No Man's Sky WORLDS transforms the universe, bringing huge leaps in water and cloud quality, as well as increased planetary variety, new gameplay features, and more!

Worlds Part I represents the first component of the Worlds Update, with even more to come later in the summer. For full details please see www.nomanssky.com.

  • Total overhaul of water and cloud rendering, as well as other significant quality improvements and optimisations.
  • Boosted planetary variety with new biomes, new creatures, colour and lighting changes, and much more.
  • New gameplay features, including Solar ship crafting, aquatic landings, discovery renaming, new hostile creatures and more.
  • Expedition 14: Liquidators is a unique, action-packed experience with a raft of exclusive rewards.

Hello Games has been hard at work to improve and expand No Man's Sky. We hope you enjoy. :)

Thank you so much,

Hello Games

Apparently they made so much money up front with the game, and are such a small studio, that they can just do free updates basically forever and be fine. Plus, each update also brings new players.

@CitizenKong @jballs I understand that Sean would want to please those who were disappointed after the launch, but it says something about the lack of greed of Hello Games that they haven't charged for *any* update long after most would say that they've delivered on their original promise.

I don't play NMS all that much, but if they put out a Ko-Fi link or whatever and said "Hey, we wanna treat our hard working team to a nice Christmas bonus, but our funds are tied up in [payroll / new game development / whatever]; if you'd care to toss a few bucks their way, here's the link", I'd toss them $20 immediately. With all the enshittification of gaming going on right now, fuck yes I'd help those fucking beauties toward giving their families a nice holiday.

They're some fucking beauties is what they are.

Seriously, aren't the Hello Games team some fucking beauties?
