There's two types of players in Icarus. Efficient 4x4 box with carefully organised bench placement, and then this. Which one are you? And can your base beat this one?

#1
has ended!
Thank you for playing and giving us your feedback. Our next Beta Weekend begins September 10th PDT where you will face the wrath of Icarus' Storms.
See you then!
The Arctic biome is now available for you to explore! Will you prevail through its below zero climate and survive its predators?
Beta Weekend
#3
has officially commenced, see you on Icarus!
A home away from home. A good stone building will withstand a lot more environmental damage than its wood or thatch counterparts. Whose found that out the hard way? 🗿

This bug was just the laugh i needed late in the day. I thought the characters top half wasn't rendering, but upon closer inspection it got much better.
Our Icarus Beta Weekends are just around the corner!
Check out the official trailer, and get ready for weekend one on August 28th. We can't wait to see you land, prospector!

#surviveicarus
We gave you chainsaws and you used them to drop trees on each other and you want us to give you CARS?!
(Disclaimer: Still planned for the future, but we are visibly concerned about trusting you all)

Ever wanted to try Icarus or have a friend who is on the fence? Get them to come play for free, no strings attached!
To all our new players from the Steam Summer Sale, welcome! Here are some tips:
- A bedroll will save you from sheer terror on your first night. Get hunting.
- You might think you are in Paddington Bear, you are not, this is the Revenant.
- Fire is fun until you are the fire.
Our team has been working a lot on refining the trees in Icarus this month.
We've completely re hauled the leaf textures, and we are now using
@SpeedTreeInc
shaders.
Every tree in the map now blows in the wind when a storm is starting to roll in!
The Future of Survival Gaming is coming!
Icarus is a free-to-play, multiplayer co-operative survival game with persistent metagame progression.

Deep in one of Icarus's many lakes, lies a secret cave full of valuable ores and resources. Only those with the sharpest eyes have found it, are you one of them? 👀🌊
#surviveicarus
That quiet moment you take to pause and reflect before you 10x over-encumber yourself with iron ore and crawl back to base ✌️

The art team behind Icarus has been hard at work for years, and their hard work is behind the stunning in-game visuals you've all been enjoying. If you want a behind the scenes look at some of their projects, check out our feature on ArtStation!
This week is 25 straight weeks of updates (6 months) and to celebrate this anniversary, we're going to go way too big, have an existential crisis and then declare our undying love for you. And then back at it again Monday morning.
Oops! We had an unexpected 30-minute outage, but this has been resolved and servers are back online! We will have an incident report to share soon, with our steps to make sure this doesn't happen again! 🔥
#surviveicarus
When we developed outpost modes we thought you guys might make some cool things. We didn't think you'd recreate the 14th century 🤯

has come to a close! Thanks for playing!
If you haven't already, now is a great time to provide us your feedback at 👍
#surviveicarus
It took 7 billion people to destroy this planet but apparently all it takes is 4 prospectors and a wooden torch to decimate the new one we found you. We really can't trust ya'll with anything.
Everyone asking for vehicles so much we might just give them all bus cards and make them wait 20 minutes in the rain for their bus to never show up instead
The fires lit, the snow storm's outside, it's just like home. 🔥❄️

This week's UPDATE focusses on map improvements, cave updates (more mineral deposits!), game balance changes and some performance optimizations.
We also talk about how we're planning to respond to your most-requested features in future updates...
Last Beta Weekend we saw some stunning kitted out caves! Take notes prospectors, they can be a useful midway base when you're in the thick of the Arctic 🧊
