    ICARUS: Console Edition launching at the end of Feb

    The long-awaited drop is finally here. After years of PC-exclusive survival, ICARUS: Console Edition is officially making its planetary debut.

    Whether you’re a veteran prospector or a first-time survivor, here is everything you need to know about the jump to PlayStation and Xbox.

    The Launch Details

    • Release Date: February 26, 2026.
    • Platforms: PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
    • The Content: This isn’t just a port of the 2021 base game. The Console Edition includes the New Frontiers expansion from day one, giving you access to the massive, alien-infested region of Prometheus.

    What to Expect on Icarus

    If you’re new to the lore, Icarus is a session-based PvE survival game from the creator of DayZ. You are a prospector dropping onto a broken planet where terraforming went catastrophically wrong.

    • Hostile Environments: From toxic atmosphere to flash storms and “flesh-eating” wildlife, the planet wants you dead.
    • The Mission: Land, complete your objective (or just build a massive base), mine for rare Exotics, and get back to orbit before your timer runs out.
    • Progression: Use your hard-earned Exotics in the Orbital Workshop to buy permanent high-tech gear for your next drop.

    Console-Specific Features

    • Optimised Performance: Expect 4K resolution and 60 FPS on the latest hardware.
    • Multiplayer: Team up with up to 4 players in online co-op.
    • No Cross-play: Take note—cross-play is not supported between PC and consoles, nor between PS5 and Xbox. You’ll need to be on the same platform as your squad.
    • Pre-order Bonus: Grabbing the game early unlocks the Pet Companions Pack, which adds 11 domestic animals (cats, dogs, and horses) to help keep you sane in the wilderness.

    Pro Tip: If you’re playing solo, make sure to invest in the Solo Talent Tree. It provides massive buffs to health and harvesting speed that are disabled when playing in a group, making the “lone wolf” life much more viable.

    You Are SEVEN In The FPS SPRAWL

    Out now is SPRAWL an FPS game where you play the role of SEVEN an ex-special ops soldier betrayed by the organisation where she worked and who is now trying to escape from a walled cyberpunk city that is more dystopian than ever following a corporate takeover of the city.

    The streets of this city are vast with dark alleys and abandoned buildings, but you have the advantage of the Icarus cybernetic implant that allows SEVEN to perform beyond that of any normal person and can even slow down time, yet the armies of the government are vast and just keep coming, the only way to survive is to escape the city.
