DayZ creator's monster-hunting survival game gets major new DLC offering brutal endgame challenges with lavish loot: 'Survival games should be challenging, after all'

Back in June at the PC Gaming Show, Rocketwerkz revealed what's next for its co-op survival game Icarus: A major DLC called Great Hunts Campaigns that effectively turns Icarus into a first-person monster hunting game. Rocketwerkz said at the time that Great Hunts would launch "soon," and today it got more specific by announcing that it's out, well, today.

The "campaigns" part of Great Hunts Campaigns is important, because you won't just be heading off to shoot a really big beast in the face. The DLC includes three separate campaigns with 34 missions branching across all three of the game's open-world maps, leading up to "three high-stakes boss encounters in dedicated arenas." Powerful gear including unique legendary weapons awaits players who can take them down, but it won't be easy—this is very much endgame stuff.
