Hello!Thank you for your patience. Our biggest update yet launches in a little under a week on August 14th and we couldn’t be more excited to share this trailer with you, showing off the massively expanded online component of Beyond for the first time. BEYOND is the culmination of 12 months of work on what was originally going to be 3 large separate updates.The more we got into development however, the more those individual pieces started to coalesce and become interdependent on each other.Virtual Reality is cool and a major undertaking for a procedurally generated universe, but virtual reality becomes all the more enjoyable and immersive when you’re playing with friends, be they VR players or not.Bringing the social multiplayer enhancements we wanted to make together with VR seemed not only desirable and natural but unstoppable.Remember that everything you see in our launch trailer can be experienced in VR if you have a headset. We'll be telling you a little more about some other el... Read more

Hello Everyone!It’s quite amazing to look back and realise that since July this year we have released over a dozen free updates for No Man’s Sky.NEXT[www.nomanssky.com] was our largest update ever, introducing third person play, multiplayer, massive enhancements to base building, frigate fleets, and much more. Then in October, we added the Pilgrim exocraft[www.nomanssky.com] and made a number of general improvements to exocraft - including customisation, and a new buildable summoning station. Later that same month, we released another update - The Abyss[www.nomanssky.com] - that focused on eerie underwater visuals and gameplay, adding new environments, story missions, the Nautilon submarine, and more.We’re never quite sure what to expect when we release these updates, and the positive response from the community means so much to us.

The Anomaly itself cannot travel to this location, for fear of further alerting the Sentinels. Polo asks for help in finding this mysterious being - or in finding whatev... Read more

They are exhausted and disoriented, but triumphant: they have identified the exact origin of the logs left by their lost Traveller-friends, ultimately a question of "when", rather than where.Polo requests that participating explorers apply this specialised device to a number of transmission devices on a specific world, characterised by ove...
