How to Start Multiplayer in Enshrouded

The option of multiplayer will have to be enabled right at the beginning of the game, even before players jump into the tough world that awaits them in Enshrouded. Once the game has loaded up, click to start a new game and three options will be provided on the screen:

Private: Start a private game that is saved locally.
Host: Start a public game that is saved locally.
Join: Join an online game.

If you are looking to play together with friends, then the latter two options are where you will need to go.

Hosting a Game in Enshrouded

Upon selecting the Host option, this will start up a world ripe for conquering that will be public with a total capacity of up to 16 players, including yourself. By default, anyone will be able to join your game as long as they can find it. If you want things to be a little more exclusive, a password can be set so that only those in the know can join your world.

Joining a Multiplayer Game in Enshrouded

For those who are not accustomed to hosting but want to join a friend's session, simply choose the Join option when starting the game. This will display a list of public servers and allow you to search for a specific server as well.

You can also filter the game to only show sessions hosted by friends to make things easier. With the right passwords in hand, you should be able to jump in without a fuss and start building your base alongside like-minded partners.
