MADE FOR YOU

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.

INSTANT SETUP

Get your Icarus server online in minutes with our streamlined deployment process. No technical expertise required - select your settings and we'll automatically configure your server. Your prospect team can start their next drop immediately.

Our automated system handles all the technical setup, from server initialization to performance optimization. Whether you're hosting a small private server for your regular group or setting up for larger prospect teams, your Icarus server will be ready for players in under 10 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our game server hosting. Can't find what you're looking for? Contact our support team.

How do I set up my Icarus server?

Setting up your Icarus server is quick and easy. After selecting your plan, our automated system deploys your server in minutes. Configure basic settings and your prospect team is ready to drop onto the planet.

How many players can join my Icarus server?

Icarus supports up to 8 players per session. The game is balanced for cooperative PvE gameplay, and our server configurations are optimized to handle full 8-player teams with smooth performance.

What is the prospect system?

Prospects are timed missions with specific objectives. Players drop from orbit, complete goals like resource gathering or boss fights, then extract before the timer expires. Materials crafted during prospects are lost on extraction, but character talents and blueprints persist permanently.

Does character progression carry over between sessions?

Yes! While crafted items and gathered materials reset each prospect, your character's talents and unlocked blueprints persist permanently. This creates meaningful long-term progression while maintaining the fresh-start challenge of each new mission.

What game modes does Icarus support?

Icarus offers multiple game modes: timed Prospect Missions with specific objectives, persistent Open Worlds for continuous play, and Outpost mode for sandbox building without time pressure. You can run any mode on your dedicated server.

Does Icarus support mods?

Yes, Icarus supports mods through manual installation via .pak files. While Steam Workshop isn't supported, you can install mods from Nexus Mods and other sources through SFTP access. Note that mods may need updates after weekly game patches.

What kind of support do you offer?

We provide 24/7 expert support for all Icarus hosting customers. Our knowledgeable team can help with server configuration, mod installation, performance optimization, and any technical issues you encounter.

What hardware do you use for Icarus servers?

We use high-performance Ryzen 9 7950x and i9 9900K CPUs across our locations. All Icarus servers are allocated a minimum of 4 CPU threads with NVMe SSD storage, crucial for Icarus's resource-intensive gameplay and world generation.
