Enshrouded isn't cross platform: there's no crossplay between PC and PlayStation 5 in Enshrouded 1.0. The game is on PC through Steam and on PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series X|S version is due in spring 2027.

Crossplay by platform

Platform Release Crossplay Players online Dedicated servers
PC (Steam) Early access since January 24, 2024. 1.0 on October 15, 2026 No Up to 16 Yes, Keen's free Steam server
PlayStation 5 October 15, 2026 No Up to 8, with PS Plus Yes, rented from a host. No crossplay with Steam (Enshrouded PS5 server hosting)

What it means for a dedicated server

PC players join the Steam dedicated server. PS5 players can't host a PS5 dedicated server themselves, so PS5 groups rent a separate PS5 server from a host: Enshrouded PS5 server hosting (how to set one up and join). PC and PS5 players can't join each other's servers, so order the server for the platform your group plays on.

Characters are saved on each player's own device, not on the server, so a server can't move a character between Steam and PlayStation.
