Enshrouded: The Frosted Frontier Expansion News
The Shroud has frozen over. Keen Games has released their largest content expansion to date: The Frosted Frontier. This 2026 update takes the Flameborn into the high-altitude peaks of Embervale, introducing not only a massive new biome but also fundamental changes to how players navigate the world using their gliders and grappling hooks.
❄️ Advanced Snow Physics
A new voxel layer for snow allows for dynamic accumulation and deformation. Trails you leave in the snow can now be tracked by enemies—or other players.
🦅 Thermal Updrafts
Master the skies with thermal updrafts and volcanic vents. These new environmental features allow for infinite glider flight if you can navigate the air currents correctly.
What to Expect on Your Dedicated Server
The "Frosted Frontier" patch is a heavy technical update. Enshrouded dedicated servers now feature improved voxel-stability logic to handle the increased complexity of snow-covered structures. Administrators should note that the world-size has increased by roughly 25%, requiring at least 14GB of RAM for 16-player servers to maintain a stable 60Hz tick rate.
Expansion Highlights
- Obsidian & Silver: New high-tier crafting materials found exclusively in the volcanic sub-biomes of the frozen north.
- The Frost Giant Boss: A multi-stage encounter requiring a full squad of characters leveled 35+ to conquer.
- Internal Heating: A new survival mechanic. Bases in the peaks require 'Eternal Fires' or specific insulation blocks to prevent health-drain from the cold.
Hot Tip: Use the new 'Thermal Glider' to take advantage of the updrafts in the peaks. It provides 50% more airtime but is slower during descent.
