About
Icarus (2021) is a multiplayer co-operative survival game that blends action, adventure, and simulation gameplay. Players explore an alien world to survive, gather resources, and build their fortune alongside others, with progression that carries over between sessions. The game's persistent metagame structure gives it a distinctive hook within the survival genre.
Running Icarus is fairly accessible for most modern PC gamers. The minimum GPU requirement sits around entry-level hardware with a benchmark score of approximately 9212, meaning even budget graphics cards can handle baseline performance. For solid 60+ FPS at medium to high graphics settings, you'll want at least a mid-range GPU paired with 16GB of RAM. Performance scales well across different GPU tiers, making it easy to dial in your preferred balance between visual quality and frame rates.
With a 70/100 rating, Icarus delivers a solid experience for players interested in cooperative survival gameplay. If you enjoy building, exploring, and progressing alongside friends in a sci-fi setting, it's worth checking out—though it's not a genre-defining title.
Performance profile
Released in December 2021, Icarus targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.
Simulation titles like Icarus are heavily CPU-dependent — physics, AI and world state dominate the frame budget. Prioritise a CPU with strong single-thread performance and fast RAM over raw GPU power.
Mid-range territory. An RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT delivers 60 FPS at 1080p High in Icarus. For 1440p Ultra you'll want an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT; 4K Ultra needs an RTX 4070 Ti or faster.
