Enshrouded Melodies of The Mire update - Bard

Enshrouded – Melodies of the Mire update lets you travel the world in a band of bards

Fancy a little jingle?

Enshrouded has grown even further this week. Melodies of the Mire is the next update for the open-world multiplayer survival game. And don’t worry: “Melodies” isn’t some meaningless alliteration. The new Enshrouded – Melodies of the Mire update lets you skip through a new biome as a musical bard, if you wish.

Obviously, you want to skip through the biome as a musical bard. Who wouldn’t? Thankfully, you won’t even have to do it alone. You can craft instruments, ranging from a lute to a flute, and even a harp. There are multiple instruments, allowing you and a few buddies to traipse through the world as your very own band of bards. Frankly, allowing players to stop and bust out a jingle is something every game should try to implement. You can’t let the pirates of Sea of Thieves have all the fun, right?

Enshrouded – Melodies of the Mire update brings more to explore

Moving away from the melodies, we should cover the “Mire” part of “Melodies of the Mire.” The Blackmire is an expansion of the Revelwoods. This vertical-focused biome lets you bounce high into the trees using jump pads. A new enemy type called the Vukah is already waiting in the branches, however, waiting for a fight. The update comes with new tree and terrain types, along with props and furniture to craft. If you don’t mind having the Vukah as neighbors, the update also lets you build a treehouse in the mire. Doesn’t that sound cozy?

That’s not all the update brings. You can also check out a new weapon, the Dual-Wielded Daggers, and a vanity system that lets you hide some equipped gear.

Enshrouded update includes the community’s top-voted change

The Enshrouded community has been clamoring for player-based quest progression, and they finally have it. Melodies of the Mire includes player and world progression, allowing you to complete quests even if someone on the server already did. The change has more than 19,000 votes on the Enshrouded feedback page. I’m guessing a lot of people are going to be happy with the update.

There are more changes to peruse, so check out the update notes before hopping in to start your own band.
