Icarus: Console Edition — PS5

ICARUS: Console Edition
Land on ICARUS, a planet broken due to failed terraforming. Once meant to be humanity's second home, it is now a hostile frontier of toxic skies, savage wildlife, and relentless storms. Every drop from orbit is a fight for survival. Build shelter, craft weapons, hunt for food, and seek your fortune in exotic matter.
Survive alone or with up to four players in this uncompromising PvE survival game from the creator of DayZ.
The New Frontiers Expansion is included from the start, transforming ICARUS: Console Edition into a larger, deadlier but more rewarding survival experience. Discover new maps, missions, creatures, and rewards.

A PLANET THAT FIGHTS BACK
ICARUS resists your presence; poisoned air, lightning storms that tear apart structures, wildfires that spread unchecked, and predators that stalk in the shadows. It feels like the planet itself wants to drive you back into orbit.
· With New Frontiers added from the start, you can explore two 64 km2 maps of handcrafted terrain across forests, mountains, deserts, and caves
· Harvest every tree, rock, and creature
· Adapt to extreme weather and natural disasters

NEW FRONTIERS INCLUDED
The Prometheus region, once sealed off by the UDA, is now open. Terraforming failed here completely, leaving raw alien landscapes intact but warped. This expansion expands ICARUS far beyond its original borders:
· New Map & biomes: Alien grasslands, volcanic wastelands of molten lava, and dangerous swamplands
· Six Narrative Missions: A chained story across Prometheus as you pursue a mysterious whistleblower for the UDA
· New Creatures: Face Needlers, Dracs, Dreadwings, and other mutated apex predators, evolved to dominate these zones
· New Exotics: Discover a volatile new exotic with unique effects on the flora, plus new exotic plants and over 30 additional workshop items
· New Items & Resources: Mine obsidian, clay, scoria, crystallised miasma, and super-cooled ice; craft 100+ new items including weapons, food, recipes, and building tiers

PROGRESSION & REWARD
· Tech Tree & Talents: Advance from primitive tools to advanced tech
· Specialisation: Focus as a hunter, builder, or survivalist
· Orbital Workshop: Trade exotic matter for permanent upgrades and equipment
Exotic matter remains the ultimate prize; rare, unstable, and deadly to pursue.
