Icarus’s first-ever Free Weekend is here!
This has been in the works for some time, and we are excited to finally do one of these and give players who have been on the fence about Icarus the chance to try it out and see all the work that has gone into it over the last two years.
For those unfamiliar with what a Free Weekend is, this is a four-day period over the weekend when anyone can download Icarus and play without having to have purchased the game.
If you’ve got friends you’ve been trying to convince to get the game, this is a great time to get them to come join you with no strings attached.
All content in the Icarus base game will be playable, including Open World and Operations on Olympus. We’ve also put the game itself and a bunch of the DLC on discount so if you enjoy it, you can score a good deal to keep playing long after the Free Weekend finishes.

Two Years of Icarus

The game has changed dramatically in two years, with a ton of new features and content added after release based on player feedback. The work we’ve put in has only been matched by your enthusiasm to play it, and we feel very lucky to be able to continue working with the community to make the game even bigger and better.
How much has the game changed since its launch?

Join us for our Free Weekend Twitch stream
If you didn’t already know, our team streams twice a week over on http://twitch.tv/rocketwerkz, playing Icarus and other titles from the studio including Stationeers and some up-and-coming projects.
We’re doing a massive Free Weekend stream to celebrate our 2 year anniversary, where we’ll be playing with multiple studio members and doing a bunch of giveaways. As part of the birthday celebration we've also discounted our entire merch store[robaroba.gg]!
If you like what we’re doing with Icarus, and want to support our continued development, consider purchasing one of our DLCs for a few dollars, it would mean a lot to us.
