No Man's Sky: Breach update is here!



Inspired by the adventure and imagination that we love from classic science-fiction, No Man's Sky presents you with a galaxy to explore, filled with unique planets and lifeforms, and constant danger and action.

 

In No Man's Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose. Fly smoothly from deep space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens, and no limits. In this infinite procedurally generated universe, you'll discover places and creatures that no other players have seen before - and perhaps never will again.
 

Now including...

Play with all major updates since launch: Foundation, Pathfinder, Atlas Rises, NEXT, The Abyss, Visions, the 2.0 BEYOND update, Synthesis, Living Ship, Exo Mech, Desolation and the 3.0 update, ORIGINS, Next Generation, Companions, Expeditions, Prisms, Frontiers, Sentinel, Outlaws, Endurance, Waypoint (4.0), Fractal, Interceptor, Echoes, Omega, Orbital, Worlds Part I (5.0), Worlds Part II, Relics, Beacon and VOYAGERS (6.0).

And now with added Cross-Save! No Man’s Sky now supports Cross-Play and Cross-Save between a huge number of platforms including PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro, Xbox One and Series X/S, Game Pass, GOG, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, PlayStation VR 1 & 2 and PCVR.

 

Available for PC and Mac (see recommended and minimum specs for details).

 

An epic voyage to the centre of a shared universe awaits, allowing you to explore, trade, fight and survive alone or with friends.
 

Embark on an epic voyage

At the centre of the galaxy lies an irresistible pulse which draws you on a journey towards it to learn the true nature of the cosmos. But, facing hostile creatures and fierce pirates, you'll know that death comes at a cost, and survival will be down to the choices you make over how you upgrade your ship, your weapon and suit.
 

Find your own destiny

Your voyage through No Man's Sky is up to you. Will you be a fighter, preying on the weak and taking their riches, or taking out pirates for their bounties? Power is yours if you upgrade your ship for speed and weaponry.

 

Or a trader? Find rich resources on forgotten worlds and exploit them for the highest prices. Invest in more cargo space and you'll reap huge rewards.

Or perhaps an explorer? Go beyond the known frontier and discover places and things that no one has ever seen before. Upgrade your engines to jump ever farther, and strengthen your suit for survival in toxic environments that would kill the unwary.
 

Share your journey

The galaxy is a living, breathing place. Trade convoys travel between stars, factions vie for territory, pirates hunt the unwary, and the police are ever watching. Every other player lives in the same galaxy, and you can choose to share your discoveries with them on a map that spans known space. Perhaps you will see the results of their actions as well as your own...

Got my money's worth x29.99 more.

This game has siphoned so many hours of my life, in a good way! I don't play video games every day but when I'm tired, or when I'm bored, even tough I have a lot of games between gog and steam, I just start playing this game. This is without a doubt my pick up and play game. I don't think I reached end game quite yet because I get sidetrack by so many things.. but that's good as there is a lot of content in the game. I would give this game a 5/5 but that would be very biased so I'll be realistic and open and give this game a 4/5. Exploration really shines through here, the game uses some type of generation to give you different systems, worlds, fauna, and more. They did a great job with this game so no play through is ever the same when it comes to these things. There is some heavy lore that you have to seek out and learn about in game and online (I don't know if the online stuff is in the game as well.) but all in all, this game is exploration galore so enjoy a vast vast world(s). I cant say much here due to my personal setup but Performance is generally very good, despite sometimes being bugs and or memory leaks upon big updates. I play this game using a Framework 13 (on GNU+Linux) (i5-1240p / 32GB Ram / 1tb nvme) with an RX6700XT in a Razer Core X v2 eGPU enclosure. The game's settings are high (not ultra) with x16 Anistrophic filtering and FSR 2 on Quality. At the time of this review, I wish they would introduce FSR 3.1+ because 2.0 is not that great visually nor performative in my experience..Make sure you use Quality if you plan on using FSR 2.0 as Native is very taxing for some reason.. This game is not an MMO, closest thing to this game is kind of like a seamless live session where you invite or others invite you to their group, you go and free roam and or do missions. But you wont come across players in the open world unless you guys are in a group together. Which in my opinion its still great. Do yourself a favor and just buy it already.

No issues here...

...or I fixed them with normal gaming adjustments. 1) Poor frame rate? Force off in GFX Control Panel then set in game to 90 FPS. 2) OpenGL error? Go to No Man's SkyBinariesSETTINGSTKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML Change Full Screen to False and Boardless to True, change back to Fullscreen in-game, never worry again (caused by HDMI output). 3) Pre-ordered and got upgraded ship but lost Hyperdrive ability when sold? Don't accept DLC until you finish Blueprint quest. 4) Bored? This game is not for you...go play Call of Duty. I'm hooked, very immersive. This is exactly what I was looking for, no regrets. Great music that changes well depending on what you are doing. Good luck fellow travelers, hope this info helps.

Doesn't work on an AMD CPU

I would like to review this game, but unfortunately, it does not work for me at all. My rig runs Witcher 3, Fallout 4 at ultra settings, and plenty of other games, but simply will not run NMS. Fully updated drivers, yadda yadda. No go. I think they most likely did very little QA with optimizing for different MBs and CPUs. Beware if you have an AMD CPU, even if it's beefier than an i3, because as of right now, the game won't run for you (most likely). Maybe they'll fix this in future, but in the meantime, I've requested a refund.

I really love it

everyone is really mad about no online. that wasn't something I was really interested in about this game at all. I was always entranced at just how amazing and awe inspiring everything looked. After playing the game I am still just that way. It works fine on my computer, however it would be nice if they did choose to add real multiplayer somewhere along the line. if they do, its five stars

don't buy

Very weak game play, and terrible controls, terrible frame rate and it looks nothing like the the preview videos. It's very boring after the first hour or so, it may be great on the PS4 but it's not so good on the PC.
