Icarus Week 246 is live on PC. The new Tier 3 Metal Weapon Rack has been added, giving Prospectors a tougher, non-flammable way to store and display their weapons and tools. Crafted at the Machining Bench, it features higher durability than the Wooden Weapon Rack and fits right into any battle-ready base. This update also fixes Chocolate Cake, improves ambient and weather audio performance, increases grenade stacks to 10, updates the Server Browser, and includes mission, building cleanup and inventory fixes. We also shared a behind-the-scenes look at the studio power cut during last week’s livestream, the electrical fire scare that followed, and how the team safely got production services back online.

Icarus Week 243 is live on PC. Livewire on Olympus has received a major revamp, bringing one of Icarus’ earliest missions closer to the quality and flow of newer Operations. The updated mission features a fresh structure, clearer guidance, new tactical challenges and stronger scene setting as part of the ongoing Olympus Operation Update. This week also includes fixes for mission rewards not always unlocking correctly, prebuilt structure optimisations to reduce stuttering, Lava Hunter behaviour updates, recipe fixes, destructible Metal Grate Building Pieces and more.
