Welcome to Guns of Icarus Online, the first cooperative airship combat game mixing together first-person shooter action with team-based strategy. Up to four people will crew a ship, taking on one of three key roles—Captain, Gunner, and Engineer—to battle it out against other ships above the post-apocalyptic waste. In Guns of Icarus Online it will take teamwork and tactics to dominate the skies.
In the most recent beta test, covering Friday May 11th to Sunday May 13th, we had over 200 matches with over 7,000 ship components destroyed—over 8 components destroyed per ship—per match! The most popular ship was The Junker, whose 5 small guns give it extreme tactical flexibility that makes up for its lack of maneuverability. The most popular gun was the Small Howitzer, whose long range and high damage make up for its low ammo count and limited firing arc.
Muse Games would like to thank all of our Kickstarter backers and fans who have helped us with the first two rounds of testing. We look forward to our next beta event starting on May 25th.
