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...

Too easy to get killed!
I got attacked by some animal on a new planet and lost all my stuff.

Broken game
Game is currently in a broken state, with many people reporting poor framerates and crashes, as well as not even being able to get past the main menu. Wait until this is patched

So much promise, yet such a bad game
I decided to re-download the game and give it another spin, since it has been a few months since the pathfinder update and between bug fixes and the update, it should be better optimised and have had some of the annoyances and bugs removed. I booted up the game to find out that this was indeed still not the case, you still have to wait 10m to load a new game from an SSD, then when you spawn into the game there is a 50/50 chance that you spawn on a planet that will kill you within the first 60s, with the exception that they now actually removed the starting base, so the death within 60s is now a for sure for sure thing. After about 30 minutes of new game starts to find a planet that isn't just endless death, I did find out that the energy drain is still on every single device you can carry and it drains quickly enough that you have to seek out and grind energy for your devices as the first thing before anything else. This is when I decided to put this game in the trash pile for good. Between the poor optimisation, the horrendous load times, the weird lag spikes and the otherwise terrible grindey nature of the game, I would have to say this is a do not buy. Better games are out there at a much lower price point and without the need to grind until you turn old and gray.

buggy and not worth playing
constant bugs, things dissappear, freighters get damaged and cant heal them. Would be a good game if it were for the bugs.

A good idea with bad design choices
The game is a very mixed bag, the core idea of quest based freeplay, driven by discovery and exploration in a sandbox universe (literally) is very appealing. The implementation though made me scream at the monitor. - the game is highly stylised, cartoon like to the point it looks childish sometimes. Recovered or intercepted log messages are written by 8yrs old, for 8yrs old. - everything is shrunken in size and very densely populated. Wherever you land, it's basically a zoo with dozens if not hundreds of critters and larger animals in sight. So called planets are small balls, don't make the impression of celestial bodies. You can take off and leave the atmosphere in 8 seconds. - after playing the game for 5 hours it seems like a never ending tutorial, this handholding becomes tedious quite fast. It's implemented in a deliberately "quirky" way, so I had to google basic things. - the space combat is impossible, for some reason you are flying in deep space as if in atmosphere and cannot turn while at speed. Enemies just appear from nowhere with no warning, outmaneuver you and eventually you die. Fun. - Controls. Controls is abhorrent (not movement, I mean to the menu system). It was made for idiots, perhaps they can use it, but normal people cannot. Nothing makes sense, nothing is logical, nothing is easy. You can craft some basic items in your inventory, and then there is a dedicated craft menu. You have to jump between the two to craft the required base items and then do the real crafting. Annoying to say the least. - The UI in general is clunky, everything is huge for the sake of being visible on TVs but on a monitor the inventory management or trading is a pain. Clearly the UI was made for consoles so if you are coming from the PC world you won't have good time. If you are buying this for your 10yr old to play on Xbox then perhaps it's a good game. If are a Tarkov guy and just want to try something else, then this game is probably not for you.
