More than eight years after first launching, No Man's Sky finally has a very positive rating on Steam, and one Hello Games dev promises there's still much more to come.
]]>It's N7 Day, that wonderful time of year when alien fanciers the world over come together, look at BioWare, and say 'come on then, do a thing'. Well, the good news is that this year, BioWare's done a thing with No Man's Sky developer Hello Games. As of today, Mass Effect's Normandy is back in NMS, arrving alongside some other new features.
]]>If you enjoy standing by virtual bodies of water and praying that you've picked the right worm to tempt what dwells within to take a little nibble, the latest update for No Man's Sky is definitely for you. Dubbed Aquarius, it arrives today, September 4, and is all about reeling in alien fish via a bunch of new mechanics.
]]>The latest update for No Man's Sky is dubbed the Worlds Update part one, and it looks like a pretty big one, even if as you can glean from its name, there's more to come in the future. For now, you can look forward to some hugely-revamped planet biome tech that should make things extra immersive, and a new expedition involving a flamethrower-packing mech suit.
]]>We’re long past the launch era of No Man’s Sky, but part of what defined it for many (outside of all the broken pre-release promises) was just how lonely it all felt. Back then, NPCs were a rarity, and so many of the systems and mechanics players associate with the game today had yet to be implemented.
]]>If you're a fan of cool space things and/or retro TV shows about rather tacky vehicle maintenance, here's some good news. A fresh update for No Man’s Sky, dubbed the Orbital update, arrives today - March 27. What does it do? Well, it lets you customise your spaceship, for one.
]]>Another day, another No Man's Sky update, with this particular one, Omega, allowing for anybody to try it out, completely free of charge.
]]>No Man's Sky is giving you a great reason to jump back into it over the holidays, as Hello Games is bringing back several expeditions for a limited time.
]]>No Man's Sky has been one of the best examples of a video redemption story, and developer Hello Games never stopped expanding the game with new content, and more features. Just recently, the procedural space adventure celebrated its seventh anniversary with the Echoes update, and it doesn't look like there's an end in sight to this support.
]]>No Man's Sky update 4.4, Echoes, is now available, and in it, you will come into contact with a secret society of robotic aliens.
]]>Hello Games has teased the future No Man's Sky update at the end of a seven year montage video released today, alongside the message "our journey continues" - hinting towards continued work on the sci-fi space adventure game.
]]>It seems like no matter how massive video game worlds get, developers continue to find ways to make them even larger. But the ways in which that is achieved vary from one game to another.
]]>No Man's Sky: Interceptor is the latest update coming to the vast space exploration game. Not only does it bring corrupted planets, new ships, and more content to the game, it also launches today!
]]>Hello Games has released the Fractal update for No Man's Sky.
]]>Tom's a bit smitten with PS VR2, but I, a Virtual Reality Sceptic, have my doubts. So Tom donned the headset in an attempt to convince me that yes, Sony's newest VR platform is the real deal, and well worth the buy-in. In fact, he says, it's the most exciting leap forward in gaming since Mario 64. But I have to wonder if this costly peripheral is more akin to the Mega Drive's 32X — an impressive add-on, but fiddly to use, and destined to have a limited library of b-tier exclusives and hasty ports. We argue about it in this video here:
]]>There's no greater fantasy in all of gaming than the best open-world games. Leading your character on an intrepid adventure that's wholly your own, exploring where you want to explore and making a memorable journey of the things you find is one of the most satisfying experiences you can have.

]]>Portals are extremely useful in No Man's Sky. Every planet has a set location described by glyph coordinates, so if you know where you want to go you can reach any planet in the game via a portal. This means you can track down ships, multi-tools and other points of interest by entering glyphs at a portal. Problem is, these portals aren't easy to find, and the method for finding them tends to change with each major update. To set the record straight we've put together this guide, which will contain everything you need to know.

]]>As part of the new Living Ships update, No Man's Sky just got a brand new story mission. It's called Starbirth and sends players on an intergalactic trading sequence of sorts. It takes a while to complete, and features new items and mechanics at times. We've put together a full walkthrough to help you get to the end.
]]>As part of the new update to No Man's Sky, players will need to craft a series of organic components, eventually assembling a new type of ship. The mission itself is a pretty long one, and it introduces a bunch of new items into the mix. For one of the components you'll need something called Living Water. Here's where to get it.
]]>The new Starbirth mission in No Man's Sky sends players on a wild goose chase across the universe. You're essentially building a new type of ship, and there are many different objectives to complete before you do. One involves an item called a Fragile Neural Stem, which you'll need to wait 21 hours for it to mature fully. There's a way to do this instantly, saving you a lot of time.
]]>The latest No Man's Sky update introduces a new class of biological ship and a new story mission.

In this No Man’s Sky Wiring Loom Guide, we’ll be taking a look at how to get Wiring Loom in No Man’s Sky. We’ll explain whether or not you can craft Wiring Loom, and whether there is a blueprint to track down.
