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.
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.
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.
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.
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...

Worth buying in 2019
Wow, what a difference a few years of actual, continious developer support makes. This game is nothing like the hot steaming mess of 2016, its actually fun, and the updates have made it into pretty much what we were sold 3 years ago. Recommended.

One of my all-time favorites
I've had it since launch day - first on PS4, now on PC from GOG. If you like sci-fi, exploration games, base-building construction games, but especially exploration games - this is for you. Finding and purchasing (now 9) cool ships to have on my Freighter, going from galaxy to galaxy, system to system and planet to planet gathering resources and cash, seeing the incredible sights and different biomes. I never get tired of it! My only minor complaint is a bit of environmental 'pop-in' of trees/grass etc. and a very occasional lag spike. Enthusiastically recommend!

I enjoyed it when it first came out...
I love it even more now. Hello Games just keeps on giving to the player-base! If you've doubted, try it out; you won't be disappointed.

Perfect exploration game
If you are looking for something low adrenaline to relax, this game has nice saturated & bright colors and is a great game with a unique experience. I guess the game mechanics were not too exciting at launch but on the current version this is a beautiful relaxing exploration game. It is nice sometimes to visit caves without enemies hiding there. Yes, the controls are unique but did not take me long to figure them out - can't say that is a significant issue. Haven't played enough to complain about repetition but the vastness of the universe helps to bring variety to the mining & building.

A big, yet beautifully shallow game
Stay away from this game if you: Exploration and Narrative -Expect a more story driven exploration game such as Outer Wilds, Subnautica, Pacific Drive. None of the procgen environment have any ties to the story whatsoever. -Dislike the extreme predictability of certain POIs -Dislike the lack of mystery of exploration due to overpowered scanners. Survival -Expect a survival experience in space and planets, you cannot die in space due to running out of fuel, you can only die in combat, since flying in space does not cost any fuel. As for planets, the survival portion of the game ends within 3 hours, from that point on your focus will shift to mining/crafting. - Expect extreme planetary environmental hazard, toxic/radiation are treated like hot and cold, you can always dig a hole down as solution to hazards. Neither did HG go all the way to make some of them as weird as real life (like Wasp 12b, TrES2b), in short no planets are too hazardous in this game. Base building and Settlements -Dislike Base building and Settlements never becomes large other than passive income and creativity, as they cannot be expanded to become a production base to fuel your other ventures. Combat -Dislike wonky flight model and AI, they like to fly out of your screen and ram into your starship over and over again. -Disklike fighting the same dreadnaught battle over and over again. - Expect good combat on ground, enemies like to spawn 5 meters within you when you are not looking, they are also blind. -Dislike enemy scaling to class of your weapons and starship Late game -Expect a solid late game with your hard-earned money for something bigger after you obtained your best ships/weapon, you retire instead. Do buy this game if you: -Like gorgeous procgen environments and feeling extremely good walking inside it -Like basebuilding and be creative about exterior / interior of your base
