Enshrouded – Test video for the survival game in Early Access

Palworld has been leading all Steam metrics imaginable since its release, an absolute global success. Shortly afterwards, the Europe developers at Keen Games showed the courage to fish in the same pond. Although their survival game Enshrouded doesn’t reach the astronomical numbers of Palworld, it’s still enough for a million players and second place in the weekly top sellers.

Enshrouded combines game mechanics reminiscent of Valheim and Zelda. You explore a vast landscape, build a base using a sophisticated construction system, craft sharp-edged equipment and use it to destroy nasty monsters. All this to save the world, which is plagued by a mysterious nebula, and its remaining people.

Our tester André comes to a positive early access conclusion at Enshrouded. And here you can find more popular content on the topic:

Flying fists and the Yakuza

Bandai Namco and Ryu Ga Gotoku also release their big releases almost at the same time. We’re talking about Tekken 8, which achieved a strong third place in Steam’s top sellers, and Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, which ranked sixth last week.

Tekken should be familiar to everyone, after all, the series is considered one of the most successful fighting game brands ever. The eighth part shows many other representatives of the genre with Unreal Engine 5 where the graphics hammer lies. Well seen in our test video:

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is the next entry in the new storyline from the Yakuza universe that began with Yakuza: Like a Dragon. This time the new protagonist Ichiban Kasuga meets the veteran warrior Kazuma Kiryu from the original game series, which connects the older with the younger era.
