Inclusion Criteria: * Male participants with histologically- or cytologically-confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate without small cell histology * Has metastatic disease assessed by investigator and verified by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) by either ≥2 bone lesions on bone scan and/or visceral disease by computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (CT/MRI) * Willing to maintain continuous Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) with a luteinizing-hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) agonists or antagonists during study treatment or have a history of bilateral orchiectomy * Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 assessed within 10 days of randomization * Participants receiving bone resorptive therapy (including, but not limited to, bisphosphonate or denosumab) must have been on stable doses prior to randomization * Has adequate organ function * Has provided newly obtained core or excisional biopsy (obtained within 12 months of screening) from soft tissue not previously irradiated (samples from tumors progressing in a prior site of radiation are allowed). Participants with bone only or bone predominant disease may provide a bone biopsy sample * Male participants must agree to the following during the intervention period and for at least 120 days after the last dose of study intervention: Refrain from donating sperm PLUS either be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse and agree to remain abstinent OR agree to use contraception, unless confirmed to be azoospermic * Male participants must agree to use male condom when engaging in any activity that allows for passage of ejaculate to another person of any sex Exclusion Criteria: * Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment in the last 3 years * Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in past 2 years * Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy * Has undergone major surgery including local prostate intervention (excluding prostate biopsy) within 28 days prior to randomization and not recovered adequately from the toxicities and/or complications * Has a gastrointestinal disorder affecting absorption or is unable to swallow tablets/capsules * Has an active infection (including tuberculosis) requiring systemic therapy * Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or has current pneumonitis * Has known active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection * Has known or suspected central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis * Has a history of seizure or any condition that may predispose to seizure * Has a history of loss of consciousness within 12 months of screening * Has had myocardial infarction or uncontrolled angina within 6 months prior to randomization, or has New York Heart Association class III or IV congestive heart failure or a history of New York Heart Association class III or IV congestive heart failure * Has hypotension (systolic blood pressure \<86 millimeters of mercury \[mmHg\]) or uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure \>170 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>105 mmHg) at the screening visit * Has a history of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias * Has hypersensitivity to pembrolizumab and/or enzalutamide and/or any of their excipients * Has received prior ADT as neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy for non-metastatic prostate cancer for \>39 months in duration or within 9 months prior to randomization or with evidence of disease progression while receiving ADT * Has had prior treatment with a next generation hormonal agent (eg, abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide, darolutamide) * Has received prior therapy with an anti-programmed cell death-1 (anti-PD-1), anti-programmed cell death-ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1), or anti-programmed cell death-ligand 2 (anti PD-L2) agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or coinhibitory T-cell receptor * Has received a live vaccine within 30 days prior to randomization * Has a "superscan" bone scan * Has had an allogenic tissue/solid organ transplant * Is expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of study treatment * Has received any prior pharmacotherapy, radiation therapy or surgery for metastatic prostate cancer with the following exceptions: 1. Up to 3 months of ADT or orchiectomy with or without concurrent first-generation antiandrogens, if patient was not treated with docetaxel 2.
