The creator of DayZ and Icarus has announced a massive DLC for the latter game, and it's packed with new content. Originally released in 2021 to mostly positive reviews, Icarus is known for its brutally challenging gameplay and unforgiving environments
The expansion will feature three initial hunts: Quarrite on Olympus, Gargantuan on Styx, and Rimetusk on Prometheus, with additional hunts planned for the future. Completing these hunts will unlock new bosses, each with unique abilities.
The developer also clarified that the DLC is not essential and that many base game mechanics will be updated for free. Although no specific release date was provided, the expansion is set to be available soon.
Icarus is known for being notoriously hard, which has prompted developers to adjust the game’s difficulty in response to concerns about characters dying too often and being permanently lost due to permadeath.
In 2022, Icarus introduced an insurance option, allowing players to respawn at the space station after dying from permadeath, provided they were on an insured mission
