DayZ mastermind Dean Hall has lifted the wraps off his next project, a free-to-play multiplayer survival romp by the name of Icarus.
Icarus Announced As Dean Hall’s New Game
Icarus will see players teaming up to explore a vibrant alien world ripe with valuable resources, although this won’t be a sight-seeing trip; survival is paramount in Icarus, so you’ll need to be careful if you’re to stay alive.
Here’s the official blurb for some early details on Icarus:
While navigating each prospect’s unique challenges, players must collect meta-resources to permanently progress, create advanced technologies and take on longer missions. Harsh environments demand an envirosuit, regular oxygen, food and water, shelter and constant attention. The wildlife is easily provoked, and your plans may need to change on the fly.
Take the resources you find back up to orbit to craft advanced technology for your drop, either with a crew or solo. Use your time wisely or be left empty-handed or even left behind. Calculate the risks, stretch your endurance and resources. How far are you willing to go?
