About the game

What is an Icarus server?

Icarus is a co-op PvE survival game from RocketWerkz: your crew drops onto a hostile, failed-terraforming planet to gather, craft and build while storms and wildlife fight back. You can take on timed Prospect missions or settle into a persistent Open World. An Icarus server is your own dedicated host for those sessions, online 24/7 with unlimited player slots, so your world keeps running even when the original host logs off.

With your own server, your crew sets the pace: upload an existing Open World or single-player save, adjust session rules in the browser panel, roll back to a Backup with the ZapX Pass after a disastrous storm and pick the location closest to your players. Nobody has to leave a gaming PC running overnight, and everyone can drop in whenever they have time.

Features

Everything your Icarus crew needs.

From your first drop to a sprawling Open World base: the tools that keep your survival sessions running.

Unlimited slots for your crew

Everyone joins without slot fees; you only choose RAM and CPU.

Bring your Open World along

Keep playing your existing Open World or single-player save on the server.

Backups before every risky drop with ZapX Pass

With ZapX Pass, roll back after a lost base or a failed Prospect in a few clicks.

Session rules in the panel

Set passwords, session name and Prospect rights right in your browser.

Prospects and Open World

Run timed Prospect missions or a persistent Open World on one server.

Online in 60 seconds

Order now and drop onto Icarus with your crew 60 seconds later.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Icarus

Answers to the most important questions before you start.

Pick a package that fits your crew, choose a location and term, and complete your order. Your Icarus server is online in about 60 seconds. You'll find the IP and port in the panel, so your friends can join right away. Connecting to your Icarus server

Choose RAM and CPU for your group
Pick the location closest to your players
Connect with the details shown in the panel

The price depends on the RAM and CPU package, the term you choose, from 3 up to 365 days, and the location. Every package includes unlimited player slots and DDoS protection, so you never pay per player. Current prices for every package are shown live in the package overview on this page and in the shop, and you can cancel anytime.

Icarus uses a lot of memory, and demand grows with the size of your bases, the number of active players and how long an Open World has been running. Short Prospect missions with a small crew need less than a persistent Open World with a big group. Start with a package that fits your group, watch the live statistics and upgrade RAM and CPU whenever your world grows. As a guideline: at least 4 GB, 10 GB recommended.

Small crew on Prospects: less RAM needed
Big bases or long Open World sessions: plan more RAM
Live statistics show when you're close to the limit

Every package comes with unlimited player slots, so we never limit or charge per player. The game itself sets the maximum number of players per session. More RAM and CPU don't add slots; they keep the session smooth as your crew and bases grow.

Yes. Stop the server, upload your Open World or single-player save through the file manager in the panel and start the server again. Your crew picks up exactly where you left off. Create a Backup first with the ZapX Pass if you're replacing a world that's already on the server. How to manage Icarus savegames

Choose the location closest to where most of your players live, as that keeps ping low for everyone. ZAP-Hosting offers locations worldwide; many North American crews start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles. Since the location is set per server, pick it with your whole group in mind when you order.

Yes. Your server runs around the clock in our data center, independent of anyone's PC. Friends can keep playing in your Open World or start Prospects while you're offline, and you can set restart schedules in the panel.

Yes, RocketWerkz provides the Icarus Dedicated Server software for self-hosting. You then need a PC running 24/7 with plenty of RAM, port forwarding on your router and manual updates. A rented server takes that off your plate: it stays online, comes with DDoS protection and Backups, and you manage everything from the browser or the app.

Self-hosting: your PC, your power bill, your router setup
Renting: online 24/7, DDoS protection and Backups included

My crew can't find our Icarus server. What should I check?

Let's go through it step by step: check that the server shows as online in the panel, then compare the session name and join password with what your friends enter. If it still doesn't appear, your friends can connect directly with the IP and port shown in the panel.

It's online, but they still can't join.

Then look at the latest console output together with me. I'll explain which lines point to a wrong password or a server that's still loading the world.
