Icarus Beta Weekend #3: Size of New Arctic Biome Revealed

In a recent tweet, RocketWerkz CEO Dean Hall showed off a map that includes the Arctic biome, which will be accessible during Icarus’s upcoming Beta Weekend #3.

It looks to be nearly the same total area as the Forest Biome; given the harsher weather and presumably more dangerous wildlife, it seems safe to say that the two-day Beta Weekend won’t be nearly enough time to see all that Icarus’ Arctic has to offer. In addition to the new playable area, this iteration of the beta also promises better stability and performance.

The game’s third beta weekend will be this Saturday and Sunday, September 25th and 26th. If you’re interested in participating in the beta weekend, you can do so by pre-ordering the game on Steam. Here at EIP, we’re definitely hoping they’ll start this beta weekend early (or let it run long), as they did for the previous beta weekend.
