No Man’s Sky It’s been over eight years since it sent players on an interstellar journey, but explorers probably haven’t even discovered a tenth of this computer-generated universe yet. It expands the already massive game with a host of new gadgets, story-driven missions and new worlds to discover and explore.
of The World Part I Update Available Now No Man’s Sky On all consoles and PC In total there are over 40 new features, improvements, fixes and additions.
Several new world types have been added to the game’s already-popular 18 quintillion planets. One of the new world types is “gravity distortion,” which alters the terrain and creates floating islands that can be mined, modified, or used as platforms to build new bases in the sky. No Man’s Sky Some worlds have also been transformed into “sub-zero” landscapes with new plants, mineral formations and terrains. Some worlds have even spawned new life forms, including plant-animal hybrids with characteristics like “stamen-like whiskers” and “petal-like faces,” according to the official site.
of The World Part I The update also includes a host of graphical improvements and new features. Hello Games has given nearly every part of the game world a new look, from “new voluminous clouds” in the sky to “high-resolution and dynamic water” that’s more sensitive to wind, depth, and weather conditions.
Some planets have visually enhanced atmospheres, allowing you to create familiar weather such as rain and snow, as well as unusual conditions such as ash and ember fall and storm crystals. The update also delivers engine enhancements, improving the game’s graphics and performance, rendering environments faster and more vividly. There are also new sky and water colors for many of the space landscapes and horizons.
The new update is not just a cosmetic fix. The game also has some new toys that will help you change the terrain of planets and blow big holes in enemy spaceships. The coolest one is the Liquidator combat mech, which looks like a giant Imperial walker from Star Wars (if you chopped off its head and attached a pair of arms to each side). You can also attach weapons to the arms, such as the new Minotaur flamethrower, which can deal “very high damage at close range.”
The flamethrower will come in handy as you join the fray in new “Walker Battles,” where you’ll face off against new powerful Sentinel units, as well as the “Queen of Evil Insects” and hostile beetles (or the docile-but-still-burning ones). Once defeated, you’ll be able to turn their carcasses into trophies to display in your living space. If you want to give your explorer a more GWAR-esque look, you can also craft new creature-based accessories, like the “Chitin Flight Pack” and insect-based armor sets.
Additionally, there’s a new menu called “Weird Nutrients” to keep explorers full and healthy with ingredients like “nutritious slime,” “syrupy nectar,” and “juicy grubs.” These ingredients can be used to create new dishes like “slimy donuts,” “soaked pies,” and “juicy breasts,” making Scottish cuisine sound like a dish from The French Laundry.
Now you can acquire new items like insect-inspired armor and a flamethrower, you can put them to the test and eradicate invasive species in new story-driven missions like the “Vile Brood Nexus Mission.” Once you’ve acquired your Liquidator mech, you can head off on the “Bug Hunt Expedition” to eradicate gigantic, dangerous insects and other biological horrors.
Wow, this is a major update. No Man’s Sky It is known for its massive updates and patches that add tons of new stuff to the game’s virtual world. The version released in March added new features such as a ship editor and a new guild system. It introduced a new form of mechanical lifeform called the Autophage, multi-tool salvage, and graphical enhancements for the PlayStation VR 2.
