Can You Run Enshrouded?
Minimum and recommended PC requirements, side by side, with a free check against your own hardware.
Quick answer
To run Enshrouded at minimum settings you need an Intel Core i5-6400 or better, 16 GB of memory, and graphics at least as fast as the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB. For comfortable frame rates, aim for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super with 16 GB of memory. Set aside 60 GB of drive space.

What these numbers mean in practice
Minimum requirements are the floor, not a target. Meeting them means Enshrouded will start and remain playable, typically at low settings and often around 30 frames per second. If your hardware only just clears the minimum, expect to lower the resolution before you lower anything else, since resolution costs more performance than almost any other setting.
The graphics card matters more than any other component here. In our scoring the GPU carries 40 percent of the compatibility result, the processor 30 percent, and memory and storage speed 15 percent each. A strong processor cannot rescue a card that falls below the minimum, though a weak processor can hold back a strong card at lower resolutions.
Storage speed is the most commonly overlooked requirement. Enshrouded lists 60 GB of space, and modern titles stream assets from disk while you play. On a mechanical drive you get texture pop in and longer loading even when every other part of your system is comfortably above spec.
Frequently asked questions
Can I run Enshrouded on my PC?
To run Enshrouded at minimum settings you need an Intel Core i5-6400 or better, 16 GB of memory, and graphics at least as fast as the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB. For comfortable frame rates, aim for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super with 16 GB of memory. Set aside 60 GB of drive space. Enter your own specs in the checker above and you will get a compatibility score with an estimated frame rate rather than a simple yes or no.
What are the minimum requirements for Enshrouded?
Windows 10, Intel Core i5-6400 / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X, 16 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB / AMD Radeon RX 580 / Intel Arc A380, 60 GB available space. Minimum specs mean the game launches and runs, usually at low settings. These figures come from Enshrouded on Steam.
What are the recommended requirements for Enshrouded?
Windows 10, Intel Core i7-8700 / AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, 16 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super / AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT / Intel Arc A770, 60 GB available space. Recommended specs target a smooth experience at higher settings.
How much storage does Enshrouded need?
Enshrouded needs 60 GB of free space. Keen Games asks for a graphics card with at least 6 GB of video memory at both tiers and recommends an SSD. Both tiers list a broadband internet connection.
Does Enshrouded run on a laptop?
It can, but compare the actual laptop GPU rather than the desktop card with a similar name. Laptop graphics chips typically run 15 to 30 percent slower than their desktop counterparts because of power and cooling limits, so a laptop card that matches the recommended spec on paper often performs closer to the minimum.
