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...

Definitive Space Exploration Simulator

Like many others I was duped into buying No Man's Sky at launch all the way back in 2016. Despite thoroughly enjoying the initial setup of repairing my ship and launching off into infinite space (core gaming memory right there); beyond that point, NMS used to be a total hot garbage mess of a game. How far it has come... Mysterious, captivating, complex, exciting, gratifying, addicting, larger than life. No Man's Sky has become everything it wasn't at launch, and has grown to become one of my most cherished gaming experiences of all time. The definitive space exploration simulator, if you will.

Best turnaround in history

It's a shame the rating is so low on this game. It must be from all those early reviews when the game failed to live up to the hype But there is never been a better time to play No Man's Sky. The devs didn't give up on it, they they just kept making it better and better. NMS is a whole bunch of games in one. You can enjoy endless exploration, base building, a rich universe with a cool back story, trading, and some combat (although the later isn't it's strong suit). With the new Origins update... there's even more to see and do BTW, I've originally bought this on Steam and that's the one I've been playing.... but when I saw the chance to get a DRM free copy on GOG for 1/2 price... I couldn't resist.

Potential for greatness

The GOOD: - Vast universe, freedom of making your own way. - Potential for coop is great. - Variety in aesthetics, most worlds have their own looks, tho a single biome. - Upgrade systems are intuitive, good tooltips The BAD: - After 20+ worlds, there's no new events, buildings or anomalies to catch your fancy. - The main plot is a bit hit and miss. Your options tend to be limited to Y/N, and the NPCs feel indifferent and sterile. No player agency. - The language system is just terrible. Going through all the creatures in the universe and asking each one individually to translate a single word seems like a fool's errand. Even the autotranslation software helps only a limited amount, and it doesn't store the translated words. - Some quests are a bit buggy, still. The requirement to have the mission set as 'active' can botch some quests something awful. One example was raiding a Sentinel supply depot for the Arms Vykeen, but it froze up since I blew up the depo before I had selected the mission as active. Also, the endgame event will crash if you have a black hole location lined up. I mostly ended up dying by having my ship ram into the freighter and get stuck; at times, the freighter dissapeared completely from view. The MIXED: - Space combat can be interesting, but I would like to see it in a bigger scale. - I love Freighters, but having a multimillion ship handed over to you for free seemed a bit odd, especially how many loops you had to run through to get the sub tech and buildings opened. The resource management for your fleet is also a blessing and a curse: having all your resources read for recipes and building is awesome; however, collecting resources from your frigates is a nuisance at best, as the storage caps at around a 100 units. You also need to land into your freighter every time to get a status report from your fleet, despite receiving constant status updates from the expeditions via GUI. - Got PK'd on my first online game. Didn't care for it.

May not be perfect but still...

By no means perfect, the game is still extremely good, with developers consistently adding new stuff for no charge. The experiencet totally worth the money you pay.
