What Is Icarus?

ICARUS is a session-based PvE survival game for up to eight co-op players or solo.
Confront and conquer a brutal PvE world determined to wear you down or tear you apart. From toxic atmosphere to savage wildlife and game-altering weather events, Icarus is a planet with a temper. Preparation and planning are everything. Whether it’s to find a source of oxygen, stalk your next meal or stock supplies for a long journey into the wilderness.
Immerse yourself in a deceptively familiar, yet alien, world. The First Cohort of prospectors has been granted initial mining licenses for over 64 square kilometers of hand-crafted terrain full of hidden corners and resources to mine and diverse biomes to explore. Use the resources around you to survive - every single tree is harvestable, every rock can be voxel mined.
Master two separate tech trees: planet-side and orbital. Use the planet’s resources to craft handmade tools, buildings and machinery to protect yourself and aid your mission. Then return to orbit with your prize - rare exotic materials that you can engineer into advanced tech. As you progress, choose which tech to take on your next drop so you can travel further, gather faster, automate production or survive longer.
Your time on Icarus is limited, so use every second wisely. The orbital space station waits for no one. If you fail to return to your dropship in time, there is no rescue - your character’s progression and tech is lost to planet Icarus. Drop sessions can vary from hours to days long with varied missions and locations. Every drop has a clear goal and time limit, but how you overcome its challenges is up to you.

Amazing Trailer.

[@Crusty_Butte_]

That trailer is excellent. I loved watching the game play. I am excited about the new addition.

[@hummingblerd6157]

Trailer definitely captured me... Is this something you are looking to play? Cause I'd watch if you are!

[@WhiskyBarrelGaming]

Absolutely - played it last night! Will be uploading that stream later today. 😁👌

[@hummingblerd6157]

@@WhiskyBarrelGaming 😍👀 Hells yeah!!! Keen to check it out! 👌😁

[@ManfiCat]

Maybe I will start watching you play this game instead of just NMS lol

[@ryanorionwotanson4568]

I watched some gameplay, this looks like ark without the dinos, and revamped. I'm not sold on this...

[@WhiskyBarrelGaming]

Not nearly as cartoonish as Ark but certainly won't be everyone's cup of tea either. 😊👍

[@ryanorionwotanson4568]

@@WhiskyBarrelGaming it looks better, but looks so similar to ark otherwise 😂

[@fabled-pilgrim]

Well looks like the holiday rep sold me a crock of lies before I booked my 2 week vacation to Icarus ... I want a refund!!

[@WhiskyBarrelGaming]

Good luck! 🍀 😁

[@ryanorionwotanson4568]

A movie? Show? No, a video game!? Hopefully they didn't spend all the money on the trailer!! 🤣😂

[@WhiskyBarrelGaming]

video game. it's a very polished trailer for the game making it seem cinematic. I played it last Friday - take a look! I'll be streaming it more for sure!
