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...

Good game but still a mess

NMS is not a bad game, the core is good and Hello games have gone a long way to adding amazing features. I could play this game forever is what i would say if the game wasnt a janky mess. Every time I start NMS I have to do something in the settings to get it to run at an acceptable frame rate or get rid of a blank white screen. I would be more than willing to trade in the lovely new spacestations for a game that worked properly every time instead of being a crap shoot when you hit play. Refunded.

Poor performance hinders the game.

Bought this game on release. I'm a big fan of exploration/sci-fi space games. I really enjoyed the exploring part of the game. Finding minerals, crafting and naming species and places you discover. In that sense the game delivered what it promised. The problem is this game is unplayable in it's current state. I own a high end rig ( i7- 4790k, 16 GB RAM Corsair Vengence , GTX 980ti) so this game should run smooth as butter. Well guess what. On low-med settings I barely get 30 fps. If I get in to combat or start mining it drops to like below 20 fps. On high this game dips below 15 fps while I'm standing. I just can't get past these performance issues. Played for about 5 hours and that is it for me. Was realy looking forward to playing No man's sky but in this state this game is not worth buying on PC. Get it on PS4 where it runs better. Sadly I will request a refund because this game is not worth the money and time on PC.

Great Tech Design, not great Game Design

NMS has impressive tech, with ridiculous scale: from allowing you to tunnel through sections of massive planets to seamlessly flying your ship from one planet's surface to another and across space. Gameplay wise, NMS requires you to constantly collect resources and refill your life support and ship systems. Beacons and leaving your ship on foot trigger save locations so there are tensions when you go explore far on foot. Each planet has points of interest, which unfortunately do not vary drastically. As the game is developed by a small team, it's quite noticeable from the limited manually created content. Since the game is lite on solid gameplay design, it relies mostly on the user to make what they will out of the game. There is a lot of diversity of planets, but some planets will just feel the same regardless. You can viably spend your whole time discovering an entire planet, as the scale is that large.. just don't expect many crazy manually designed elements. If NMS is able to be supported with free content updates similar to games like Starbound, it could develop into a much richer gameplay experience, but as it is for now, your imagination and creativity based atop a gigantic canvas will be what propels the experience. **Note: For those not sure about Min Specs: When the game launched, NMS was extremely buggy and as one of the AMD processor people, I could not even launch the game. My system is older, but still runs current things fine. Early on I submitted a ticket for a refund, but GoG support said they couldn't get my system to run reliably and would only grant a refund for GoG-credit as a special case. So just have that in mind if you're not sure you can run the game with min specs. I hate to say this, but get the game on Steam if you're unsure on whether or not you can run the game as they refund in 2 hours of max gameplay. (Btw, the game works well now for me since Hello Games patched it this past week.)
