Dangerous Horizons Expansion

[hr][/hr]
New Map: Elysium


A entirely new 8x8km map made up of Desert, Tundra, Geothermal and Volcanic areas and, a first for Icarus, an NPC encampment. This map also features a few other unique gameplay modifications not seen before on other maps, waiting to be discovered.


[hr][/hr]
Creatures


Alongside the new environments, Elysium presents the player with a menagerie of new creatures to avoid, fight, tame, farm and ride. Many of these new creatures are fully-integrated with existing systems like the genetics system, and many can be tamed and have all new talent trees to discover.

[h2]New World Boss[/h2]

As with the other maps, Elysium features its own boss fight that will truly test the limits of your combat capability.


[h2]Tames and Mounts[/h2]

Elysium features many newly-discovered native fauna that prospectors can tame, from mischievous primates to menacing canines, towering camels and not to mention the fast and lethal raptors. All these creatures have their own unique talent tree of buffs and abilities.

[h3]Storka[/h3]
Storcas are mid-sized predators native to the tundra, built for agility and endurance in low-visibility conditions. As social creatures they are typically found in packs, making them particularly hazardous to wayward prospectors invading their territory.



[h3]Gribbler[/h3]
Gribblers are small, fur-covered omnivores that scuttle across the tundra with unnerving speed. You will occasionally catch them hanging from trees, and they've been known to throw sticks at unwary prospectors.



[h3]Skulk[/h3]
Stocky, low to the ground and armored with jagged dorsal spines, the Skulk is a predator built for ambush in the frozen wastes of Elysium. When tamed, they make an excellent guard dog.



[h3]Slinker[/h3]
The Slinker prowls the tundra biome, its sleek frame and low stance built for silent pursuit across frozen plains. Its camouflage makes it nearly invisible in twilight, striking fast from cover.



[h3]Raptor[/h3]
The Raptor is a swift, bipedal predator built for speed and endurance, using powerful legs and curved talons to strike prey with precision. Unlike other mounts, they can learn new attacks and be commanded to crouch or sneak.



[h3]Dune Raptor[/h3]
A subspecies of Raptor tailored to life in the desert, that if trained correctly can utilize a devastating fire attack.



[h3]Draven[/h3]
Dravens are hardy, thick-skinned desert dwellers built to endure the scorching winds and blistering heat of Icarus' arid biomes. Over time, environmental adaptation has thickened their hides and altered their physiology, making them far more resilient - and far less patient - than their ancestors.



Breeding & Husbandry
With the release of this patch, Raptors, Dune Raptors, and Slinkers can now be bred to produce offspring, each with their own Serums and unique phenotypes. Gribblers, like the Wolf, have also received new phenotypes that can be acquired through capture and taming.

We will continue to add breeding to more new and existing creatures in future updates.

[h2]Aggressive Wildlife[/h2]

Over 45 new creatures and variations have been added to Elysium, ranging from gentle deer to the terrifying Yeti. Each region offers unique wildlife, so thorough exploration is key to encountering them all. Many of these creatures feature new behaviours, adding both challenge and variety to your adventures across the planet.


[h2]Soldiers, Drones & Outposts[/h2]

In addition to the natural wildlife, prospectors will encounter hostile soldiers, their outposts, and drones scattered throughout Elysium. These hostile forces spawn in a manner similar to how beehives appear in the wild, creating dynamic encounters as you explore. Successfully locating and clearing their outposts rewards players with valuable resources, making these zones both dangerous but worthwhile. Be prepared for tactical combat, as drones and soldiers will actively defend their positions, adding a new layer of challenge to life on Elysium.


[hr][/hr]
New Vehicle: Hoverframe


The first terrestrial vehicle to be utilized planet-side on Icarus is a form of hover-bike. While not typically available to prospectors, a series of operations take you through the process of obtaining one through... less-typical means. It requires Refined Oil to run, can be picked up after placed down (though it is very heavy and requires a utility slot) and can be transferred off-world like any mount.


[hr][/hr]
Missions/Operations


Featuring an all-new mission chain that extends the story of Icarus, another side quest chain to unlock Icarus' first planetside vehicle, and many other side-quests, Dangerous Horizons adds 17 missions that take you on a journey across this new map, with unique rewards like the new hoverframe vehicle.


[hr][/hr]
Radioactive Zones


Some items, objects, and zones in Elysium are radioactive, creating a radial area of effect that slowly irradiates players. As radiation builds, prospectors will progress through stages of sickness: mild, acute, and terminal - each providing a progressively worse debuff. Protective gear such as the new Hazmat Suit or Containment Armor can help reduce radiation exposure, and several new medicines have been added to gradually remove accumulated radiation.


Within these radioactive zones are large uranium deposits. Uranium Extraction Units can be placed on these deposits to gather raw uranium, which is itself radioactive and must be processed before it can be used for crafting or further extraction.

Unique to radiation zones are several mutated creatures drawn to uranium extraction. These creatures will actively attack both prospectors and their extraction devices while active.


[h2]Uranium Processing[/h2]

Uranium extracted from these areas can be processed in a Nuclear Centrifuge, creating several by-products - some useful, some dangerous.



[h3]Uranium Rods[/h3]
These can be delivered back to the orbital workshop to be used as an exotic currency to purchase the newly available workshop gear or sold for Ren. These can also be used on planet to run a Nuclear Generator for a lot of electricity. Uranium Rods are Radioactive and will taint an area with radiation when stored in containers or carried in mounts or on prospectors.

[h3]Inert Uranium Ingots[/h3]
These are a core crafting component for a lot of the new equipment, deployables and items exclusive to Dangerous Horizons. These also offer the unique opportunity to be converted via the chemistry bench into other high tier materials, making them a true dynamic metal. These ingots are inert and can be safely stored without the risk of radiation tainting nearby objects.

[h3]Radioactive Waste[/h3]
A byproduct of processing uranium that will clog inventories and irradiate all objects and creatures around them. It is up to prospectors where and how they deicide to store or discard their waste.

[hr][/hr]
New Armors

[h3]Bastion Armor[/h3]
Crafted through a process of combining Uranium and Titanium, this creates a strong protective armor.

[h3]Hazmat Suit[/h3]
Offers complete protection against radiation and cave sickness at the cost of physical protection.

[h3]Containment Armor[/h3]
Adapted from Hazmat exosuits, this configuration crafted from Uranium and Synthetic Fibers keeps you mobile while minimizing exposure. The best storm protection available.

[h3]Stabilization Armor[/h3]
Uses advanced medical technology to provide chemicals directly into the bloodstream to promote recovery. Purchased for Ren and Uranium Exotics from the orbital workshop.



[hr][/hr]
Lasers

Dangerous Horizons introduces laser weapons to Icarus. The Laser Sidearm supports several attachments that let you modify the light emitted to deal Frost, Fire, Poison, or Electric damage, allowing you to tailor it to your target.

The Mining Laser gives prospectors a high-energy cutting beam designed to vaporize rock and reveal valuable ore with precision - all from a safe distance.


[hr][/hr]
Friendly NPC Encampment


A faction has established a base, Eden, in a rock formation in the deserts of Elysium prior to your arrival, and missions will ultimately take you there to rendezvous with an old friend.


[h2]Central Mission Hub[/h2]

Eden will serve as your central mission hub on Elysium as the C0NT4CT board and orbital exchange are initially unavailable.


[h2]Interactable NPCs[/h2]

After completing the Operations to unlock them, traders can be invited to live in Eden, creating a central on-base trading hub. Additionally, a Culinary Specialist has been added, running a small food shop that sells emergency provisions for Ren. We expect more traders and NPCs to be added to both Eden and the base game over time.


[hr][/hr]
Unique Resources

[h2]Lithium Tools Set[/h2]

As the primary material for a new tools set on Elysium, Lithium gear is powered, providing unique bonuses but requiring charging either at your base or in the field.

Like the Obsidian, Miasmic and Cold Steel Tools before it, each Lithium tool provides unique abilities when collecting resources.



Lithium Tool

Effect



Axe

Gain Organic Resin and Tree Sap when felling



Pickaxe

Gain Ionic Dust when mining



Sickle

Gain Tainted Plant DNA when reaping



Knife

Converts Bone & Leather into Carbon Paste when skinning



Sledgehammer

Gain Ionic Dust when breaking rocks


[h3]Ionic Dust[/h3]
This can be converted into Iron, Copper or Gold at the chemistry bench.

[h3]Tainted Plant DNA[/h3]
This can be infused with purple exotics to create Volatile Exotic Bulbs which which can be planted to produce a single harvest of Unstable Exotics, previously only found on Prometheus.



[h2]Lithium Bow + Crossbow[/h2]

A new pinnacle for string weapons crafted planetside, the Lithium Bow and Crossbow like other Lithium gear can utilize a charged battery to add electrical damage to their attacks, giving all arrows a chance to shock targets, affecting their movement speed and damage output.


[h2]Uranium[/h2]

Elysium is a source of a powerful new resource - Uranium. This is a core ingredient in everything from new ammunition, equipment and armor sets to hoverframes. It can even be processed and sent up to orbit as the latest exotic resource used in the orbital workshop. Unfortunately, it is highly radioactive and can only be unearthed in hazardous new zones found in this inhospitable new area.

[h2]Ruby[/h2]

Sourced from mining, Ruby Crystals can be shaped at the Glassworking Bench so they can be used in light focusing equipment - required by weapons like the Laser Sidearm and Mining Laser.


[hr][/hr]
And More...


[h3]Achievements[/h3]
Unlock 51 new achievements ranging from Jurassic Perks to Drill Baby Drill and Gone Fission, awarded for engaging with all Icarus' systems from animal taming, missions, fishing, exploration and much more.

[h3]Foods and Recipes[/h3]
Elysium has several new additions for those culinary adventurers as well, with four new plants and 20 new recipes utilizing them from Garlic Bread and Onion Rings to Tequila.


[hr][/hr]
The Free Kepler Update


While Elysium remains the exclusive destination for the Dangerous Horizons expansion, we’ve made many of the new items, resources, and core features available across every map. This ensures that the innovations we’ve built for our latest content can be enjoyed no matter where you play.

To keep our community together, we’ve maintained our 'Host-Owned' multiplayer policy: only the host needs to own the DLC for everyone in the session to enjoy its content. However, every DLC purchase funds the continued development of these free resource updates and the future of the game.

[hr][/hr]
Tier 5 Manufacturing


Tier 5 introduces the latest manufacturing technology available planetside. Crude Oil, its refining into Refined Oil, and by-products such as Plastics, Synthetics, Compounds, and a new bulk Epoxy recipe can be accessed across all regions of Icarus, giving prospectors and manufacturers new ways to craft advanced items and equipment.



[h2]Oil Deposits[/h2]

Oil deposits have been discovered across Olympus, Styx, and Prometheus, providing one of Tier 5’s most essential resources: Crude Oil. These deposits are key to advancing manufacturing capabilities and crafting some of the most advanced items in Icarus.

Crude Oil can be extracted using Pump Jacks and transported via piping to your refining facilities, where it can be processed into Refined Oil and a variety of valuable by-products.

Due to the addition of Oil Geysers this week there will be a FLOD reset, meaning on all existing prospects felled trees and mined rocks will respawn. This may cause some disruptions to bases but is a necessary cost for the Oil inclusion.




[h2]Oil Refinement[/h2]

Refined Oil can be obtained through two different methods using the new Tier 5 material processing machines: the Crude Oil Refiner and the Natural Oil Processor.

The Crude Oil Refiner produces Refined Oil directly from Crude Oil. This method requires locating an oil geyser and transporting the Refined Oil in barrels from a processing facility.

The Natural Oil Processor offers an alternative, converting Biofuel directly into Refined Oil. When connected to an Organic Extractor, which turns organic matter into Biofuel, it allows farmers to generate oil naturally and pipe it directly into the processor for continuous production.

Once refined, the oil can be used in a Polymerizer to craft Plastics, Synthetics, Compounds, and even a new bulk Epoxy recipe - perfect for those too busy to hunt Mammoths.

[h2]Industrial Equipment[/h2]

The absolute peak of planetside resource gathering tech is introduced in Tier 5 in the form of the Chainsaw and Jackhammer which run off Refined Oil. We also introduce the Nailgun, which when charged and stocked with nails, allows you to repair structures from afar. No more dangerous climbing to repair the ceiling in a storm.


[hr][/hr]
NPC Traders

[h3]12 New NPC Missions across Olympus, Styx & Prometheus[/h3]

While NPC Humans introduce a new threat with Kepler, not all of them are hostile.

New NPC traders have been added to Olympus, Styx, and Prometheus, and can be unlocked through new Operations. Once their respective Operation is completed, each trader will remain available, ready to exchange various raw materials for Ren.

Dedicated traders are available for Fish, Crops, and Animal Vestiges.


[h2]NPC Biomass Trader[/h2]

For prospectors who have defeated some of the greatest threats on Icarus, the NOREX Exchange offers a new opportunity.

Trade your Biomass for boss-specific items, allowing equipment that was previously uncraftable on certain maps to now be crafted across all maps.

Access is granted only once you’ve proven you’re up to the challenge.

[hr][/hr]
New Defensive Structures


[h2]Flame Turret and Tesla Coil[/h2]

For those who are absolutely confident in the flame-retardant nature of their base, the new flame turret and tesla coil are new additions to prospectors' base defense arsenal.


[h2]New Fortifications[/h2]

For those who prefer to take a more hands-on approach to base defense, all the existing fortifications are now available in stone and concrete variants with new platforms allowing you to navigate your walls more safely and target creatures outside the wall with much greater precision.


[hr][/hr]
New Building Pieces


One of our most frequently requested additions has been expanded building options - particularly curved structures. With the Kepler update, we’re introducing both curved and diagonal building pieces to give players greater flexibility in their designs.

In addition we have added two brand-new construction sets: Ice and Limestone.

The following construction sets now include curved pieces: Ice, Stone, Scoria, Glass, Stone Brick, Clay Brick, Scoria Brick, Tempered Glass, and Concrete.

Limestone is a brand resource found naturally on Elysium but can also be purchased from the orbital workshop for Ren. Limestone recipes include building materials and some alternate recipes for glass, steel and concrete.

[hr][/hr]
Workshop Saddles


With all the recent flexibility introduced with Mounts allowing you to take them down on a mission, players wanted to be able to land planetside with a saddle ready to go. There are now multiple options for Saddles you can purchase from the workshop and take down so you can land even more prepared to hit the ground running.


[hr][/hr]
New Armors


[h3]Resurgent Armor[/h3]
A synthetic bio-loop system turned for regenerative performance in hostile environments.

[h3]Dusty Miner Armor[/h3]
Specialised armor designed specifically for survival and resource retrieval in the caves of Icarus. Grants bonuses battling cave-based creatures and increased mining yield.



[hr][/hr]
New Attachments


Tier 5 also offers the new 'Specialist' tier of 15 brand new or upgraded tiers of attachment for your tools, weapons and armor.


[hr][/hr]
Next Week: Kepler Follow-up


Next week we'll add all the things that didn't make the cut for the Dangerous Horizons launch, plus any fixes required for issues identified at or soon after launch.
