Icarus is a Crucible map located in the Languid Sea on Mercury. Exclusive to the PlayStation 4, it is a solar-collection site.

Grimoire Description

ARENA DESIGNATION: Icarus

LOCATION: Caloris Basin, Mercury

This facility on Mercury has remained untouched by the Vex for reasons unknown. The Golden Age technology at this location remains intact, harnessing energy from the sun and converting it to Solar Light. The Vanguard has denied petitions from the various weapon foundries of the City to research the solar farm (and the resources it continues to collect) until the Warlock orders have finished their surveys. An exemption has been granted to Lord Shaxx and his Crucible: the Guardians are free to use Icarus as a live-fire training zone.

Strategies

The map possesses a circular design, which funnels players into confrontations at the map's center.

Trivia

The site is possibly named after the figure of the same name from Greek mythology, who lost his life due to flying to close to the sun.
