Week Eighty is here and we’re introducing our newest items, the Creature Deterrents.

This is a creature spawn blocker, which allows you to create a radius of safety where creatures won’t roam, engage or spawn while you complete your tasks or try catch some needed rest.

We’ve also had a breakthrough on some of our most rare crashes thanks to the reporting done by you, the players, using our in-game reporting tool.

Finally, we’ve got some great videos of our team talking about Icarus' development with some content creators recently, so check those out.



Creature Spawn Blockers

Welcome to Week Seventy Nine.

Following on from the incredibly successful launch of Galileo last week, we’re following it up with a bunch of bug fixes and UI improvements that slipped through the cracks or were picked up on by players as they tested out the new features.

We also released our Interior Decorations DLC last week, a small package of mineral lamps and paintings for players who want to support our development and throw an extra few dollars our way.

Finally, we’ve got an update on the next named update and what to expect from that, along with progress on our first expansion New Frontiers.

Hop in and have a read.

Galileo is finally here.

Our first named update in our new cadence brings the long-awaited fishing system, with 53 species, 3 rods, 23 lures and so much more. Catch, record, display and fillet a range of marine life, with their own mini-game and dedicated fishing book.

The Bestiary is your one-stop-shop guide to all of Icarus’ fauna, giving unique lore, perks, unlocks and advantages as you hunt, kill, skin and display your conquests.

Finally, Steam Achievements, Trading Cards, Badges, Backgrounds and Emoticons have all been added for you to complete, trade, unlock and display on your Steam profiles.

We’ve also made balance changes to address all this new content, and included a small decorative DLC for people who wish to decorate their base with mineral lamps or artwork, and support our con... Read more

Is it working since the hotfix? I jumped in and it seems to be fine my side, if it isn’t working for you let me know and I’ll make sure it’s addressed.

If you and your friend check the versions at the top of the application when you log in and you can compare to the versions below

Released Patch: 1.2.52.111515
Hotfix: 1.2.52.111537
