Exploring the Size of Enshrouded Game Installation on PC
Interestingly, if we look at Palworld, a hugely successful open-world survival game with creature capturing mechanics, which was released shortly before Enshrouded, we see a much larger size – almost 20 gigabytes. Again, in the case of Palworld, the deeper and more complex work on polygons and textures impacts the installation size.
Moving on to Enshrouded, a survival game with crafting elements, you will notice that its world is likely larger and more detailed than Palworld. This is due to the fact that Enshrouded’s open world utilizes voxel technology, as well as a high number of polygons and high-resolution textures. It’s worth mentioning that the download size of Enshrouded is about 11 gigabytes, with the actual installation size being around 30 gigabytes.
However, these figures differ from the system requirements, which indicate the need for approximately 60 gigabytes of free disk space. This is understandable since most game system requirements ask for more space than they actually occupy. Nevertheless, such a size and quality come at a cost. Some players report that compared to other games like Palworld or Valheim, Enshrouded runs less optimally and has lower performance. It is difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of these performance issues in Enshrouded. It is possible that they are due to the size and complexity of the game world and the optimization techniques employed for the voxel system.
