questions About Enshrouded Hosting
Below are some of the FAQs that our customers ask. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out.
- Enshrouded is an action RPG survival game by Keen Games set in the open world of Embervale. It features voxel-based terrain destruction, gliding, and grappling hook traversal across a fixed shared map. Dedicated servers support up to 16 players cooperatively — the world stays online 24/7 so teammates can log in on their own schedule. Unlike procedurally generated games, every player explores the same handcrafted world with identical dungeon layouts and boss locations.
- The Shroud is a deadly toxic fog blanketing much of Embervale. Entering a Shroud zone starts a countdown timer — if it hits zero, you die. These areas contain stronger enemies, boss encounters, and the best loot in the game. Boss progression in Enshrouded is tied to pushing deeper into Shroud zones. On a dedicated server, coordinating Shroud runs with your group is much easier since everyone can join at any time without relying on a player-hosted session.
- The Flame Altar is the anchor point for every base in Enshrouded. Placing one claims a protected building zone, and upgrading it with Shroud Cores expands the allowed area for construction. Players can place multiple Flame Altars across the map to create forward outposts near Shroud zones. On a dedicated server, base decay settings are configurable in the enshrouded_server.json file, letting admins control how quickly unattended structures deteriorate or disable decay entirely.
- Enshrouded features five rescuable Craftspeople NPCs — the Blacksmith, Alchemist, Farmer, Hunter, and Carpenter. Each one unlocks exclusive crafting recipes when placed at your Flame Altar base. The Blacksmith enables metal weapons and armor, the Alchemist brews potions and magical items, the Farmer unlocks cooking and crop growing, the Hunter provides ranged weapon upgrades, and the Carpenter opens up advanced building materials. On a multiplayer server, all players benefit from rescued NPCs, so prioritizing which ones to save first becomes a group strategy decision.
- Enshrouded uses a skill tree with three base archetypes — Warrior, Ranger, and Mage — each branching into specializations such as Champion, Battlemage, Assassin, Survivor, Healer, and Battle Mage. Players earn skill points through leveling and can create hybrid builds across trees. On a 16-player dedicated server, groups often coordinate builds so the team covers tanking, healing, ranged DPS, and support roles for tougher Shroud encounters and boss fights.
- Enshrouded dedicated servers use UDP port 15636 by default. All server configuration lives in the enshrouded_server.json file, where you can set the server name, password, player count (up to 16), difficulty presets or fully custom difficulty sliders, and base decay rates. On XGamingServer, you can edit these settings through the Pterodactyl game panel or access the config file directly via SFTP for fine-tuned control.
- Yes, Enshrouded save files are fully portable between servers. You can download your world save via SFTP from your current host and upload it to a new server — all progress, player-built structures, rescued NPCs, and explored map data transfers with it. This makes it easy to migrate from a self-hosted setup to XGamingServer or switch between hosting plans without losing anything.
- Enshrouded dedicated servers typically need 4-8 GB of RAM depending on player count and the complexity of player-built bases. For a full 16-player server with large constructions, 8 GB or more is recommended for stable performance. Enshrouded is currently Steam-exclusive with no crossplay support, so all players need the Steam version to connect. XGamingServer plans include enough dedicated RAM for smooth gameplay and can be upgraded at any time as your server grows.
