Icarus Sets PS5 and Xbox Series Launch for Q1 2026

Console versions are developed by Grip Studios with content differences that preclude cross-play.

Overview

  • The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series ports are slated for early 2026 following a reveal during the Galaxies showcase.
  • Grip Studios is building the console editions separately from RocketWerkz to optimize for each platform.
  • Cross-play with PC will not be supported because the console and PC builds differ in content and packaging, Dean Hall said.
  • The New Frontiers expansion is included at launch, adding the Prometheus region, fresh biomes and creatures, and more than 100 new craftable items.
  • Console Edition supports solo play or co-op drops for up to four players, with full controller support emphasized.
