With all the love for Battlefield and Call of Duty: Why does it always have to be conventional creaking? How about a multiplayer shooter where you can ride your own dragon? Century: Age of Ashes definitely brings an interesting twist to the Steam releases of the week.
But also for survival fans with Icarus, the new game by DayZ inventor Dean Hall, a potential hit is just around the corner. So it’s time for the new releases of the week: We have summarized all the interesting releases of the first week of December 2021 for you.
Highlight of the week: Icarus

Icarus: E3 gameplay trailer for the new survival game from the inventor of DayZ
Genre: Action-Simulation | developer: RocketWerkz | Release: December 4, 2021 | Give up: Steam
DayZ creator Dean Hall relies on dystopian SciFi instead of zombies with his new game Icarus. After a failed terraforming project on the “second earth”, the remaining resources must be looted. Alone or with up to seven other players, we go to the hostile planet.
Compared to other survival games like Rust, Icarus relies even more on time management. Here it is important not only to keep an eye on hunger, thirst and oxygen, but also to get back to the space station in good time, otherwise all progress will be lost. So when exploring, we should think carefully about what we want to collect and which battles we want to fight.
If we make it back to the space station in time, we can use our collected resources to unlock new technologies and plan further trips.
Highlight of the week: Century: Age of Ashes

Century: Age of Ashes trailer reveals the release date and cute mini-dragons
Genre: Multiplayer-Shooter | developer: PlaywingLTD | Release: December 2, 2021 | Give up: Steam
Century: Age of Ashes is a slightly different kind of multiplayer shooter. Here we don’t fight with assault rifles and grenade launchers like in Call of Duty & Co., but on the back of a dragon. We use the special skills of their classes in the team-based 6v6 aerial combat and unlock new customization options as the level rises. Century: Age of Ashes relies on a Free2Play model with an in-game shop.
