DDOS PROTECTION

Keep your Icarus server safe from attacks and unauthorized access. We've implemented enterprise-grade security measures to protect your server and player data, ensuring uninterrupted survival gameplay for your prospect team.

Our infrastructure includes advanced DDoS protection on all plans, capable of mitigating high-volume attacks without affecting server performance. Your team can focus on completing prospects and surviving the planet instead of worrying about server security or downtime from malicious attacks.

FULL CUSTOMIZATION & MOD SUPPORT

Take complete control of your Icarus server with full SFTP access and comprehensive customization options. Configure prospect parameters, adjust difficulty settings, customize environmental hazards, and fine-tune gameplay mechanics. Install mods manually via .pak files to add new content, items, and quality-of-life improvements from the Nexus Mods community.

Our control panel makes it easy to manage server settings, install mods, and edit configuration files without technical knowledge. Whether you're running vanilla prospects or a modded experience, our 24/7 support team is always available to help optimize your Icarus hosting.

What is Icarus?

Icarus is a session-based PvE survival game from Dean Hall, creator of DayZ, set on a distant planet where prospectors drop from orbit to complete timed missions. Unlike traditional survival games, Icarus features a unique prospect system where players undertake missions with defined objectives and time limits, ranging from hours to weeks. Gather resources, craft tools and weapons, build shelters, and survive harsh environmental conditions including toxic atmosphere, dynamic weather, and dangerous wildlife. The game supports up to 8 players in cooperative gameplay with multiple modes including timed Missions, persistent Open Worlds, and sandbox Outposts. With 153+ consecutive weekly updates, Icarus delivers a polished sci-fi survival experience focused entirely on PvE cooperation.

Running your own Icarus dedicated server gives you complete control over your prospect team's survival experience. While materials reset each mission, character progression persists - talents and blueprints carry over between prospects, creating meaningful long-term advancement. Host private sessions for your team, customize mission parameters, and ensure your group always has a server ready for the next drop. With full server access and powerful hardware optimized for Icarus's resource-intensive gameplay, you can host smooth multiplayer sessions where your team tackles challenging prospects together. Our automatic backups protect your world data and character progress.

Best Icarus server hosting

Icarus drops your team onto a hostile alien world for session-based PvE survival, and an Icarus dedicated server keeps a persistent home ready for every prospect. Set one up to host an Icarus server with friends, run private missions, and carry your character progression between drops. Hardware-tuned Icarus server hosting handles the game's resource-heavy world without the stutter of self-hosting.

Icarus Poster

What your Icarus server needs

For Icarus we suggest 6 GB for up to 2 players, 8 GB for up to 4 players, 10 GB for up to 6 players and 12 GB for up to 8 players, the same sizes the plan picker above recommends. The game benefits from at least 4 CPU threads with strong per-core clock speed for world generation and simulation. Reserve several GB of NVMe storage for world data and character saves.

Prospects, Open Worlds, and mods

A dedicated server lets you run timed Prospect missions, persistent Open Worlds, or sandbox Outposts, tune mission parameters, and install .pak mods from Nexus for a fully custom PvE experience.

Why Wabbanode

AMD Ryzen 9 CPUs, NVMe storage, enterprise DDoS protection, free automatic backups, and instant setup keep your prospects smooth, backed by 24/7 support.
