Gameplay

Guns of Icarus Online Guns of Icarus Online Guns of Icarus Online is the steampunk

Guns of Icarus Online is a steampunk/dieselpunk, multiplayer, first-person shooter that focuses on airship combat. Each airship is controlled by up to four players, with each member of the crew taking a specific role. Players can choose three different classes: gunner, engineer or pilot, which will allow them access to different kinds of tools. The captain of each ship chooses which weapons to use in his/her ship. There are also several ships available:

  • Galleon: the Galleon is by far the biggest and more resilient ship, but also the slowest one. It focuses on high firepower and tank capabilities with high hull armor.
  • Squid: the Squid is the fastest ship in the game which allows its commander to outmaneuver enemy ships. It is also one of the weakest ships.
  • Goldfish: the Goldfish has a main gun on its prow, and two secondary guns on the port and starboard sides. It relies on its moderate speed and high maneuverability.
  • Junker: the Junker has 5 small weapon mountings. It also has high maneuverability, but a slow speed.
  • Pyramidion: the Pyramidion has two guns on the top deck and two on the low deck. With very high damage output, but slow turning speed, this ship is very versatile.
  • Spire: the Spire has a very high turning speed, but a very low linear speed. It is a high dps ship with very low hull armor.
  • Mobula: the Mobula has 5 weapons on the front, but none on the sides nor the back. It has great vertical movement, but is hard to repair in the heat of the battle.
